It fetches the message's GUID (Global UID), +which is used to identify any conflicting UIDs in messages. As long as the +source and destination side has matching UID<\->GUID mapping, those emails +are assumed to be synced correctly. Only after the first mismatch will +changes begin. +.IP +Example: Source mailbox has messages UID 1..5; source mailbox is sync'd +using +.B doveadm backup +to the destination. Subsequently, UID 6 is delivered to the source mailbox +and UID 1 is expunged from the destination mailbox. In this example, UID 1 +is kept removed (in destination) because UID 1..5 have identical +Date+Message\-ID headers. UID 6 is not seen in destination so it's copied. +.IP +If both source and destination have UID 6, but the messages are different, +the headers don't match and both the messages are kept in the destination but +they're given new UIDs 7 and 8 just to be sure any client didn't get confused +about what UID 6 actually was. Thus, one\-way sync begins to quickly diverge +from the source mailbox once changes start to occur on either side; one\-way +sync should therefore normally only be used within a short period of time +after a +.B doveadm backup +or +.B doveadm sync +command was used to synchronize the mailboxes. +.\"------------------------------------- +.RE +.PP +There are also three different synchronization algorithms: +.RS +.\"------------------------------------- +.IP \(bu +Full synchronization (\-f parameter) scans through all the messages in all +the mailboxes. +This guarantees that everything will be synchronized, but it\(aqs +unnecessarily slow for incremental synchronization. +.\"------------------------------------- +.IP \(bu +Fast synchronization (default) first attempts to find mailboxes that have +changed, and synchronize only those. +This is done by checking the mailboxes\(aq metadata (NEXTUID and +HIGHESTMODSEQ). +Usually this works fine, especially with one\-way synchronization, but if +both sides do exactly the same number of changes, the metadata may end up +containing the same values even if the changes were different. +.\"------------------------------------- +.IP \(bu +Stateful synchronization (\-s parameter) is the most efficient way to +synchronize mailboxes. +It relies on having the earlier dsync run\(aqs state saved somewhere and +being passed to the next dsync run. +Based on this state dsync can send only the changes that happened after the +previous dsync run. +As long as the state or the mailboxes aren\(aqt corrupted this algorithm +should work perfectly. +The replicator process uses this internally to perform most of the +synchronization. +.\"------------------------------------- +.RE +.PP +The syncing is done as perfectly as possible: an IMAP or a POP3 client +shouldn\(aqt be able to notice any differences between the two mailboxes. +Two\-way syncing means that it\(aqs safe to do any kind of modifications in +both sides, and dsync will merge the changes without losing any changes +done on either side. +This is possible because dsync can access Dovecot\(aqs index logs that keep +track of changes. +It\(aqs of course possible to have conflicts during merging, these are +resolved in a safe way. +See the +.I dsync design +document for more information. +.PP +dsync uses the same configuration files as the rest of Dovecot (via +.BR doveconf (1) +binary). +The entire configuration can be changed by giving \-c parameter to another +configuration file, or using \-o parameter to override specific settings. +When executing a remote dsync program it works the same way: +it uses its own local configuration. +.PP +dsync can be run completely standalone. +It doesn\(aqt require any Dovecot server processes to be running, except +when using \-u parameter to do a +.I userdb +lookup from auth process. +.PP +dsync can sync either one or multiple users using the \-u or \-A +parameters. +For continuous replication you can use the Dovecot replicator process, +which automatically runs dsync whenever messages have changed. +.\"------------------------------------------------------------------------ +@INCLUDE:global-options@ +.\" --- command specific options --- "/. +.PP +Command specific +.IR options : +@INCLUDE:option-A@ +.\"------------------------------------- +@INCLUDE:option-F-file@ +.\"------------------------------------- +.TP +.B \-1 +Do one\-way synchronization instead of two\-way synchronization. +.\"------------------------------------- +.TP +.B \-f +Do full synchronization. +.\"------------------------------------- +.TP +.B \-N +Synchronize all the available namespaces. +By default only namespaces that don\(aqt have explicit location setting +are synchronized. +.\"------------------------------------- +.TP +.B \-P +Run a +.BR doveadm\-purge (1) +for the destination (remote) storage after synchronization. +.\"------------------------------------- +.TP +.B \-R +Do a reverse sync.

The more you have to remember to maintain +security the easier it is to forget something. + + +Use Multiple Layers of Security +------------------------------- + +Input validation is useful to prevent clients from taking too much server +resources. Add the restrictions only where it's useful. For example a +simple "maximum line length" will limit the length of pretty much all +possible client input. + +Don't rely on input validation. Maybe you missed something. Maybe someone +calls your function somewhere else where you didn't originally intend it. +Maybe someone makes the input validation less restrictive for some reason. +Point is, it's not an excuse to cause a security hole just because input +wasn't what you expected it to be. + +Don't trust memory. If code somewhere overflowed a buffer, don't make it +easier to exploit it. For example if you have code: + + static char staticbuf[100]; + .. + char stackbuf[100]; + strcpy(stackbuf, staticbuf); + +Just because staticbuf was declared as [100], it doesn't mean it couldn't +contain more data. Overflowing static buffers can't be directly exploited, +but the strcpy() overflowing stackbuf makes it possible. Always copy data +with bounds checking. + + +Prevent Buffer Overflows +------------------------ + +Avoid writing to buffers directly. Write everything through buffer API +(lib/buffer.h) which guarantees protection against buffer overflows. +There are various safe string APIs as well (lib/str.h, lib/strfuncs.h). +Dovecot also provides a type safe array API (lib/array.h). + +If you do write to buffers directly, mark the code with /* @UNSAFE */ +unless it's _obviously_ safe. Only obviously safe code is calling a +function with (buffer, sizeof(buffer)) parameters. If you do _any_ +calculations with buffer size, mark it unsafe. + +Use const with buffers whenever you can. It guarantees that you can't +accidentally modify it. + +Use "char *" only for NUL-terminated strings. Use "unsigned char *" +if it's not guaranteed to be NUL-terminated. + + +Avoid free() +------------ + +Accessing freed memory is the most difficult problem to solve with C code. +Only real solution is to use garbage collector, but it's not possible to +write a portable GC without radical changes in how you write code. + +There are a few ways to avoid most free() calls however: data stack and +memory pools. + +Data stack works in somewhat similar way to C's control stack. alloca() is +quite near to what it does, but there's one major difference: Stack frames +are explicitly defined, so functions can return values allocated from data +stack. t_strdup_printf() call is an excellent example of why this is +useful. Rather than creating some arbitrary sized buffer and using +snprintf() which may truncate the value, you can just use t_strdup_printf() +without worrying about buffer sizes being large enough. + +Try to keep the allocations from data stack small, since the data stack's +highest memory usage size is kept for the rest of the process's lifetime. +The initial data stack size is 32kB and it should be enough in normal use. +See lib/data-stack.h. + +Memory pools are useful when you have to construct an object from multiple +pieces and you can free it all at once. Actually Dovecot's Memory Pool API +is just an abstract class for allocating memory. There's system_pool for +allocating memory with calloc(), realloc() and free() and you can create a +pool to allocate memory from data stack. If your function needs to allocate +memory for multiple objects, you may want to take struct pool as parameter +to allow caller to specify where the memory is allocated from. +See lib/mempool.h + + +Deinitialize safely +------------------- + +Whenever you free a pointer, set it to NULL. That way if you accidentally +try to free it again, it's less likely to cause a security hole. Dovecot +does this automatically with most of its free() calls, but you should also +make it a habit of making all your _destroy() functions take a +pointer-to-pointer parameter which you set to NULL. + +Don't Keep Secrets +------------------ + +We don't do anything special to protect ourself against read access buffer +overflows, so don't store anything sensitive in memory. We use multiple +processes to protect sensitive information between users. + +When dealing with passwords and such, erase them from memory after you +don't need it anymore.

If its +result tree is permanently saved, the following thread builds can be based +on it by updating the tree incrementally. + +Adding new messages to the tree is simple: simply follow the normal rules +as when building a new tree from scratch. Expunging messages gets more +problematic though. + +Each node in the tree keeps a "link reference count" which specifies how +many messages contain a "this message" -> "parent message" reference +(number of links to parent node). The first reference is usually added by +the message's own References: or In-Reply-To: header and the latter +references are added by References: headers. This link refcount must be +updated when adding and expunging messages. When the link refcount drops to +zero, the message becomes a root. The link refcount doesn't tell much about +the number of children the node has, because References: headers may +reference any number of its ancestors. + +The optimistic approach assumes that usually there are no problematic +links. In such case expunging a message simply updates the link refcounts +and marks the message's node as expunged. Expunged messages may still act +as dummy nodes. The node may be removed only after there are no nodes which +point to it. + +Problematic links are handled by marking nodes affected by them.

If a message referencing the looping path gets +expunged, the loop may break and the thread tree must be rebuilt. Because +it can't be determined easily which loops get broken by which expunges, +this case can be handled in a bit easier way: When detecting a loop between +parent and child, rebuild the tree if any link between the parent and child +gets unreferenced. + +3) A message changes its parent because an earlier message's References: +header contained a different link. If the message gets expunged, the thread +tree must be rebuilt to get the original parent back. + +4) A link in a message's References: header is ignored, because the +referenced child already specified a different parent to itself. If the +message gets expunged, the thread tree must be rebuilt to determine its new +parent. + +5) A link in a message's References: header is ignored, because an earlier +message's References: header already specified a different link.

The earlier message +could be found out quickly by keeping some extra state (or with a slow +scan), but since this is assumed to be a rare problem, there's an easier +(but less specific) way to handle this: Rebuild the tree if a link to the +child node is unreferenced (or alternatively if a link to the original +parent node is unreferenced, but it probably happens more often). + +Pseudocode: + +node { + parent: Pointer to parent node.

This means that giving somebody access to your INBOX will give them + access to all your other mailboxes as well, unless the specific mailboxes' + ACLs override the INBOX's. + +*NOTE*: Currently the default ACLs are merged with the mailbox-specific ACLs. +So if a default ACL gives access to "user1" and a per-mailbox ACL gives access +to "user2", the "user1" still has access to that mailbox. + +Global ACLs +----------- + +Global ACLs can be used to apply ACLs globally to all user's specific +mailboxes. They are used mainly for two purposes: + + 1. Removing some permissions from users' personal mailboxes. For example each + user might have an "Invoices" mailbox which will be read-only. + 2. Giving permissions to master user logins. See + <Authentication/MasterUsers#ACLs> [Authentication.MasterUsers.txt] for more + information. + +If a mailbox has both global ACLs and the per-mailbox ACL file, both of them +are read and the ACLs are merged. If there are any conflicts, the global ACL +file overrides per-mailbox ACL file. This is because users can modify their own +per-mailbox ACL files via IMAP ACL extension. Global ACLs can only be modified +by administrator, so users shouldn't be able to override them. + +Global ACL file (v2.2.11+) +-------------------------- + +Global ACL file path is specified as a parameter to vfile backend in 'acl' +setting ('/etc/dovecot/dovecot-acl' in the above example). The file contains +otherwise the same data as regular per-mailbox 'dovecot-acl' files, except each +line is prefixed by the mailbox name pattern. The pattern may contain "*" and +"?" wildcards. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +* user=foo lrw +Public user=bar lrwstipekxa +Public/* user=bar lrwstipekxa +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Global ACL directory (obsolete) +------------------------------- + +Global ACL directory is specified as a parameter to vfile backend in 'acl' +setting ('/etc/dovecot/acls/' in the above example). They are looked up using +the mailbox's virtual name. For example: + + * INBOX: '/etc/dovecot/acls/INBOX' + * archives.2007: '/etc/dovecot/acls/archives.2007' + * archives/2007: '/etc/dovecot/acls/archives/2007' + +The filenames must start with namespace prefix (if it has one). For example +with namespace 'prefix=INBOX/' containing mailbox "foo" use +'/etc/dovecot/acls/INBOX/foo'. + +There is an extra problem with mailbox formats that use '/' as the separator +(e.g. mbox, dbox): For example if you have mailboxes "foo" and "foo/bar" and +you wish to give ACLs to both of them, you can't create both +'/etc/dovecot/acls/foo' and '/etc/dovecot/acls/foo/bar' files. The 'foo' has to +be either a directory or a file, it can't be both. To solve this problem, you +can instead create a .DEFAULT file for "foo": + + * foo: '/etc/dovecot/acls/foo/.DEFAULT' + * foo/bar: '/etc/dovecot/acls/foo/bar' + +ACL files +--------- + +The files themselves are in format: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +<identifier> <ACLs> [:<named ACLs>] +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Where *identifier* is one of: + + * group-override=*group name* + * user=*user name* + * owner + * group=*group name* + * authenticated + * anyone (or anonymous, which is alias for anyone) + +The ACLS are processed in the precedence given above, so for example if you +have given read-access to a group, you can still remove that from specific +users inside the group. + +Group-override identifier allows you to override users' ACLs. Probably the most +useful reason to do this is to temporarily disable access for some users. For +example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +user=timo rw +group-override=tempdisabled +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Now if /timo/ is in /tempdisabled/ group, he has no access to the mailbox. This +wouldn't be possible with a normal group identifier, because the 'user=timo' +would override it. + +The currently supported ACLs and their corresponding named ACLs are: ++---+---------------+---------------------------------------------------------+ +| l | lookup | Mailbox is visible in mailbox list.

