mmap_disable=yes not honored always

<Sorry for the resend, it seems that the formatting of my original mail got garbled> Hi all, I'm experimenting with having the mail store on a 9p file system that lacks mmap() functionality. So I disabled it in dovecot: mmap_disable = yes However, I keep getting the following error messages in my log: Oct 15 16:55:00 computer-name dovecot: imap user(a)domain.com[192.168.1.3] Error: mmap() failed with file /mail/mailboxes/domain.com/user/indexpvt-accounts/other-user/mailboxes/… [View More]

[PATCH] [dovecot 2.2.9] Quota warnings ignored with FS quotas
by Grzegorz Nosek 06 Dec '15

06 Dec '15

Hi all, I noticed that in some circumstances quota warnings are ignored. The bug arises when both of the following are used: 1. percentage-based quota warnings, i.e.: quota_warning = storage=1%% quota-warning 1 %u 2. filesystem quota backend (and probably others, except for quotas configured directly in dovecot config) Percentage-based quota warnings have rule.bytes_limit recalculated based on root_set->default_rule.bytes_limit, however this value is zero when FS quotas are in … [View More]

SIS attachments compressed
by Juan Carlos Sanchez 06 Dec '15

06 Dec '15

Hello: In case it is defined to use zlib compression, does SIS save attachments compressed? I have found this question replied in the past (2012) and the answer was NO. I ask again just to know if there have been changes or if it is in the roadmap to add compression. I have been testing to migrate from maildir+zlib to mdbox+zlib+sis and the results, in terms of space used, and worst than using just mdbox+zlib (without SIS), and suppose the reason in the lack of compression in … [View More]

mailbox_list_index and maildir_very_dirty_syncs are in conflicts?
by Alessio Cecchi 06 Dec '15

06 Dec '15

Hi, I’m running Dovecot 2.2.19 with Maildir as storage and LDA for delivery. I noticed that if I set mailbox_list_index=yes and maildir_very_dirty_syncs=yes when I login via IMAP the STATUS command don’t “see” new messages in sub-folders (like Spam). Example, a new message as arrived in Spam folder (I can see in Maildir/new/) but IMAP STATUS don’t see it: . STATUS Spam (MESSAGES UNSEEN) * STATUS Spam (MESSAGES 139 UNSEEN 0) (in this case the date of “dovecot.list.index” files is not … [View More]updated) If I comment out mailbox_list_index=yes or maildir_very_dirty_syncs=yes I can see the new message: . STATUS Spam (MESSAGES UNSEEN) * STATUS Spam (MESSAGES 140 UNSEEN 1) (in this case the date of “dovecot.list.index” files is updated after the STATUS command) Instead the SELECT command works fine always. An importante note, my dovecot LDA configuration (on MX servers) don’t update index files: protocol lda { mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=MEMORY mail_plugins = quota acl expire fts fts_solr zlib sieve } These because I need to filter incoming email via Sieve but since I cannot use LMTP (and Director) on MX (but I have Director for POP/IMAP access) the only way for not corrupting dovecot.index files is not update their on delivery emails. But reading http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/Maildir this shouldn’t be a problem (Optimizations “maildir_very_dirty_syncs=yes” … It's still safe to deliver new mails to new/ …) since MX deliver new emails in new/. Is a Dovecot limit or is a problem of my configuration?

Released Pigeonhole v0.4.10.rc1 for Dovecot v2.2.20.rc1
by Stephan Bosch 04 Dec '15

04 Dec '15

Hello Dovecot users, Here's the Pigeonhole RC that goes with the Dovecot RC. There is a conflict with the t_str_trim() function. To be able to quickly release Dovecot, Timo has reverted the involved change so that 0.4.9 will still compile with the final Dovecot v2.2.20 release. This Pigeonhole RC will therefore not compile against the final Dovecot release (only against v2.2.20.rc1), which I will mend quickly once Dovecot v2.2.20 is released. Changelog v0.4.10.rc1: + Implemented the Sieve … [View More]mime and foreverypart extensions (RFC 5703). These are fully implemented. The interaction with the editheader extension needs some work, but this should not influence most uses; i.e., changes by the editheader extension are not always visible using foreverypart/mime. + Sieve body extension: Properly implemented the `:text' body transform. It now extracts text for HTML message parts. + Sieve enotify extension: mailto method: Implemented the sieve_notify_mailto_envelope_from setting. This allows configuring the source of the notification sender address for e-mail notifications. This is similar to what already can be configured for redirect. + Added a sieve_enabled (defaults to 'yes') setting that allows explicitly disabling Sieve processing for particular users. This used to be possible by setting `sieve=', but ever since the sieve_before, sieve_after and sieve_default settings were added, this method was not reliable anymore. - variables extension: Fixed handling of empty string by the `:length' set modifier. An empty string yielded an empty string rather than "0". - Fixed memory leak in the Sieve script byte code dumping facility. Extension contexts were never actually freed. - Fixed handling of implicit keep when the last Sieve script is a global one. In that case the implicit keep action was executed in global context, which could mean that trivial (quota) errors ended up in the system log file, rather than the user log file. - doveadm sieve plugin: Fixed crashes caused by incorrect context allocation in the sieve command implementations. The release is available as follows: http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.10… http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/releases/2.2/rc/dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.4.10… Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot v2.x wiki for more information. Have fun testing this release candidate and don't hesitate to notify me when there are any problems. Regards, -- Stephan Bosch stephan(a)rename-it.nl [View Less]

Content-Enconding

Hi, With Apache one may use "mod_deflate" in order to reduce bandwidth by using e.g. gzip to compress the http traffic. I would like to use something similar for email traffic between mail clients to dovecote and postfix. My questions are: a) Is this established well enough in most mail clients? b) Can you recomment a good tutorial for this? Thank you very much