Checkpassword combines both the <password database> +[PasswordDatabase.txt] and <user database> [UserDatabase.txt] lookups into a +single checkpassword lookup, which makes the standard implementation unsuitable +for a standalone userdb. With Dovecot extensions it's also possible to use +checkpassword as a userdb. + +Typically you'll use <prefetch> [UserDatabase.Prefetch.txt] as the userdb, but +it's not required that you use the checkpassword script's userdb capabilities. +You can still use for example <static userdb> [UserDatabase.Static.txt] if +you're using only a single UID and GID, and your home directory fits into a +template. + +Security +-------- + +The standard checkpassword design is incompatible with Dovecot's security +model. If the system has local users and the checkpassword script setuid()s +into a local user, the user is able to ptrace into the communication and change +the authentication results. This is of course undesirable, so v2.2.7+ will just +refuse to run in such environments by default. The possibilities to solve this +are: + + 1. If possible, change the checkpassword to return 'userdb_uid' and + 'userdb_gid' extra fields instead of using 'setuid()' and 'setgid()'. This + also improves the performance. + 2. If you can't change the script, you can make Dovecot's + 'checkpassword-reply' binary setuid or setgid (e.g.'chgrp dovecot + /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/checkpassword-reply; chmod g+s + /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/checkpassword-reply') + 3. If you don't have any untrusted local users and you just don't care about + this check, you can set 'INSECURE_SETUID=1' environment e.g. with a wrapper + checkpassword script. + +Deliver +------- + +If your checkpassword script doesn't support Dovecot extensions, you can't use +it as a user database. This means that if you wish to use <LDA.txt>, you can't +use the '-d' parameter to do userdb lookups. There are two ways to solve this: + + 1. Use another userdb which does the lookup for deliver, for example <SQL> + [AuthDatabase.SQL.txt] or <static> [UserDatabase.Static.txt]. Add this + userdb after the prefetch userdb. + 2. Use a script to look up the user's home directory and run deliver without + '-d' parameter.

This makes Dovecot give + "Authentication failed" error to user. + * This error is returned both for password mismatch and also if the user + doesn't exist at all. Internally Dovecot maps this as password + mismatch. + * If you encounter an internal error, exit with code 111. This makes + Dovecot give "Temporary authentication failure" error to user. + * If the authentication succeeds, you'll need to: + * Set user's home directory to '$HOME' environment. This isn't required, + <but highly encouraged> [VirtualUsers.txt]. + * Set '$USER' environment variable. If the user name was changed (eg. if + you lowercased "Username" to "username"), you can tell about it to + Dovecot by setting '$USER' to the changed user name. + * Return the user's <UNIX UID and GID> [UserIds.txt] using 'userdb_uid' and + 'userdb_gid' environments and add them to the 'EXTRA' environment (see + below for Dovecot extensions). + * This is recommended over actually changing the UID/GID using + setuid()/setgid() as specified by the standard checkpassword + interface, because it's <incompatible with Dovecot's security model> + [AuthDatabase.CheckPassword.txt]. + * Your program received a path to 'checkpassword-reply' binary as the first + parameter.

See +<Authentication.PasswordSchemes.txt> for a list of supported password schemes. + +By default MySQL does case-insensitive string comparisons, so you may have a +problem if your users are logging with different as "user", "User" and "uSer". +To fix this, you can make the SQL database return a <"user" field> +[PasswordDatabase.ExtraFields.User.txt], which makes Dovecot modify the +username to the returned value. Note that if you're using separate user and +domain fields, a common problem is that you're returning only the "user" field +from the database.*This drops out the domain from the username*. So make sure +you're returning a concatenated user@domain string or username/domain fields +separately.

Change the SQL query to +return NULL as the password and return the row only if the password matches. +You'll also need to return a non-NULL "nopassword" field. The password is in +'%w' variable.

This means +user's UID, GID and home directory. If you're using only static UID and GID, +and your home directory can be specified with a template, you could use <static +userdb> [UserDatabase.Static.txt] instead. It is also a bit faster since it +avoids doing the userdb SQL query. + +'user_query' setting contains the SQL query to look up the userdb information. +The commonly returned userdb fields are uid, gid, home and mail.

The +following rules apply to using the authentication cache: + + * Data is used from the cache if it's not expired ('auth_cache_ttl' setting) + * If authentication fails this time, but it didn't fail last time, it's + assumed that the password has changed and a database lookup is done. + * If a database lookup fails because of some internal error, but data still + exists in the cache (even if expired), the cached data is used. This allows + Dovecot to log in some users even if the database is temporarily down. + +The authentication cache can be flushed by sending a SIGHUP to dovecot-auth. + +Sending SIGUSR2 to dovecot-auth makes it log the number of cache hits and +misses. You can use that information for tuning the cache size and TTL. + +Settings +-------- + +The settings related to the authentication cache are: + + * 'auth_cache_size': Authentication cache size, 0 disables caching (default). + A typical passdb cache entry is around 50 bytes and a typical userdb cache + entry is around 100-200 bytes, depending on the amount of information your + user and password database lookups return. + * 'auth_cache_ttl': Time to live in seconds for cache entries. A cache entry + is no longer used (except for internal failures) if it was created more than + this many seconds ago. Entries are removed from the cache only when the + cache is full and a new entry is to be added. + * 'auth_cache_negative_ttl': If a passdb or userdb lookup didn't return any + data (i.e. the user doesn't exist), it's also stored in the cache as a + negative entry. This setting allows you to give negative entries a different + TTL. 0 disables negative caching completely. + * 'auth_cache_verify_password_with_worker': Password hash verifications are + done by the auth master process by default. Setting this to "yes" moves the + verification to auth-worker processes. This allows distributing the hash + calculations to multiple CPU cores, which could make sense if strong hashes + are used. (v2.2.34+) + +It should be pretty safe to set very high TTLs, because the only field that +usually can change is the user's password, and Dovecot attempts to catch those +cases (see the rules above). + +Cache keys +---------- + +Usually only the username uniquely identifies a user, but in some setups you +may need something more, for example the remote IP address. For SQL and LDAP +lookups Dovecot figures this out automatically by using all the used +<%variables> [Variables.txt] as the cache key. For example if your SQL query +contains %s, %u and %r the cache entry is used only if all of them (service +name, username and remote IP) match for the new lookup. + +With other databases Dovecot doesn't know what could affect caching, so you +have to tell Dovecot manually.

Give the login username in the <SASL mechanism's> + [Authentication.Mechanisms.txt] authorization ID field. + 2. Specify both the master username and the login username in the same + username field. The usernames are separated by a string configured by the + 'auth_master_user_separator' setting. UW-IMAP uses "*" as the separator, so + that could be a good choice. Using "*" as the separator, the master user + would log in as "login_user*master_user". + +Master users are configured by adding a new <passdb> [PasswordDatabase.txt] +with 'master=yes' setting. The users in the master passdb cannot log in as +themselves, only as other people. That means they don't need to exist in the +<userdb> [UserDatabase.txt], because the userdb lookup is done only for the +user they're logging in as. + +You should also add the 'pass=yes' setting to the master passdb if possible. It +means that Dovecot verifies that the login user really exists before allowing +the master user to log in. Without the setting if a nonexistent login username +is given, depending on the configuration, it could either return an internal +login error (the userdb lookup failed) or create a whole new user (with eg. +<static userdb> [UserDatabase.Static.txt]). 'pass=yes' doesn't work with PAM or +LDAP with 'auth_bind=yes', because both of them require knowing the user's +password. + +'pass=yes' is especially useful with a <Checkpassword> +[PasswordDatabase.CheckPassword.txt] passdb because the script gets both the +login and the master username as environment variables. Other passdbs see only +the login username in '%u'. In the future there will probably be another +setting to make the user verification to be done from userdb. + +If you want master users to be able to log in as themselves, you'll need to +either add the user to the normal passdb or add the passdb to 'dovecot.conf' +twice, with and without 'master=yes'. Note that if the passdbs point to +different locations, the user can have a different password when logging in as +other users than when logging in as himself. This is a good idea since it can +avoid accidentally logging in as someone else. + +Usually it's better to have only a few special master users that are used +*only* to log in as other people. One example could be a special "spam" master +user that trains the users' spam filters by reading the messages from the +user's spam mailbox. + +ACLs +---- + +If <ACL.txt> plugin is enabled, the Master user is still subject to ACLs just +like any other user, which means that by default the master user has no access +to any mailboxes of the user.

This is also possible with Dovecot, but it requires manually setting up +the chroot and it can be a bit tricky. Dovecot however supports internally +running different parts of it in different chroots: + + * Login processes (imap-login, pop3-login) are chrooted by default into an + empty non-writable directory. + * Authentication process (dovecot-auth) can be chrooted by setting + 'chroot=<path>' inside 'service auth' and/or 'service auth-worker' sections. + This could be a good idea to change if you're not using a passdb or userdb + that needs to access files outside of the chroot. Also make sure not to run + the auth process as root then. + * Mail processes (imap, pop3) can be made to chroot in different ways. See + below. + +Security problems +----------------- + +If chrooting is used incorrectly, it allows local users to gain root +privileges. This is possible by hardlinking setuid binaries inside the chroot +jail and tricking them. There are at least two possibilities: + + 1. Hardlink '/bin/su' inside the chroot and create your own + '<chroot>/etc/passwd'. Then simply run 'su root'. + 2. Create your own '<chroot>/lib/libc.so' and run any setuid binary. + +Of course both of these require that the setuid binary can be run inside the +chroot. This isn't possible by default. Either user would have to find a +security hole from Dovecot, or the administrator would have had to set up +something special that allows running binaries. + +In any case it's a good idea not to allow users to hardlink setuid binaries +inside the chroots. The safest way to do this is to mount the filesystem with +"nosuid" option. + +Mail process chrooting +---------------------- + +Due to the potential security problem described above, Dovecot won't chroot +mail processes to directories which aren't listed in 'valid_chroot_dirs' +setting.

If +you are in a hurry, you can then jump to <QuickConfiguration.txt>. + + If you have installed some libraries into locations which require special +include or library paths, you can pass them in the 'CPPFLAGS' and 'LDFLAGS' +environment variables. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/openssl/include" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/openssl/lib" ./configure +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +You'll need to create two users for Dovecot's internal use: + + * *dovenull*: Used by untrusted imap-login and pop3-login processes + (default_login_user setting). + * *dovecot*: Used by slightly more trusted Dovecot processes + (default_internal_user setting). + +Both of them should also have their own *dovenull* and *dovecot* groups.

At the moment of this writing dovecot-10.rc26.src.rpm can +be found in the cooker subtree. If the current release is newer; updating the +source rpm is not difficult. Unpack the source rpm with 'rpm -ivh +dovecot-10.rc26.src.rpm' to a build environment (/usr/src/rpm...) Copy the +newer tarball from the dovecot site to the SOURCES directory of the build +environment.

Install them and +rerun the build process. The spec file also need updating for the new add-ons +(idxview and logview). + +SSL/TLS Support +=============== + +Dovecot was initially built to support both OpenSSL and GNUTLS. GNUTLS has +however had some problems and nowadays it does not work any more. Patches to +fix it are welcome. + +OpenSSL is used by default now, and it should be automatically detected. If it +is not, you are missing some header files or libraries, or they are just in a +non-standard path. Make sure you have the 'openssl-dev' or a similar package +installed, and if it is not in the standard location, set 'CPPFLAGS' and +'LDFLAGS' as shown in <the first section above.> [CompilingSource.txt] + +By default the SSL certificate is read from '/etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem' and +the private key from '/etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem'. The '/etc/ssl' directory +can be changed using the '--with-ssldir=DIR' configure option. Both can of +course be overridden from the configuration file. + +Solaris and OpenSSL problems +---------------------------- + +Solaris 10 includes a bundled OpenSSL that does not function correctly with +Dovecot when attempting to use SSL/TLS with the default dovecot config. This is +because the default setting of ssl_cipher_list in 'dovecot.conf' is HIGH:!ALL; +due to import restrictions in some countries (now apparently relaxed) the high +level routines are part of the unbundled SUNWcry package and are not available +if you don't have this package installed. This confuses the client as dovecot +announces support for high level crypto and then cannot deliver. In any case, +to resolve this you can alternatively (in decreasing order of simplicity): + + 1. Set 'ssl_cipher_list = MEDIUM:!LOW' in 'dovecot.conf' + 2. Find and install the missing SUNWcry package. + 3. Provide an alternate version of the openssl libraries that doesn't have the + high grade routines removed for your protection (sigh). The bundled version + of OpenSSL cannot be removed. Installing a newer OpenSSL from source or + package (for instance, from http://sunfreeware.com/) will enable Dovecot to + work correctly as long as you link against the new OpenSSL. Assuming you + are building with the built-in ld, make and gcc, then your build should go + something like this (notice the -R required by Sun's linker that sets the + runtime linking path in the resulting programs so the OpenSSL libraries + load from '/usr/local/ssl/lib'): + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +PATH=$PATH:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin +export PATH +mv /usr/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc /usr/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc.orig +CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/ssl/include \ + LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -R/usr/local/ssl/lib' \ + ./configure --with-ssl=openssl +make +make install +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Notify method +============= + +Linux +----- + +Note that current 'inotify' is in the Linux kernel since version 2.6.13 and it +is preferred over 'dnotify'.

Dropping this to + 32bit may save some memory, but it prevents accessing any file larger than 2 + GB. + +--with-mem-align=BYTES: + Specifies memory alignment used for memory allocations. It is needed with + many non-x86 systems and it should speed up x86 systems too. Default is 8, to + make sure 64bit memory accessing works. + +--with-ioloop=IOLOOP: + Specifies what I/O loop method to use. Possibilities are 'select', 'poll', + 'epoll' and 'kqueue'. The default is to use the best method available on your + system. + +--with-notify=NOTIFY: + Specifies what file system notification method to use. Possibilities are + 'dnotify', 'inotify' (both on Linux), 'kqueue' (FreeBSD) and 'none'. The + default is to use the best method available on your system.

This is especially useful if you want to +update the same section later on in the config. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace inbox { + inbox = yes +} +# ... +# possibly included from another file: +namespace inbox { + mailbox Trash { + special_use = \Trash + } +} +# The namespaces get merged into the same inbox namespace. +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Without naming the namespace it would have created a new namespace. The section +name may also sometimes be used as part of the settings instead of simply a +name. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +service auth { + unix_listener auth-master { + # .. + } +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Above the "auth-master" both uniquely identifies the section name, but also it +names the UNIX socket path. + +Filters +------- + +There are a few different filters that can be used to apply settings +conditionally. The filters look exactly like sections, which may be a bit +confusing. The currently supported filters are: + + * protocol <name>: Name of the service/protocol that is reading the settings. + For example: imap, pop3, doveadm, lmtp, lda + * remote <ip/network>: Remote client's IP/network. For non-TCP connections + this will never match. For example 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.0/16. + * local_name <name>: Matches TLS connection's SNI + [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication] name, if it's sent by + the client. Commonly used to <configure multiple TLS certificates> + [SSL.DovecotConfiguration.txt]. + * local <ip/range>: Locally connected IP/network. For non-TCP connections this + will never match. For example 127.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.0/16. + +These filters work for most of the settings, but most importantly auth settings +currently only support the protocol filter. Some of the other settings are also +global and can't be filtered, such as log_path. + +An example, which uses all of the filters: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +local 127.0.0.1 { + local_name imap.example.com { + remote 10.0.0.0/24 { + protocol imap { + # ... + } + } + } +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The nesting of the filters must be exactly in that order or the config parsing +will fail. + +When applying the settings, the settings within the most-specific filters +override the less-specific filter's settings, so the order of the filters in +config file doesn't matter. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +local 127.0.0.2 { + key = 127.0.0.2 +} +local 127.0.0.0/24 { + key = 127.0.0.0/24 +} +local 127.0.0.1 { + key = 127.0.0.1 +} +# The order of the above blocks doesn't matter: +# If local IP=127.0.0.1, key=127.0.0.1 +# If local IP=127.0.0.2, key=127.0.0.2 +# If local IP=127.0.0.3, key=127.0.0.0/24 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Similarly remote local filters override remote filters, which override +local_name filters, which override protocol filters. In some situations Dovecot +may also return an error if it detects that the same setting is being +ambiguously set by multiple matching filters. + +Including config files +---------------------- + +The main dovecot.conf file can also include other config files: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +!include local.conf +!include /path/to/another.conf +!include conf.d/*.conf +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The paths are relative to the currently parsed config file's directory. For +example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: +!include conf.d/imap.conf +# /etc/dovecot/conf.d/imap.conf: +!include imap2.conf +# /etc/dovecot/conf.d/imap2.conf is being included +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If any of the includes fail (e.g. file doesn't exist or permission denied), it +results in an error. It's not an error if wildcards don't result in any +matching files. To avoid these errors, you can use !include_try instead: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +!include_try passwords.conf +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Including a file preserves the context where it's included from. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +protocol imap { + plugin { +!include imap-plugin-settings.conf + } +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +External config files +--------------------- + +Due to historical reasons there are still some config files that are external +to the main dovecot.conf, which are typically named '*.conf.ext'. For example: + + * passdb/userdb { args } for ldap/sql points to a dovecot-ldap.conf.ext and + dovecot-sql.conf.ext. + * dict { .. } points to dovecot-dict-*.conf.ext + +Although these external config files look similar to the main dovecot.conf +file, they have quite a lot of differences in details. Their parsing is done +with a completely different config parser, so things like filters, $variables, +!includes and<files don't work. + +The external config files are also not loaded by the config process at startup, +but instead they're parsed whenever the value is being used. So the external +passdb/userdb files are loaded by auth process at startup, while the dict +config is loaded by dict process at startup. + +Eventually these external config files will hopefully be removed. + +Long lines +---------- + +It's possible to split the setting values into multiple lines. Unfortunately +this was broken for a long time, so outside *.conf.ext files this works only in +v2.2.22+: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# This works in *.conf.ext files, but in the main dovecot.conf only with +v2.2.22+: +setting_key = \ + long \ + value +# equivalent to: "long value" +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +All the whitespace between lines is converted to a single space regardless of +how many spaces or tabs are at the beginning of the line or before the '\'. +Even if there is zero whitespace a single space is added. + +Reading value from file +----------------------- + +It's possible to read the value for a setting from a file: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +key = </path/to/file +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The value is read exactly as the entire contents of the file. This includes all +the whitespace and newlines. The paths are relative to the currently parsed +config file's directory, similar to how !include works. The file is read +immediately whenever parsing the configuration file, so if it changes +afterwards it requires a configuration reload to see the changes. This +functionality is especially useful for reading SSL certificates and keys. + +Variable expansion +------------------ + +It's possible to refer to other earlier settings as $name. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +key = value1 +key2 = $key value2 +# Equivalent to key2 = value1 value2 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This is commonly used with mail_plugins settings to easily add more plugins +e.g. inside imap protocol: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_plugins = acl quota +protocol imap { + mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_acl imap_quota +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +However, you must be careful with the ordering of these in the configuration +file, because the $variables are expanded immediately while parsing the config +file and they're not updated later.

See +<Authentication.Mechanisms.txt> for a list of mechanisms supported by Dovecot. + +A new mechanism is created by filling a 'struct mech_module' (in 'mech.h') and +passing it to 'mech_register_module()'. The struct fields are: + +mech_name: + The public name of the mechanism. This is shown to clients in the IMAP, POP3 + and SMTP capability lists. If you create a new non-standard mechanism, please + prefix it with "X-". + +flags: + Describes how secure the mechanism is. Also 'MECH_SEC_PRIVATE' flag specifies + that the mechanism shouldn't be advertised in the capability list. This is + currently used only for APOP mechanism, which is defined by the POP3 protocol + itself. + +passdb_need_plain: + This mechanism uses passdb's 'verify_plain()' function to verify the + password's validity. This means that the mechanism has access to the + plaintext password. This is true only for plaintext mechanisms such as PLAIN + and LOGIN. The main purpose of this flag is to make dovecot-auth complain at + startup if there are no passdbs defined in the configuration file. Note that + a configuration without any passdbs is valid with eg. GSSAPI mechanism which + doesn't need a passdb at all. + +passdb_need_credentials: + This mechanism uses passdb's 'lookup_credentials()' function. See below for + description of the credentials. + +auth_new(): + Allocates a new 'struct auth_request'. Typically with more complex mechanisms + it really allocates a 'struct <mech>_auth_request' which contains 'struct + auth_request' as the first field, followed by mechanism-specific fields. + +auth_initial(request, data, data_size): + This begins the authentication, data and data_size containing the initial + response sent by the client (decoded, not in base64). Call + 'request->callback()' once you're done (see below). + +auth_continue(request, data, data_size): + Continues the authentication. Works the same as 'auth_initial()'. + +auth_free(): + Free the request. Usually all the memory allocations for the request should + be allocated from 'request->pool', so you can use 'mech_generic_auth_free()' + which simply frees the pool. + +'auth_initial()' and 'auth_continue()' continue or finish the authentication by +calling 'request->callback()': + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +typedef void mech_callback_t(struct auth_request *request, + enum auth_client_result result, + const void *reply, size_t reply_size); +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The 'reply' and 'reply_size' contain the server's mechanism-specific reply to +the client. If there is no need to return anything (which is usually the case +with the "success" reply), the 'reply_size' can be 0. The 'result' parameter is +one of: + + * AUTH_CLIENT_RESULT_CONTINUE: Client can continue the authentication. The + reply contains the mechanism-specific reply sent to the client. + * AUTH_CLIENT_RESULT_SUCCESS: Authentication successful. The reply is usually + empty. + * AUTH_CLIENT_RESULT_FAILURE: Authentication failed. The reply is always + ignored. + +The 'request->callback()' should actually be called directly only for +continuation requests (a new function should probably be added for this as +well). For success and failure replies, you should instead use one of these +functions: + + * 'auth_request_success()' + * 'auth_request_fail()' + * 'auth_request_internal_failure()': Use this if you couldn't figure out if + the authentication succeeded or failed, for example because passdb lookup + returned internal failure. + +SASL authentication in general works like: + + 1. Client begins the authentication, optionally sending an "initial response", + meaning some data that the mechanism sees in 'auth_initial()'. + * Note that not all protocols support the initial response. For example + IMAP supports it only if the server implements SASL-IR extension. + Because of this mechanisms, such as PLAIN, support doing the + authentication either in 'auth_initial()' or in 'auth_continue()'. + * If the client initiates the authentication (ie. server's initial reply + is empty, such as with PLAIN mechanism) you can use + 'mech_generic_auth_initial()' instead of implementing your own. + 2. Server processes the authentication request and replies back with + 'request->callback()'. + * If the authentication failed, it's placed into 'auth_failures_buf' + unless 'request->no_failure_delay=TRUE'. The failures are flushed from + the buffer once every 2 seconds to clients and 'mechanism->auth_free()' + is called. + * If the authentication succeeded and + * there is a master connection associated with the request (IMAP/POP3 + login), the authentication now waits for master connection to do a + verification request. If this for some reason doesn't happen in + 'AUTH_REQUEST_TIMEOUT' seconds (3,5 mins), it's freed. + * there isn't a master connection (SMTP AUTH), the authentication is + freed immediately. + 3. Client processes the reply: + * If the authentication continues, it sends back more data which is + processed in 'auth_continue()'. Goto 2. + * If the authentication failed, it's done. + 4. If the authentication succeeded, the client requests a login from the + master process, which in turn requests verification from the auth process. + * Besides verifying the authentication, dovecot-auth also does a userdb + lookup to return the userdb information to master. + * If the verification fails (normally because userdb lookup fails), the + client gets "internal authentication failure" + * If the verification succeeds, the user is now logged in + * In either case, 'mechanism->auth_free()' is called now. + +Credentials +----------- + +Most of the non-plaintext mechanisms need to verify the authentication by using +a special hash of the user's password. So either the passdb credentials lookup +returns a plaintext password from which the hash can be created, or the hash +directly. The plaintext to hash conversion is done by calling +'password_generate' function of the password scheme. + +Unfortunately the list of allowed credentials is currently hardcoded in 'enum +passdb_credentials'. The enum values are mapped to password scheme strings in +'passdb_credentials_to_str()'. Some day the enum will be removed so plugins can +add new mechanisms. Besides the mechanism-specific credentials, the enum +contains: + +_PASSDB_CREDENTIALS_INTERNAL: + I don't remember why this really exists. It should probably be called + _PASSDB_CREDENTIALS_INVALID or something and used only by some asserts.. + +PASSDB_CREDENTIALS_PLAINTEXT: + Request a plaintext password. + +PASSDB_CREDENTIALS_CRYPT: + Request the password in any scheme. This is especially useful if you only + want to verify a user's existence in a passdb. Used by <static userdb> + [UserDatabase.Static.txt] in userdb lookups. + +Password schemes +---------------- + +'struct password_scheme' has fields: + +name: + Name of the scheme. This only shows up in configuration files and maybe in + the passwords stored in passdb ("{scheme_name}password_hash"). + +password_verify(plaintext, password, user): + Returns TRUE if 'password' hash matches the plaintext password given in + 'plaintext' parameter. If the password hash depends on the username (eg. with + DIGEST-MD5), the 'user' parameter can also be used. + +password_generate(plaintext, user): + Returns the password hash for given plaintext password and username. + +You can create a new password scheme by simply creating a 'struct +password_scheme' named '<module_name>_scheme', compiling a shared object and +placing it to '$moduledir/auth/' directory. + +Password databases +------------------ + +See <PasswordDatabase.txt> for a description of passdbs and a list of already +implemented ones. + +'struct passdb_module' contains fields: + +cache_key: + A string containing <variables> [Variables.txt]. When expanded, it uniquely + identifies a passdb lookup. This is '%u' when the passdb lookup validity + depends only on the username. With more complex databases such as SQL and + LDAP this is created dynamically based on the password query in the + configuration file. If there are multiple variables, they should be separated + so that their contents don't get mixed, for example '%u<TAB>%r<TAB>%l'. + 'auth_cache_parse_key()' can be used to easily create a cache key from a + query string. + +default_pass_scheme: + The default scheme to use when it's not explicitly specified with a + "{scheme}" prefix. + +blocking: + If TRUE, the lookup is done in dovecot-auth worker process. This should be + used if the lookup may block. + +iface.preinit(auth_passdb, args): + Allocate 'struct passdb_module' and return it. This function is called before + chrooting and before privileges are dropped from dovecot-auth process, so if + should do things like read the configuration file.'auth_passdb' is typically + used for getting a memory pool and looking up some global settings such as + 'auth_passdb->auth->verbose_debug'. 'args' contains the args parameter in + configuration file. + +iface.init(module, args): + The privileges have been dropped before calling this. 'module' contains the + structure returned by 'preinit()'. 'args' is the same as in 'preinit()'. + Typically this function will do things like connect to the database. + +iface.deinit(module): + Close the connection to the password database and free all the memory you + used. + +iface.verify_plain(auth_request, password, callback): + Check if the given plaintext password matches. 'auth_request->credentials = + -1' always. When the verification is done, call the given callback with the + result in 'result' parameter. + +iface.lookup_credentials(auth_request, callback): + Look up the password credentials. 'auth_request->credentials' contains the + credentials that the mechanism wants. When the lookup is finished, call the + given callback with the result in 'result' parameter, and if the lookup was + successful the credentials in 'password' parameter. + +Plaintext authentication mechanisms typically call 'verify_plain()', which is +possible to implement with all the passdbs. Non-plaintext mechanisms typically +call 'lookup_credentials()', which isn't possible to implement always (eg. +PAM). If it's not possible to implement 'lookup_credentials()', you can leave +the pointer to it NULL. + +If the passdb uses connections to external services, it's preferred that they +use non-blocking connections. Dovecot does this whenever possible (PostgreSQL +and LDAP for example). If it's not possible, set 'blocking = TRUE'. + +With both functions 'auth_request->passdb->passdb' contains the passdb_module +returned by your 'preinit()' function. 'auth_request->user' contains the +username whose password we're verifying. You don't need to worry about <master +users> [MasterUsers.txt] here. It's also possible to use any other fields in +'auth_request' to do the lookup, such as 'service', 'local_ip' or 'remote_ip' +if they exist. Often you want to let user to configure the lookup with +<variables> [Variables.txt] (eg. SQL query).

Dovecot already has some patched-Clang-specific features to +get more warnings, and will likely have more in future. Issues found by static +analyzers should also be fixed in some way, e.g. adding extra asserts. + +Runtime errors should be caught by asserts or NULL pointer dereferences, which +cleanly crash the program instead of it continuing and possibly corrupting data +or causing other bad things. Dovecot's master process restarts the crashed +processes anyway. Obviously the master process should be very careful to avoid +crashing, but even then in some OSes a crashed Dovecot master gets restarted by +the init process. + +Dovecot's bottlenecks are primarily disk I/O and secondarily memory usage, so +using extra CPU for asserts and other extra checks costs practically nothing. + +Types +----- + + * Unsigned types are used whenever the value isn't allowed to be negative. + This makes it easier to do "value too large" checks when you don't also have + to check for negative values. Also in arithmetic it's better to have the + value wrap (and hopefully checked later!) than cause undefined behavior with + a signed integer overflow. + * 'char *' always points to a NUL-terminated string, 'unsigned char *' + doesn't. + * 'size_t' should generally be used when pointing to a large memory area, + especially for 'mmap()'. Since 'size_t' can be slower to access than + 'unsigned int' (or at least use memory), it's fine to use 'unsigned int' + when it's "very unlikely" that the size ever goes beyond 4 GB + (e.g.'string_t'). + * 'uoff_t' is used for file offsets/sizes. This is usually 64bit, even with + 32bit machines. + * 'uint32_t' vs. 'unsigned int': Use 'uint32_t' when the type really should be + 32bit, but don't spend too much energy trying to avoid mixing it with + 'unsigned int', since they are going to be the same types probably for the + rest of Dovecot's life.. + * 'uint8_t' vs. 'unsigned char': I doubt Dovecot will ever be compiled + anywhere where these differ from one another, but for readability use + 'uint8_t' for binary data and 'unsigned char' for text data. + +Function parameters +------------------- + + * Try to avoid using/allowing NULL pointers. For example for a public API + instead of having 'foo(struct bar *bar)' where bar can be NULL, you could + have both 'foo(void)' and 'foo_with_bar(struct bar *bar)'. Of course don't + try too hard if it makes the API otherwise ugly. + * Dovecot v2.2+ marks all such parameters with ATTR_NULL. These can be + verified with a patched clang. Unfortunately the API isn't very nice, it + would be better to mark each parameter separately with ATTR_NULL instead + of having a numbered list. This will likely change in future. + * Also unless you know that a parameter can be NULL, don't bother wasting + code on checking if it is. Ideally those are noticed by the patched clang + check, but even if not, it's not that bad to crash on NULL pointer + dereference. + * '_r' suffix in parameter is used for values that are returned (e.g. + 'foo(const char **error_r)'). + * Use const for pointers pretty much whenever possible. + * Some day in future I'd like compiler to give warnings if function parameters + are modified by the function itself. There's probably a lot of code that + does this currently, but try avoiding it in future. + +Function return values +---------------------- + + * 'int' type is commonly used for return values. Usually this is used to mean + one of: + * -1 = error, 0 = ok + * -1 = error, 0 = unfinished (e.g. non-blocking call), 1 = finished + * unfortunately there are also other uses. I've been wondering about using + different types for these some day, such as "err" and "err3", but haven't + figured out an easy enough to use design, especially one where compiler + verifies that types aren't accidentally mixed. + * 'bool' shouldn't be used as return value for ok/error, use int 0/-1 instead. + (Old code has some of these. Sometimes it's also not quite clear if + something is an "error" or not, so this rule isn't perfect.) + * Functions returning pointers shouldn't use NULL pointer to mean an error, + only for things like "not found". For example instead of 'if ((ctx = init()) + == NULL)' use 'if (init(&ctx) < 0)' + * Usually when calling a function, either save/check the return value or + explicitly say that you don't care about it by saying '(void)func();' + * Some functions where the return value can nearly always be ignored it's + annoying to add the '(void)' prefix. You can avoid these by adding + ATTR_NOWARN_UNUSED_RESULT to such function's prototype. A patched clang + can be used to find missing return value checks. + * If a system call fails unexpectedly, always log an error about it, possibly + even kill the process if it's vital for correct functionality + (e.g.'gettimeofday()'). '%m' in Dovecot's 'printf()'-style functions expands + to 'strerror(errno)'. + +Boolean expressions +------------------- + +Try to use boolean expressions the way they work in Java. C doesn't require +this, but I think it makes the code easier to understand and reduces bugs in +some cases (e.g.'if (!foo())' when thinking foo() returns bool/FALSE, but +actually returns int/-1 on error). We've a clang patch +[http://dovecot.org/patches/clang/] to give warnings in these cases. As +expected, it found quite a lot of bugs (some real bugs and a lot of "it just +accidentally worked" +[https://github.com/dovecot/core/commit/d9a7e950a9cd21f2b4a90ec7759fca9e8fcc7995]). + + * 'bool x' and 'bool x:1' are the boolean types + * TRUE and FALSE are the only valid explicit boolean values (not 0 or 1, and + currently also not true/false although that could be changed) + * !=, ==, <, >, etc. comparisons create a boolean + * if, for, while, etc. require a boolean + +So: + + * 'if (!ptr)' -> 'if (ptr == NULL)' + * 'if (!num)' -> 'if (num == 0)' + * 'if (flags & FLAG_FOO)' -> 'if ((flags & FLAG_FOO) != 0)' + +Memory +------ + +Memory is always allocated through one of Dovecot's wrappers, e.g. 'i_malloc()' +or 'i_new()'. All of Dovecot's memory allocations always succeed or kill the +process. There's no point in writing a lot of code to check for memory +allocation failures that happen just about never. The only reason some memory +allocations fail in Dovecot currently is because a process VSZ limit is +reached, which usually indicates either a memory leak or trying to access a +mailbox that is too large. In either of these cases it's better to just +completely restart the process than try to limp along without getting anything +useful done anymore. + +Memory allocations can be assumed to be zero-initialized. All of the memory +allocation functions do it, except 't_malloc()' and 't_buffer_get()', which you +should almost never use directly anyway. The code currently also assumes that +pointers in zero-initialized memory area are NULL, which isn't guaranteed by +ANSI-C, but practically Dovecot isn't going to be run in systems where it's not +true and you're not going to remember to NULL-initialize all of your pointers +anyway without compiler/runtime failure. + +When using a struct, always zero-initialize it with 'memset()' instead of +setting each field separately to 0. It's too easy to cause bugs by adding a new +field to the struct and forgetting to initialize it. + +Double-frees in C are bad. Better to crash with NULL pointer dereference than +possibly allow an attacker to exploit heap corruption and run executable code. +Most of the pointers are set to NULL when they are freed: + + * 'i_free_and_null()' is a macro to free the memory and set the pointer to + NULL. + * 'i_free()' also currently sets the pointer to NULL, but another thought was + to set this pointing to some other invalid pointer. But arguably this should + be defined to be exactly the same as 'i_free_and_null()'. + * Most deinit() functions take a pointer-to-pointer parameter and set the + original one to NULL. There's no need to explicitly set the same pointer to + NULL afterwards. + +Buffers +------- + +Use dynamically growing strings/buffers wherever necessary instead of a static +sized buffer, where on larger input the function fails or truncates the data. +It's of course not good to allow users to infinitely grow memory usage, so +there should be some limits added, but it shouldn't fail even if the limit is +set to infinite. + +Avoid explicitly calculating memory usage for allocations. If you do, mark it +with '/* @UNSAFE */' comment unless it's the calculation is "so obvious that +you see it's correct at the first glance". If in doubt, just mark it UNSAFE. +The idea is that anyone can easily grep for these and verify their correctness. + +Type safety +----------- + + * Try to avoid using void pointers. + * Try to avoid casting types to other types, especially if the cast isn't + necessary to avoid a compiler warning. + +It's better if compiler can give a warning when something is accidentally used +wrong. + +Callback functions +------------------ + +Callback functions make the code more difficult to follow, especially when a +callback calls another callback, or when using function pointers to jump to +different callbacks depending on state. Of course with asynchronous C code it's +pretty much impossible to avoid callbacks. Still, try to avoid them where +possible to keep the code readable. lib-fs/fs-api.h is an example API which +supports async operations but with a single common "do more now" callback +rather than every single operation having its own callback parameter.

The v2.2 design is somewhat +different. + +Two-way synchronization +----------------------- + +dsync attempts to preserve all changes done by both sides of the synced +mailboxes. + +Mailbox list +------------ + +Mailboxes have 128 bit globally unique IDs, which are used for figuring out +when two mailboxes should actually be synchronized. This solves two major +problems: + + * If mailbox has been renamed in one side, dsync finds it because its GUID + hasn't changed. + * If mailbox has been deleted and recreated, dsync doesn't attempt to sync it + because it's a different mailbox. + +Then there's the problem of how to correctly sync mailbox renames and +deletions. How do you know which side of the sync has the most recent name for +the mailbox? How do you know if one side had deleted mailbox, or if the other +side had created it? To solve these problems, Dovecot v2.0 created a "mailbox +log", which adds a record with mailbox GUID and timestamp whenever mailbox is +renamed or deleted. So: + + * If mailbox has different names on two sides, its "last renamed" timestamp is + looked up from the mailbox list index. The side with the most recent + timestamp is assumed to contain the newer name and the other side's mailbox + is renamed to it. + * If neither side has a "last renamed" timestamp, one side is picked. This + shouldn't happen, except when mailbox log is deleted for some reason or + if the renaming is done outside Dovecot. + * If mailbox exists only on one side, the other side checks if mailbox log + contains a delete record for its GUID. If there is one, the mailbox is + deleted from the other side. If there's not, the mailbox is created and + synced. + * Subscriptions and unsubscriptions are synced in a similar way. But because + it's possible to be subscribed to nonexistent mailboxes, mailbox log can't + contain mailbox GUIDs for them. Instead the first 128 bits of SHA1 of + mailbox name are used. Collisions for mailbox names are highly unlikely, but + even if one happens, the worst that can happen is that user gets + unsubscribed from wrong mailbox. + +dsync writes timestamps to changelog using the original timestamps, so that +dsync's changes won't override changes done by user during sync. + +Mailbox +------- + +When saving new mails, dsync preserves all of their immutable state: + + * GUID + * Received date + * Save date + * Message contents + +It also attempts preserve IMAP UID. This works as long as the other side hasn't +already used the UID for another mail. If it has, dsync doesn't attempt to +preserve the UID, because an IMAP client might have already seen the UID and +cached another mail's contents for it. IMAP requires that message's contents +must never change, so UIDs can't be reused. So whenever an UID conflict +happens, dsync gives messages in both sides a new UID, because it can't know +which message the client had seen, or perhaps user used two clients and both +saw a different message. (This assumes a master/slave replication use case for +dsync.) + +The mutable metadata that dsync preserves is: + + * Message flags and keywords + * Modification sequences (modseqs) + +Flags and keywords are synced based on modseqs. Whichever side has a higher +modseq for the message, its flags and keywords are synced to the other side. +Currently there's no per-flag or per-keyword synchronization, so that if one +side had added \Seen flag and other side had added \Answered flag, one of them +would be dropped. + +Finding what to sync +-------------------- + +dsync can run in full mode or fast mode. Full mode means it goes through all +messages in all mailboxes, making sure everything is fully synchronized. In +fast mode it relies on uidvalidity, uid-next and highest-modseq values to find +out changes. If any of the values changed, the mailbox is included in sync. + +FIXME: A superfast mode should still be implemented, where once a mailbox is +selected for syncing, it should sync only mails whose modseq is higher than a +given one. This would improve performance and network traffic with large +mailboxes. + +Copy optimizations +------------------ + +Before dsync actually starts syncing anything, it first fetched a list of all +to-be-synced messages and adds them to a GUID -> message hash table. Whenever +dsync needs to sync a new message to the other side, it first checks if the +message's GUID already exists on the other side. If it does, it starts a +message copy operation instead of a full save. It's possible that this copy +operation fails if the message just gets expunged from the other side, so there +needs to be fallback handling for this. If the message exists in multiple +mailboxes, a copy from the next mailbox is attempted. If all of them fail, +dsync fallbacks to saving the message. + +FIXME: This optimization currently works only in full sync mode. If this were +to work in fast sync mode, the full mailbox list would have to be looked up +from local side.

This will eventually +allow implementing things like machine-parseable (e.g. JSON) log lines +containing key=value pairs, while still keeping the human readable text +available. Each logging event can also be captured and sent to stats, even if +it's not actually logged. Commonly statistics-related events are logged with +debug level. + +Events have: + + * Categories, such as "storage", "mailbox" or "auth". + * Fields, such as 'user=foo@example.com' or 'service=imap'. + * Creation timestamp with microsecond precision. + * Source code file and line number location when sending the event. + * It may have an easy human-readable name. This is important for events that + are expected to be used for statistics, so they can be easily referred to. + * "Forced debug"-flag. Debug logging is enabled for this event regardless of + the global debug log filters. A child event will inherit this flag. + +Events are hierarchical, so they can have parent events. The events always +inherit all of their parents' categories and fields. A child event can replace +a parent's field, and it can also remove a parent's field with +'event_field_clear()'. Ideally most events would have a parent hierarchy that +reaches the top event that was created for the current user/session. This +allows statistics to track which events happened due to which users. In some +cases this may not really be possible, such as an HTTP connection that is +shared across multiple users in the same process. Generic libraries should take +the parent event in function parameters or in a settings struct or similar. + +An event's lifetime is usually the same as the "object" it attaches to. For +example an IMAP client connection should have a single event created at the +beginning of the connection and destroyed at disconnection. The IMAP client +connection event could be used for logging things like "Client connected" and +"Client disconnected" and perhaps some other connection-specific events. +However, most of the logging should be done by new events that have the IMAP +client connection event as their parent. For example IMAP command event should +exist during the execution of the IMAP command, and its parent should be the +IMAP client connection event. Note that there's an automatic "duration" +statistics field that is calculated from the creation of the event to the +(last) sending of the event, so for it to make sense the event lifetime and its +logging also needs to make sense. So for example if the IMAP client connection +event was used for logging many things throughout the session, the "duration" +field would make little sense for most of those events. + +Events are "sent" by logging it. Any e_debug(), e_info(), e_warning() or +e_error() call will also send the event, which may be redirected to the stats +process. Often events that are intended for statistics are sent using the +e_debug() call. The event can be sent to statistics even if it's not actually +logged. Avoid sending events excessively. For example an e_debug() call every +time connection reads or writes something will likely result in a huge amount +of unnecessary debug logging. + +Event names +----------- + +Events that are expected to be used in statistics should have a name. Be +consistent when naming the events. The name's prefix should be the subsystem +that is logging the event. Usually this would be the primary category of the +event. For example imap related events should begin with "imap_" and mailbox +related events begin with "mailbox_". + +The name should consist of only [a-z], [0-9] and '_' characters. + +Current naming conventions for name suffixes: + + * _connected (for connections) + * _disconnected (for connections) + * _finished (when some operation finishes, e.g. IMAP command or HTTP request) + * e.g. http_request_finished, dns_request_finished, imap_command_finished + * This should be used regardless of whether the operation succeeded or + failed. The details would be in fields. + * _retried (if an operation is internally retried one or more times before + it's finished) + +Categories +---------- + +The event categories are hierarchical. For example "mail" category has parent +"mailbox", which has parent "storage". If an event filter contains +"category:storage", it will match the "mail" and "mailbox" child categories as +well. + +Note that a category isn't the same as a service/process name. So for example +imap process has an "imap" category for its IMAP-related events, such as IMAP +client connection and IMAP command related events. Because most events would be +child events under these IMAP events, they would all inherit the "imap" +category. So it would appear that using "category:imap" filter would match most +of the logging from imap process. However, there would likely be some events +that wouldn't have the IMAP client as their parent event, so these wouldn't +match the imap category. + +The same category name must not be duplicated within the process. This is +because event handling is optimized and performs category checking by comparing +the categories' pointers, not names' strings. (Then again, if the struct +event_category variable names were consistent, you'd get duplicate symbol +errors from linker as well.) + +Be careful naming events that go through client and server boundaries. For +example if both lib-dns and dns service use "dns" as their category and also +have identically named "dns_lookup" event, there's no easy way to differentiate +in event filters between these two. So a statistics filter could end up +counting each DNS lookup twice. Since it's more difficult to remember to check +for event naming conflicts, it would be safer to use different category names +entirely. + +The category name should consist of only [a-z], [0-9] and '_' characters. + +Fields +------ + +Each event can have any number of key=value fields. Parent event's fields are +inherited by the child event. + +There are 3 types of fields: + + * strings + * numbers (intmax_t = signed 64bit usually) + * timestamp (struct timeval) + +The fields can be used for various purposes: + + * Filtering events with field_name=value matching + * Counting fields in statistics (most commonly number fields) + * They can include metadata that are internally used by the code. For example + passing data from one plugin to others. + * Later on these fields can be used by the logging system. + +Field names should be consistent across the code. Besides making it easier for +admins to configure the events, this allows statistics code to sum up fields +from different unrelated events. For example if all the networking events +include "ip", "bytes_in" and "bytes_out" fields, statistics can globally track +how much network traffic Dovecot is doing from its own point of view, +regardless of whether it's HTTP traffic or IMAP traffic or something else. + +Current naming conventions: + + * The name should consist of only [a-z], [0-9] and '_' characters. + * Timestamps should have "_time" suffix + * Durations should have "_usecs" suffix and be in microseconds. + * Try to avoid adding extra duration fields for most events. There's the + automatic "duration" field already that contains how long the event has + existed. So usually the event lifetime should be the same as the wanted + duration field. + * Incoming TCP/IP connections should have "remote_ip", "remote_port", + "local_ip" and "local_port" fields + * Outgoing TCP/IP connections should have "ip" and "port" for the remote side. + + * For local side "client_ip" and "client_port" may optionally be used + * NOTE: These are all different from incoming connection's IP/port fields. + This is because often everything starts from an incoming connection, + which will be used as the root event. So we may want to filter e.g. + outgoing HTTP events going to port 80 which were initiated from IMAP + clients that connected to port 993 (port=80 local_port=993) + * Connection reads/writes should be counted in "bytes_in" and "bytes_out" + fields + * These fields were chosen over e.g. network_in/out because a lot of code + is rather generic and can work over TCP/IP or UNIX sockets, or maybe even + any other kind of iostreams. Using a generic bytes_in/out makes it + simpler to count these. If further differentiation is wanted on + statistics side, networking events can be filtered out with "ip". + * These fields are usually easiest updated with 'event_add_int(event, + "bytes_in", istream->v_offset)' and 'event_add_int(event, "bytes_out", + ostream->offset)'. If iostreams aren't used, 'event_inc_int()' maybe be + easier. + * (Local) disk reads should have "disk_read" and "disk_write" fields + * With remote filesystems like NFS it may be difficult to differentiate + between disk IO and network IO. Generally the disk_read/write should be + used for POSIX read() and write() calls from filesystem. + * Counting only read()s and write()s doesn't necessarily translate to + actual disk IO since it may only be accessing the kernel page cache. + Still, this may be useful. + * There is a lot of disk IO performed all over the code, so Dovecot will + likely never include events for all disk reads/writes. + * error=<value> : The operation failed. The <value> may be simply "y" or + contain more details. This field shouldn't exist at all for successful + operations. + * error_code=<value> : Machine-readable error code for a failed operation. If + set, the "error" field must also be set. + +Note that events shouldn't be sent every time when receiving/sending network +traffic. Instead, the bytes_in/out fields should be updated internally so that +whenever the next event is sent it will have an updated traffic number. + +Generally it's not useful for events to be counting operations. Rather each +operation should be a separate event, and the statistics code should be the one +counting them. This way statistics can only be counting e.g. operations with +duration> 1 sec. If the statistics code was seeing only bulk operation counts +this wouldn't be possible. The bytes_in/out and such fields are more of an +exception, because it would be too inefficient to send individual events each +time those were updated. + +Note that even though internally updating a field for an event's parent will be +immediately visible to its children, the update won't be automatically sent to +the stats process. We may need to fix this if it becomes a problem. + +Field inheritance may become problematic also when multiple nested ioloops are +used. For example an outgoing imapc connection could receive a reply, which +synchronously triggers an outgoing quota SQL connection. The quota SQL +connection's parent event likely shouldn't be the imapc connection's event, +because otherwise they could be mixing the IP/port fields and perhaps others. +This isn't necessarily a problem though, but this is why when connection.c +performs outgoing UNIX socket connection it clears the IP/port fields to make +sure they don't exist for the connection event due to inheritance from a parent +event. + +Passthrough events +------------------ + +Passthrough events' main purpose is to make it easier to create temporary +events as part of the event parameter in e_error(), e_warning(), e_info() or +e_debug(). These passthrough events are automatically freed when the e_*() call +is finished. Because this makes the freeing less obvious, it should be avoided +outside e_*()'s event parameter. + +A passthrough event's creation timestamp is the same as the parent event's +timestamp, because its intention is to only complement it with additional +fields. This way the generated event "duration" field is preserved properly. + +The passthrough events also change the API to be more convenient towards being +used in a parameter. Instead of having to use e.g. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +event_add_str(event_set_name(event_create(parent), "name"), "key", "value") +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The event_passthrough API can be a bit more readable as: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +event_create_passthrough(parent)->set_name("name")->add_str("key", +"value")->event(). +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The passthrough event is converted to a normal event at the end with the +event() call. Note that this API works by modifying the last created +passthrough event, so it's not possible to have multiple passthrough events +created in parallel. + +Log prefixes +------------ + +Events allow replacing the current log prefix or appending to it. This way for +example opening a mailbox can add a "Mailbox<name>: " prefix and then use +'e_debug(box->event, ...)' without having to specify the mailbox name in every +log message. + +Global events +------------- + +Sometimes there's not really any specific event that a log message would belong +to, or it would be difficult to transfer the event there. In these cases the +old i_debug(), i_info(), i_error(), etc. logging calls can still be used. These +will be using the global event and its logging prefix. + +The global events are pushed/popped in a stack. For example with IMAP the +initial global event is the user's event. During IMAP command execution the +global event is the IMAP command event. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Design.Indexes.Cache.txt b/doc/wiki/Design.Indexes.Cache.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..45e75a7 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Design.Indexes.Cache.txt @@ -0,0 +1,137 @@ +Cache file +========== + +Cache file is used for storing immutable data. It supports several different +kinds of fields: + +MAIL_CACHE_FIELD_FIXED_SIZE: + The field size doesn't need to be stored in the cache file.

After the line + numbers comes the list of headers, including the "header-name: " prefix for + each line, LFs and the TABs or spaces for continued lines. + +The last 3 variable sized fields are treated identically by the cache file +code. Their main purpose is to make it easier for "dump cache file's contents" +programs ('src/util/idxview') to do their job. + +Locking +------- + +Because cache file is typically used in potentially long-running operations, +such as with IMAP command 'FETCH 1:* (BODY.PEEK[] ENVELOPE BODYSTRUCTURE)' it's +important that updating the cache file doesn't block out any other readers. +Also because the readers are often also writers (if something isn't cached, +it's added there), it's important that they don't block writers either. + +Reading cache files requires no locking. Writing is done by first locking the +file, reserving some space to write to, and immediately after that unlocking +the file. This way the transaction can keep writing to the cache file as long +as it wants to without blocking other writers. When the transaction is +committed, the updated cache offsets are written to the transaction log which +makes them visible to other processes. + +This also means that it's possible for two processes to write the same cached +fields twice to the cache file. Because the data written to the cache file are +really just cached data, the fields' contents are identical. Having the data +exist twice (or even more times) means wasting some disk space, but otherwise +it isn't a problem. The duplicates are dropped the next time the file is +compressed. + +Cache decisions +--------------- + +Dovecot tries to be smart about what it keeps in the cache file. If the client +never fetches the cached data, it's just waste of disk space and disk I/O. + +The caching decisions are: + +MAIL_CACHE_DECISION_NO: + This field isn't cached currently. + +MAIL_CACHE_DECISION_TEMP: + This field is cached for new mails. + +MAIL_CACHE_DECISION_YES: + This field is cached for all mails. + +Normally Dovecot changes the decisions based on what fields are fetched and for +what messages. A specific decision can be forced by ORing it with +'MAIL_CACHE_DECISION_FORCED'. + +'mail-cache-decisions.c' file contains the rules how Dovecot changes the +decisions. The following is copied from the file: + +Users can be divided to three groups: + + 1. Most users will use only a single IMAP client which caches everything + locally. For these users it's quite pointless to do any kind of caching as + it only wastes disk space. That might also mean more disk I/O. + 2. Some users use multiple IMAP clients which cache everything locally. These + could benefit from caching until all clients have fetched the data. After + that it's useless. + 3. Some clients don't do permanent local caching at all. For example Pine and + webmails. These clients would benefit from caching everything. Some locally + caching clients might also access some data from server again, such as when + searching messages. They could benefit from caching only these fields. + +After thinking about these a while, I figured out that people who care about +performance most will be using Dovecot optimized LDA anyway which updates the +indexes/cache immediately. In that case even the first user group would benefit +from caching the same way as second group. LDA reads the mail anyway, so it +might as well extract some information about it and store them into cache. + +So, group 1. and 2. could be optimally implemented by keeping things cached +only for a while. I thought a week would be good. When cache file is +compressed, everything older than week will be dropped. + +But how to figure out if user is in group 3? One quite easy rule would be to +see if client is accessing messages older than a week. But with only that rule +we might have already dropped useful cached data. It's not very nice if we have +to read and cache it twice. + +Most locally caching clients always fetch new messages (all but body) when they +see them. They fetch them in ascending order. Noncaching clients might fetch +messages in pretty much any order, as they usually don't fetch everything they +can, only what's visible in screen. Some will use server side sorting/threading +which also makes messages to be fetched in random order. Second rule would then +be that if a session doesn't fetch messages in ascending order, the fetched +field type will be permanently cached. + +So, we have three caching decisions: + + 1. Don't cache: Clients have never wanted the field + 2. Cache temporarily: Clients want this only once + 3. Cache permanently: Clients want this more than once + +Different mailboxes have different decisions. Different fields have different +decisions. + +There are some problems, such as if a client accesses message older than a +week, we can't know if user just started using a new client which is just +filling its local cache for the first time. Or it might be a client user hasn't +just used for over a week. In these cases we shouldn't have marked the field to +be permanently cached.

All the +updates to the main index files are first written to the transaction log, and +only after that the main index file is updated. There are several advantages to +this: + + * It provides atomic transactions: The transaction either succeeds, or it + doesn't. For example if a transaction sets a flag to one message and removes + it from another, it's guaranteed that both changes happen. + * When updating the changes to the main index file, the last thing that's + done is to update the "transaction log position" in the header. So if + Dovecot crashes after having updated only the first flag, the next time + the mailbox is opened both of the changes are done all over again. + * It allows another process to quickly see what changes have been made. For + example IMAP needs to get a list of external changes after each command. + * This is also important when storing the index files in NFS or in a + clustered filesystem. Instead of re-reading the whole index file after + each external change, Dovecot can simply read the new changes from the + transaction log and apply them to the in-memory copy of the main index. + In-memory caching of 'dovecot.index.cache' file also relies on the + transaction log telling what parts of the file has changed. + * In future the transaction logs can be somewhat easily used to implement + replication. + +Internal vs. external +--------------------- + +Transactions are either internal or external. The difference is that external +transactions describe changes that were already made to the mailbox, while +internal transactions are commands to do something to the mailbox. When +beginning to synchronize a mailbox with index files, the index file is first +updated with all the external changes, and the uncommitted internal +transactions are applied on top of them. + +When synchronizing the mailbox, using the synchronization transaction writes +only external transactions. Also if the index file is updated when saving new +mails to the mailbox, the append transactions must be external. This is because +the changes are already in the mailbox at the time the transaction is read. + +Reading and writing +------------------- + +Reading transaction logs doesn't require any locking at all. Writing is +exclusively locked using the index files' default lock method (as specified by +the 'lock_method' setting). + +A new log is created by first creating a 'dovecot.index.log.newlock' dotlock +file. Once you have the dotlock, check again that the 'dovecot.index.log' +wasn't created (or recreated) by another process. If not, go ahead and write +the log header to the dotlock file and finally 'rename()' it to +'dovecot.index.log'. + +Currently there doesn't exist actual transaction boundaries in the log file. +All the changes in a transaction are simply written as separate records to the +file. Each record begins with a 'struct mail_transaction_header', which +contains the record's size and type. The size is in <lockless integer format> +[Design.Indexes.txt]. + +The first transaction record is written with the size field being 0. Once the +whole transaction has been written, the 0 is updated with the actual size. This +way the transaction log readers won't see partial transactions because they +stop at the size=0 if the transaction isn't fully written yet. + +Note that because there are no transaction boundaries, there's a small race +condition here with mmap()ed log files: + + 1. Process A: write() half of the transaction + 2. Process B: mmap() the file. + 3. Process A: write() the rest of the transaction, updating the size=0 also + 4.

Should be fixed at some point anyway. + +Header +------ + +The transaction log's header never changes, except the indexid field may be +overwritten with 0 if the log is found to be corrupted. The fields are: + +major_version: + If this doesn't match 'MAIL_TRANSACTION_LOG_MAJOR_VERSION', don't try to + parse it. If Dovecot sees this, it'll recreate the log file. + +minor_version: + If this doesn't match 'MAIL_TRANSACTION_LOG_MINOR_VERSION', the log file + contains some backwards compatible changes. Currently you can just ignore + this field. + +hdr_size: + Size of the log file's header. Use this instead of 'sizeof(struct + mail_transaction_log_header)', so that it's possible to add new fields and + still be backwards compatible. + +indexid: + This field must match to main index file's indexid field. + +file_seq: + The file's creation sequence. Must be increasing. + +prev_file_seq, prev_file_offset: + Contains the sequence and offset of where the last transaction log ended. + When transaction log is rotated and the reader's "sync position" still points + to the previous log file, these fields allow it to easily check if there had + been any more changes in the previous file. + +create_stamp: + UNIX timestamp when the file was created. Used in determining when to rotate + the log file. + +Record header +------------- + +The transaction record header ('struct mail_transaction_header') contains +'size' and 'type' fields. The 'size' field is in <lockless integer format> +[Design.Indexes.txt]. A single transaction record may contain multiple changes +of the same type, although some types don't allow this. Because the size of the +transaction record for each type is known (or can be determined from the +type-specific record contents), the 'size' field can be used to figure out how +many changes need to be done. So for example a record can contain: + + * 'struct mail_transaction_header { type = MAIL_TRANSACTION_APPEND, size = + sizeof(struct mail_index_record) * 2 }' + * 'struct mail_index_record { uid = 1, flags = 0 } ' + * 'struct mail_index_record { uid = 2, flags = 0 } ' + +UIDs +---- + +Many record types contain 'uint32_t uid1, uid2' fields. This means that the +changes apply to all the messages in uid1..uid2 range. The messages don't +really have to exist in the range, so for example if the first messages in the +mailbox had UIDs 1, 100 and 1000, it would be possible to use uid1=1, uid2=1000 +to describe changes made to these 3 messages. This also means that it's safe to +write transactions describing changes to messages that were just expunged by +another process (and already written to the log file before our changes). + +Appends +------- + +As described above, the appends must be in external transactions. The append +transaction's contents is simply the 'struct mail_index_record', so it contains +only the message's UID and flags. The message contents aren't written to +transaction log. Also if the message had any keywords when it was appended, +they're in a separate transaction record. + +Expunges +-------- + +Because expunges actually destroy messages, they deserve some extra protection +to make it less likely to accidentally expunge wrong messages in case of for +example file corruption. The expunge transactions must have +'MAIL_TRANSACTION_EXPUNGE_PROT' ORed to the transaction type field. If an +expunge type is found without it, assume a corrupted transaction log. + +Flag changes +------------ + +The flag changes are described in: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +struct mail_transaction_flag_update { + uint32_t uid1, uid2; + uint8_t add_flags; + uint8_t remove_flags; + uint16_t padding; +}; +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The 'padding' is ignored completely. A single flag update structure can add new +flags or remove existing flags.

IMAP's 'STORE 1:* FLAGS (keyword)' +command), you'll first have to remove all of them with +'MAIL_TRANSACTION_KEYWORD_RESET' and then add the new keywords. + +Extensions +---------- + +Extension records allow creating and updating extension-specific header and +message record data. For example messages' offsets to cache file or mbox file +are stored in extensions. + +Whenever using an extension, you'll need to first write +'MAIL_TRANSACTION_EXT_INTRO' record. This is a bit kludgy and hopefully will be +replaced by something better in future. The intro contains: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +struct mail_transaction_ext_intro { + /* old extension: set ext_id. don't set name. + new extension: ext_id = (uint32_t)-1. give name. */ + uint32_t ext_id; + uint32_t reset_id; + uint32_t hdr_size; + uint16_t record_size; + uint16_t record_align; + uint16_t unused_padding; + uint16_t name_size; + /* unsigned char name[]; */ +}; +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If the extension already exists in the index file (it can't be removed), you +can use the 'ext_id' field directly. Otherwise you'll need to give a name to +the extension. It's always possible to just give the name if you don't know the +existing extension ID, but this uses more space of course. + +'reset_id' contains kind of a "transaction validity" field. It's updated with +'MAIL_TRANSACTION_EXT_RESET' record, which also causes the extension records' +contents to be zeroed. If an introduction's 'reset_id' doesn't match the last +EXT_RESET, it means that the extension changes are stale and they must be +ignored. For example: + + * 'dovecot.index.cache' file's 'file_seq' header is used as a 'reset_id'. + Initially it's 1. + * Process A: Begins a cache transaction, updating some fields in it. + * Process B: Decides to compress the cache file, and issues a 'reset_id = 2' + change. + * Process A: Commits the transaction with 'reset_id = 1', but the cache file + offsets point to the old file, so the changes must be ignored. + +'hdr_size' specifies the number of bytes the extension wants to have in the +index file's header.'record_size' specifies the number of bytes it wants to use +for each record. The sizes may grow or shrink any time.'record_align' contains +the required alignmentation for the field. For example if the extension +contains a 32bit integer, you want it to be 32bit aligned so that the process +won't crash in CPUs which require proper alignmentation.

It returns: + + * -2: Nothing was read, because buffer is full. + * -1: Either input reached EOF, or read failed and stream_errno was set. + * 0: Input stream is non-blocking, and no more input is available now. + * >0: Number of bytes read. + +Reading from a stream doesn't actually go forward in the stream, that needs to +be done manually with 'i_stream_skip()'. This makes it easy to read full data +records into the stream directly instead of creating separate buffers. For +example when reading line-based input you can keep reading input into the +stream until you find LF and then just access the string directly from the +input buffer. There are actually helper functions for +this:'i_stream_next_line()' attempts to return the next line if available, +'i_stream_read_next_line()' does the same but does a read to try to get the +data. + +Because more and more data can be read into the buffer, the buffer size is +typically limited, and once this limit is reached read returns -2. The buffer +size is usually given as parameter to the 'i_stream_create_*()', filters use +their parent stream's buffer size. The buffer size can be also changed with +'i_stream_set_max_buffer_size()'. Figuring out what the buffer size should be +depends on the situation. It should be large enough to contain all valid input, +but small enough that users can't cause a DoS by sending a too large record and +having Dovecot eat up all the memory. + +Once read returns -1, the stream has reached EOF. 'stream->eof=TRUE' is also +set. In this situation it's important to remember that there may still be data +available in the buffer. If 'i_stream_have_bytes_left()' returns FALSE, there +really isn't anything left to read. + +Whenever i_stream_read() returns >0, all the existing pointers are potentially +invalidated. v2.3+: When i_stream_read() returns<= 0, the data previously +returned by i_stream_get_data() are still valid, preserved in "snapshots". +(<v2.3 may or may not have invalidated them.) + +Example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +/* read line-based data from file_fd, buffer size has no limits */ +struct istream *input = i_stream_create_fd(file_fd, (size_t)-1, FALSE); +const char *line; + +/* return the last line also even if it doesn't end with LF. + this is generally a good idea when reading files (but not a good idea + when reading commands from e.g. socket). */ +i_stream_set_return_partial_line(input, TRUE); +while ((line = i_stream_read_next_line(input)) != NULL) { + /* handle line */ +} +i_stream_destroy(&input); +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Internals +--------- + +'lib/istream-internal.h' describes the internal API that input streams need to +implement. The methods that need to be implemented are: + + * 'read()' is the most important function. It can also be tricky to get it + completely bug-free. See the existing unit tests for other istreams and try + to test the edge cases as well (such as ability to read one byte at a time + and also with max buffer size of 1). When it needs to read from parent + streams, try to use 'i_stream_read_memarea(parent)' if possible so a new + snapshot isn't unnecessarily created (see the snapshot discussion below). + * 'seek(v_offset, mark)' seeks to given offset. The 'mark' parameter is + necessary only when it's difficult to seek backwards in the stream, such as + when reading compressed input. + * 'sync()' removes everything from internal buffers, so that if the underlying + file has changed the changes get noticed immediately after sync. + * 'get_size(exact)' returns the size of the input stream, if it's known. If + 'exact=TRUE', the returned size must be the same how many bytes can be read + from the input. If 'exact=FALSE', the size is mainly used to compare against + another stat to see if the underlying input had changed. For example with + compressed input the size could be the compressed size. + * 'stat(exact)' stats the file, filling as much of the fields as makes sense. + 'st_size' field is filled the same way as with 'get_size()', or set to -1 if + it's unknown. + * 'snapshot(prev_snapshot)' creates a snapshot of the data that is currently + available via i_stream_get_data(), merges it with prev_snapshot (if any) and + returns the merged snapshot (see below more more details). + +There are some variables available: + + * 'buffer' contains pointer to the data. + * First 'skip' bytes of the buffer are already skipped over (with + 'i_stream_skip()' or seeking). + * Data up to 'pos' bytes (beginning after 'skip') in the buffer are available + with 'i_stream_get_data()'. If pos=skip, it means there is no available data + in the buffer. + +If your input stream needs a write buffer, you can use some of the common +helper functions and variables: + + * 'w_buffer' contain the pointer where you can write data. It should be kept + in sync with 'buffer'. + * 'buffer_size' specifies the buffer's size, and 'max_buffer_size' the max. + size the buffer can be grown to. + * 'i_stream_try_alloc(wanted_size, size_r)' can be used when you want to store + 'wanted_bytes' into 'w_buffer'. If the buffer isn't large enough for it, + it's grown if possible. The buffer isn't grown above the stream's max buffer + size. The returned 'size_r' specifies how many bytes are actually available + for writing at 'stream->w_buffer + stream->pos'. + * 'i_stream_alloc(size) is like 'i_stream_try_alloc()', except it always + succeeds allocating'size` bytes, even if it has to grow the buffer larger + then the stream's max buffer size. + * Lower-level memory allocation functions: + * 'i_stream_w_buffer_realloc(old_size)' reallocates 'w_buffer' to the + current 'buffer_size'. If memarea's refcount is 1, this can be done with + 'i_realloc()', otherwise new memory is allocated. + * 'i_stream_grow_buffer(bytes)' grows the 'w_buffer' by the given number of + bytes, if possible. It won't reach the stream's current max buffer size. + The caller must verify from 'buffer_size' how large the buffer became as + a result of this call. + * 'i_stream_compress()' attempts to compress the current 'w_buffer' by + removing already-skipped data with 'memmove()'. If 'skip' is 0, it does + nothing. Note that this function must not be called if 'memarea' has + refcount>1. Otherwise that could be modifying a snapshotted memarea. + +The snapshots have made implementing slightly more complicated than earlier. +There are a few different ways to implement istreams: + + * Always point 'buffer=w_buffer' and use 'i_stream_try_alloc()' and/or + 'i_stream_alloc()' to allocate the 'w_buffer'. The generic code will handle + all the snapshotting. Use 'i_stream_read_memarea()' to read data from parent + stream so multiple snapshots aren't unnecessarily created. + * Guarantee that if 'read()' returns <=0, the existing 'buffer' will stay + valid. Use 'ISTREAM_CREATE_FLAG_NOOP_SNAPSHOT' flag in 'i_stream_create()' + so your filter stream isn't unnecessarily snapshotted (or causing a panic + due to missing 'snapshot()' implementation). + * One way of doing this with filter streams is to read from the parent + stream via 'i_stream_read(parent)' and always use + 'buffer=i_stream_get_data(parent)'. The parent's snapshotting guarantees + that the buffer will stay valid. + * Implement the 'snapshot()' yourself in the stream. You'll need to create a + new memarea of the current data available via 'i_stream_get_data()' and it + must not change, i.e. most likely you'll need to duplicate the allocated + memory. Create a new 'struct istream_snapshot' and assign the allocated + memarea to its 'old_memarea'. Fill 'prev_snapshot' field and return your new + snapshot. The snapshot will be freed by the generic istream code either when + the next 'read()' returns >0 or when the istream is destroyed. + * Filter streams that only pass through parent stream's contents without + changes can just point to the parent stream. The default snapshotting causes + the parent to be snapshotted, so the filter stream can simply use + 'i_stream_read_memarea()' and point to the parent's buffer. + +When Dovecot is configured with '--enable-devel-checks', 'i_stream_read()' will +verify that the first and the last two bytes of the buffer didn't unexpectedly +change due to a 'read()'. While developing istream changes you should use this +to make sure the istream is working properly. Running the istream unit test +also via valgrind can also be used to verify that the buffer wasn't freed. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Design.Lua.txt b/doc/wiki/Design.Lua.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..805e00b --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Design.Lua.txt @@ -0,0 +1,249 @@ +Dovecot Lua support +=================== + +Since v2.3.0 dovecot supports Lua scripting.

The main two +problems with this are: + + 1. A lot of allocations and frees cause memory fragmentation. The longer a + process runs, the more it could have leaked memory because there are tiny + unused free spots all around in heap. + 2. Freeing memory is easy to forget, causing memory leaks. Sometimes it can be + accidentally done multiple times, causing a potential security hole. A lot + of free() calls all around in the code also makes the code more difficult + to read and write. + +The second problem could be solved with Boehm garbage collector, which Dovecot +can use optionally (prior to 2.3), but it's not very efficient. It also doesn't +help with the first problem. + +To reduce the problems caused by these issues, Dovecot has several ways to do +memory management. + +Common Design Decisions +----------------------- + +All memory allocations (with some exceptions in data stack) return memory +filled with NULs. This is also true for new memory when growing an allocated +memory with realloc. The zeroing reduces accidental use of uninitialized memory +and makes the code simpler since there is no need to explicitly set all fields +in allocated structs to zero/NULL. (I guess assuming that this works correctly +for NULLs isn't strictly ANSI-C compliant, but I don't see this assumption +breaking in any system anyone would really use Dovecot.) The zeroing is cheap +anyway. + +In out-of-memory situations memory allocation functions die internally by +calling 'i_fatal_status(FATAL_OUTOFMEM, ..)'. There are several reasons for +this: + + * Trying to handle malloc() failures explicitly would add a lot of error + handling code paths and make the code much more complex than necessary. + * In most systems malloc() rarely actually fails because the system has run + out of memory. Instead the kernel will just start killing processes. + * Typically when malloc() does fail, it's because the process's address space + limit is reached. Dovecot enforces these limits by default. Reaching it + could mean that the process was leaking memory and it should be killed. It + could also mean that the process is doing more work than anticipated and + that the limit should probably be increased. + * Even with perfect out-of-memory handling, the result isn't much better + anyway than the process dying. User isn't any happier by seeing "out of + memory" error than "server disconnected". + +When freeing memory, most functions usually also change the pointer to NULL. +This is also the reason why most APIs' deinit functions take pointer-to-pointer +parameter, so that when they're done they can change the original pointer to +NULL. + +malloc() Replacements +--------------------- + +'lib/imem.h' has replacements for all the common memory allocation functions: + + * 'malloc', 'calloc' -> 'i_malloc()' + * 'realloc()' -> 'i_realloc()' + * 'strdup()' -> 'i_strdup()' + * 'free()' -> 'i_free' + * etc. + +All memory allocation functions that begin with 'i_' prefix require that the +memory is later freed with 'i_free()'. If you actually want the freed pointer +to be set to NULL, use 'i_free_and_null()'. Currently 'i_free()' also changes +the pointer to NULL, but in future it might change to something else. + +Memory Pools +------------ + +'lib/mempool.h' defines API for allocating memory through memory pools. All +memory allocations actually go through memory pools. Even the 'i_*()' functions +get called through 'default_pool', which by default is 'system_pool' but can be +changed to another pool if wanted. All memory allocation functions that begin +with 'p_' prefix have a memory pool parameter, which it uses to allocate the +memory. + +Dovecot has many APIs that require you to specify a memory pool. Usually (but +not always) they don't bother freeing any memory from the pool, instead they +assume that more memory can be just allocated from the pool and the whole pool +is freed later. These pools are usually alloconly-pools, but can also be data +stack pools. See below. + +Alloc-only Pools +---------------- + +'pool_alloconly_create()' creates an allocate-only memory pool with a given +initial size. + +As the name says, alloconly-pools only support allocating more memory. As a +special case its last allocation can be freed.'p_realloc()' also tries to grow +the existing allocation only if it's the last allocation, otherwise it'll just +allocates new memory area and copies the data there. + +Initial memory pool sizes are often optimized in Dovecot to be set large enough +that in most situations the pool doesn't need to be grown. To make this easier, +when Dovecot is configured with --enable-devel-checks, it logs a warning each +time a memory pool is grown. The initial pool size shouldn't of course be made +too large, so usually I just pick some small initial guessed value and later if +I get too many "growing memory pool" warnings I start growing the pool sizes. +Sometimes there's just no good way to set the initial pool size and avoid the +warnings, in that situation you can prefix the pool's name with MEMPOOL_GROWING +and it doesn't log warnings. + +Alloconly-pools are commonly used for an object that builds its state from many +memory allocations, but doesn't change (much of) its state. It's a lot easier +when you can do a lot of small memory allocations and when destroying the +object you'll just free the memory pool. + +Data Stack +---------- + +'lib/data-stack.h' describes the low-level data stack functions. Data stack +works a bit like C's control stack.'alloca()' is quite near to what it does, +but there's one major difference: In data stack the stack frames are explicitly +defined, so functions can return values allocated from data +stack.'t_strdup_printf()' call is an excellent example of why this is useful. +Rather than creating some arbitrary sized buffer and using snprintf(), which +might truncate the value, you can just use t_strdup_printf() without worrying +about buffer sizes being large enough. + +Try to keep the allocations from data stack small, since the data stack's +highest memory usage size is kept for the rest of the process's lifetime. The +initial data stack size is 32kB, which should be enough in normal use. If +Dovecot is configured with --enable-devel-checks, it logs a warning each time +the data stack needs to be grown. + +Stack frames are preferably created using T_BEGIN/T_END block, for example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +T_BEGIN { + string_t *str1 = t_str_new(256); + string_t *str2 = t_str_new(256); + /* .. */ +} T_END; +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +In the above example two strings are allocated from data stack. They get freed +once the code goes past T_END, that's why the variables are preferably declared +inside the T_BEGIN/T_END block so they won't accidentally be used after they're +freed. + +T_BEGIN and T_END expand to 't_push()' and 't_pop()' calls and they must be +synchronized. Returning from the block without going past T_END is going to +cause Dovecot to panic in next T_END call with "Leaked t_pop() call" error. + +Memory allocations have similar disadvantages to alloc-only memory pools. +Allocations can't be grown, so with the above example if str1 grows past 256 +characters, it needs to be reallocated, which will cause it to forget about the +original 256 bytes and allocate 512 bytes more. + +Memory allocations from data stack often begin with 't_' prefix, meaning +"temporary". There are however many other functions that allocate memory from +data stack without mentioning it. Memory allocated from data stack is usually +returned as a const pointer, so that the caller doesn't try to free it (which +would cause a compiler warning). + +When should T_BEGIN/T_END used and when not? This is kind of black magic. In +general they shouldn't be used unless it's really necessary, because they make +the code more complex. But if the code is going through loops with many +iterations, where each iteration is allocating memory from data stack, running +each iteration inside its own stack frame would be a good idea to avoid +excessive memory usage. It's also difficult to guess how public APIs are being +used, so I've tried to make such API functions use their own private stack +frames. Dovecot's ioloop code also wraps all I/O callbacks and timeout +callbacks into their own stack frames, so you don't need to worry about them. + +You can create temporary memory pools from data stack too. Usually you should +be calling 'pool_datastack_create()' to generate a new pool, which also tries +to track that it's not being used unsafely across different stack frames. Some +low-level functions can also use 'unsafe_data_stack_pool' as the pool, which +doesn't do such tracking. + +Data stack's advantages over malloc(): + + * FAST, most of the time allocating memory means only updating a couple of + pointers and integers. Freeing memory all at once also is a fast operation. + * No need to 'free()' each allocation resulting in prettier code + * No memory leaks + * No memory fragmentation + +It also has some disadvantages: + + * Allocating memory inside loops can accidentally allocate a lot of memory + * Memory allocated from data stack can be accidentally stored into a permanent + location and accessed after it's already been freed. + * Debugging invalid memory usage may be difficult using existing tools + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Design.OutputStreams.txt b/doc/wiki/Design.OutputStreams.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..97bc741 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Design.OutputStreams.txt @@ -0,0 +1,96 @@ +Output Streams +============== + +'lib/ostream.h' describes Dovecot's output streams.

This is why +ostream-dot by default has called 'o_stream_set_finish_also_parent(FALSE)', so +finishing the ostream-dot won't finish the parent stream. Similarly +'connection.c' API sets 'o_stream_set_finish_via_child(FALSE)' so none of the +socket connections created via it will be finished even though one of their +sub-streams is finished. These functions may need to be called explicitly in +other situations. + +When doing a lot of writes, you can simplify the error handling by delaying the +error checking. Use the 'o_stream_nsend*()' functions and afterwards check the +error with 'o_stream_flush()' or 'o_stream_finish()'. If you forgot to do this +check before the ostream is destroyed, it will panic with:'output stream %s is +missing error handling' regardless of whether there is an error or not. If you +don't care about errors for the ostream (e.g. because it's a client socket and +there's nothing you can do about the write errors), you can use +'o_stream_set_no_error_handling()' to fully disable error checks. You can also +use 'o_stream_ignore_last_errors()' to ignore the errors so far, but not for +future writes. + +Writes are non-buffered by default. To add buffering, use 'o_stream_cork()' to +start buffering and 'o_stream_uncork()' to stop/flush. When output buffer gets +full, it's automatically flushed even while the stream is corked. The term +"cork" is used because with TCP connections the call actually sets/removes TCP +cork option. It's quite easy to forget to enable the corking with files, making +the performance worse. The corking/uncorking is done automatically when flush +callbacks are called. Using 'o_stream_uncork()' will trigger an automatic +'o_stream_flush()' but the error is ignored. This is why it acts similarly to +'o_stream_nsend*()', i.e. it requires another explicit 'o_stream_flush()', +'o_stream_finish()' or error ignoring before the ostream is destroyed. + +If output buffer's size isn't unlimited, the writes can also fail or be partial +because there's no more space in the buffer and 'write()' syscall is returning +'EAGAIN'. This of course doesn't happen with blocking fds (e.g. files), but you +need to handle this in some way with non-blocking network sockets. A common way +in Dovecot to handle this is to just use unlimited buffer sizes and after each +write check if the buffer size becomes too large, and when it does it stops +writing until more space is available. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Design.ParameterForwarding.txt b/doc/wiki/Design.ParameterForwarding.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..4413b58 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Design.ParameterForwarding.txt @@ -0,0 +1,65 @@ +Forwarding parameters in IMAP/POP3/LMTP/SMTP proxying +===================================================== + +Dovecot supports proxying various pieces of information and even variables for +various protocols when forwarding connection.It requires that the sender is +listed under 'trusted_networks'.

This is partially because it makes the code cleaner, but alsobecause it +allows setting up different privileges for each process. Themost important +processes are: + + * Master process (dovecot) + * Login processes (imap-login, pop3-login) + * Authentication process (dovecot-auth) + * Mail processes (imap, pop3) + +Master process +-------------- + +This process keeps all the other processes running. If a child process dies, +another one is restarted automatically. It always runs as root,unless you're +specifically running everything under a single normal UID. + +The master process reads the configuration file and exports the settings to +other processes via environment variables. + +All logging also goes through master process. This avoids problems with +rotating log files, as there's only a single process to send a signal toreopen +the log file. Also writing to the same log file (if not using syslog)isn't +necessarily safe to do in multiple processes concurrently. + +Making the logging go through master process also gives a couple of advantages +from security and reliability point of view: All log lines canbe prefixed with +the process's name and the username of the user who was logged in, withoutthe +possibility for the process itself to forge them. Flooding logs canalso be +prevented. By default Dovecot allows non-privileged processes towrite 10 lines +per second before it begins to delay reading their input,which finally causes +the badly behaving process to start blocking onwriting to stderr instead of +eating all the CPU and disk space. + +In the Dovecot 2.0 design, the master process is split to three parts: the +Masterprocess which does nothing more than keep the processes running, the +configprocess which handles reading the configuration file (supporting also eg. +SQL storages!) and the log process which handles the logging. + +Login processes +--------------- + +The login processes implement the required minimum of the IMAP and POP3 +protocolsbefore a user logs in successfully. There are separate processes (and +binaries) to handle IMAP and POP3 protocols. + +These processes are run with least possible privileges. Unfortunately the +default UNIX security model still allows them to do much more than theywould +have to: Accept new connections on a socket, connect to new UNIXsockets and +read and write to existing file descriptors. Still, the loginprocess is by +default run under a user account that has no special accessto anything, and +inside a non-writable chroot where only a couple of filesexist. Doing any +damage inside there should be difficult. + +When a new connection comes, one of the login processes accept()s it. After +that the client typically does nothing more than ask the server'scapability +list and then log in. The client may also start TLS sessionbefore logging in. + +Authentication is done by talking to the authentication process. The login +process is completely untrusted by the authentication process, so even if +anattacker is able to execute arbitrary code inside a login process, they won't +be able tolog in without a valid username and password. + +After receiving a successful authentication reply from the authentication +process, the login process sends the file descriptor to the master processwhich +creates a new mail process and transfers the fd into it. Before doingthat, the +master process verifies from the authentication process that theauthentication +really was successful. + +By default each login process will handle only a single connection and +afterwards kill itself (but see SSL proxying below). This way attacker can't +see other people'sconnections. This can however be disabled +('login_process_per_connection=no'), in which case the security of the design +suffers greatly. + +The login processes handle SSL/TLS connections themselves completely. They keep +proxying the connection to mail processes for the entire lifetime ofthe +connection. This way if a security hole is found from the SSL library,an +authenticated user still can't execute code outside the login process. + +See <LoginProcess.txt> for more information about different settings related to +login processes. + +Authentication process +---------------------- + +The authentication process handles everything related to the actual +authentication: SASL authentication mechanisms, looking up and verifyingthe +passwords and looking up user information. + +It listens for two different kinds of connections: untrusted authentication +client connections (from login processes) and master connections (frommaster +process, but also from Dovecot LDA). The client connections are onlyallowed to +try to authenticate. The master connections are allowed to askif an +authentication request with a given ID was successful, and also to lookup user +information based on a username. This user lookup feature is usedby Dovecot +LDA. + +Each client connection tells their process ID to the authentication process in +a handshake. If a connection with the same PID already exists, an erroris +logged and the new connection is refused. Although this makes DoSattacks +possible, it won't go unnoticed for long and I don't see this as areal issue +for now. + +Having the authentication process know the PID of the client connection allows +all authentication requests to be mapped to one specific client +connection.Since the master process knows the login process's real PID, it's +used whenasking from authentication process if the request was successful. This +makes it impossible for a login process to try to fake another login +process'slogin requests. Faking PIDs will also be quite pointless. + +Once the master process has done the verification request for a successful +authentication request, the request is freed from memory. The requests arealso +freed about 2 minutes after their creation, regardless of the statethey +currently are in. + +For blocking password and user database backends (eg. MySQL) separate "worker +processes" are used.

The message still exists on the disk. The next time Dovecot syncs the +mailbox (either the session that wrote the record or another one), it goes +through all the non-synchronized records in transaction log and applies the +requested changes to the backend mailbox.

Since the backend mailbox may have already changed, and syncing an +up-to-date mailbox is usually really cheap, there isn't much point in not +syncing mailbox immediately after opening.

This solution is often +employed for large Dovecot installations as a replacement for a hardware load +balancer. A common problem with such a reverse proxy +[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_proxy] is that Dovecot does not talk to +the client directly. This means that the connection information (IP:port) that +Dovecot uses for logging and authentication purposes points to the proxy, +rather than the real client. To solve this, the proxy needs to convey the +connection information to the backend somehow, so that that information is +available there. The developers of HAProxy defined a custom Proxy Protocol +[http://blog.haproxy.com/haproxy/proxy-protocol/] for this purpose. By this +protocol, the proxy sends the connection information immediately after +connection setup in a special initial header. Note that this isn't normally +needed after the initial Dovecot proxies, because Dovecot internally uses +IMAP/POP3/LMTP extensions to forward the original IP address. Dovecot supports +both versions of the Proxy Protocol since Dovecot version 2.2.19. + +Dovecot Configuration +--------------------- + +The following global settings relate to HAProxy: + +haproxy_trusted_networks = : + A space-separated list of trusted network ranges for HAProxy connections. + Connections from networks outside these ranges to ports that are configured + for HAProxy are aborted immediately. + +haproxy_timeout = 3 : + The time in seconds after which a HAPRoxy connection is aborted when no + complete header is received. + +The HAPRoxy protocol can be enabled for specific <TCP listeners> +[Services.txt]. This way, a service such as IMAP or POP3 can accept both normal +and HAProxy connections. A TCP listener is configured for HAProxy by setting +'haproxy=yes' for that listener. If 'haproxy=yes' is set for a listener, its +use is mandatory on that port; i.e., if the client is not a proper proxy (its +omits the PROXY header), the connection will be aborted. + +For example, to enable normal IMAP connections on port 143, SSL connections on +port 993 and HAProxy connections on port 10143, the 'imap-login' service is +configured as follows: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +service imap-login { + inet_listener imap { + port = 143 + } + inet_listener imaps { + port = 993 + ssl = yes + } + inet_listener imap_haproxy { + port = 10143 + haproxy = yes + } +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +HAProxy Configuration +--------------------- + +The documentation of this feature on the HAProxy side is a bit fragmented +between the HAProxy Configuration Manual +[http://www.haproxy.org/download/1.6/doc/configuration.txt] and the Proxy +Protocol documentation +[http://www.haproxy.org/download/1.6/doc/proxy-protocol.txt].

This is why these operations are extremely fast with Dovecot compared +to other servers that don't use an equivalent index file. + +Mailbox synchronization +----------------------- + +The main index's header also contains mailbox syncing state: + + * Maildir: cur/ and new/ directories' timestamps + * mbox: mbox file's mtime and size + +The index file is synchronized against mailbox only if the syncing information +changes. + +Cache file +---------- + +Cache file may contain the following information for messages: + + * Message headers (some, not all) + * Sent date (parsed Date: header) + * Received date (IMAP's INTERNALDATE field) + * Physical and virtual message sizes + * Message's parsed MIME structure, allowing to quickly read only a specific + MIME part (IMAP's FETCH BODY[1.2.3] command) + * IMAP's BODY and BODYSTRUCTURE fields + * If both are used, only BODYSTRUCTURE is saved, since BODY can be + generated from it + * IMAP's ENVELOPE isn't cached currently. Instead the headers used to build it + are cached directly. + +IMAP clients can work in many different ways. There are basically 2 types: + + 1. Online clients that ask for the same information multiple times (eg. + webmails, Pine) + 2. Offline clients that usually download first some of the interesting message + headers and only after that the message bodies (possibly automatically, or + possibly only when the user opens the mail). Most IMAP clients behave like + this. + +Cache file is extremely helpful with the type 1 clients. The first time that +client requests message headers or some other metadata they're stored into the +cache file. The second time they ask for the same information Dovecot can now +get it quickly from the cache file instead of opening the message and parsing +the headers. + +For type 2 clients the cache file is helpful if they use multiple clients or if +the data was cached while the message was being saved (Dovecot v1.1+ can do +this). Some of the information is helpful in any case, for example it's +required to know the message's virtual size when downloading the message. +Without the virtual size being in cache Dovecot first has to read the whole +message to calculate it. + +Only the mailbox metadata that client(s) have asked for earlier are stored into +cache file. This allows Dovecot to be adaptive to different clients' needs and +still not waste disk space (and cause extra disk I/O!) for fields that client +never needs. + +Dovecot can cache fields either permanently or temporarily. Temporarily cached +fields are dropped from the cache file after about a week. Dovecot uses two +rules to determine when data should be cached permanently instead of +temporarily: + + 1. Client accessed messages in non-sequential order within this session. This + most likely means it doesn't have a local cache. + 2. Client accessed a message older than one week. + +<Design.Indexes.Cache.txt> explains the reasons for these rules. + +Transaction log +--------------- + +All changes to the main index go through transaction log first. This has two +advantages when the mailbox is accessed using multiple simultaneous +connections: + + 1. It allows getting a list of changes quickly so that IMAP clients can be + notified of the changes. An alternative would be to do a comparison of two + index mappings, which is what most other IMAP servers do. + 2. 'mmap_disable=yes' implementation relies on the transaction log. Instead of + re-reading the whole main index file after each change it's necessary to + only read a few bytes from the transaction log. + +In Dovecot v1.1+ the transaction log plays an even more important role. The +main index file is updated only "once in a while" to reduce disk writes, so it +is common to first read the main index and then apply new changes from the +transaction log on top of that. With empty mailboxes (eg. download+delete POP3 +users) it would even be possible to delete the whole main index and keep only +the transaction log (although this isn't done currently). + +List index +---------- + +Mailbox list index file is called dovecot.list.index[.log] and it basically +contains: + + * Header contains ID => name mapping. The name isn't the full mailbox name, + but rather each hierarchy level has its own ID and name. For example a + mailbox name "foo/bar" (with '/' as separator) would have separate IDs for + "foo" and "bar" names. + * The records contain { parent_uid, uid, name_id } field that can be used to + build the whole mailbox tree. parent_uid=0 means root, otherwise it's the + parent node's uid. + * Each record also contains GUID for each selectable mailbox. If a mailbox is + recreated using the same name, its GUID also changes. Note however that the + UID doesn't change, because the UID refers to the mailbox name, not to the + mailbox itself. + * The records may contain also extensions for allowing mailbox_get_status() to + return values directly from the mailbox list index. + * Storage backends may also add their own extensions to figure out if a record + is up to date. + +Settings +-------- + +Since v2.2.34+ you can configure some of the hardcoded optimization-related +settings. It's not recommended to change these settings without fully +understanding the consequences. + + * 'mail_cache_unaccessed_field_drop': Drop fields that haven't been accessed + for n seconds. + * 'mail_cache_record_max_size': If cache record becomes larger than this, + don't add it. + * 'mail_cache_compress_min_size': Never compress the file if it's smaller than + this. + * 'mail_cache_compress_delete_percentage': Compress the file when n% of + records are deleted (by count, not by size). + * 'mail_cache_compress_continued_percentage': Compress the file when n% of + rows contain continued rows. For example 200% means that the record has 2 + continued rows, i.e. it exists in 3 separate segments in the cache file. + * 'mail_cache_compress_header_continue_count': Compress the file when we need + to follow more than n next_offsets to find the latest cache header. + * 'mail_index_rewrite_min_log_bytes', 'mail_index_rewrite_max_log_bytes': + Rewrite the index when the number of bytes that needs to be read from the + .log on refresh is between these min/max values. + * 'mail_index_log_rotate_min_size', 'mail_index_log_rotate_max_size', + 'mail_index_log_rotate_min_age': Rotate transaction log after it's a) + min_size or larger and it was created at least min_age_secs or b) larger + than max_size. + * 'mail_index_log2_max_age': Delete .log.2 when it's older than + log2_stale_secs. Don't be too eager, because older files are useful for + QRESYNC and dsync. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/LDA.Exim.txt b/doc/wiki/LDA.Exim.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..1b2ab21 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/LDA.Exim.txt @@ -0,0 +1,163 @@ +Dovecot LDA with Exim +===================== + +System users +------------ + +Change the localuser router to use dovecot_delivery transport: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +localuser: + driver = accept + check_local_user +# local_part_suffix = +* : -* +# local_part_suffix_optional + transport = dovecot_delivery +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +'check_local_user' is required.

Nowadays you should probably use the <LMTP server> [LMTP.txt] +instead, because it's somewhat easier to configure (especially related to +permissions) and gives better performance. + +This page describes the common settings required to make LDA work.

The important +settings are: + + * 'postmaster_address' is used as the From: header address in bounce mails + * 'hostname' is used in generated Message-IDs and in Reporting-UA: header in + bounce mails + * 'sendmail_path' is used to send mails. Note that the default is + '/usr/sbin/sendmail', which doesn't necessarily work the same as + '/usr/lib/sendmail'. + * Alternatively you can use 'submission_host' to send mails via the + specified SMTP server. + * 'auth_socket_path' specifies the UNIX socket to auth-userdb where LDA can + lookup userdb information when '-d' parameter is used. See below how to + configure Dovecot to configure the socket. + +Note that the config files must be world readable to enable dovecot-lda process +read them, while running with user privileges. You can put password related +settings to a separate file, which you include with '!include_try' and +dovecot-lda skips them. + +Parameters +---------- + +Parameters accepted by dovecot-lda: + + * '-d <username>': Destination username. If given, the user information is + looked up from dovecot-auth. Typically used with virtual users, but not + necessarily with system users. + * '-a <address>': Original envelope recipient address (e.g. user+ext@domain), + typically same as SMTP's RCPT TO: value. If not specified, it's taken from + header specified by 'lda_original_recipient_header' setting (v2.0.3+). If + the header doesn't exist either, defaults to same as username. + * '-r <address>': Final envelope recipient address. Defaults to -a address, + but may differ if e.g. aliases are used or when dropping the +ext part. + (v2.0.3+) + * '-f <address>': Envelope sender address. If not specified and message data + begins with a valid mbox-style "From " line, the address is taken from it. + * '-c <path>': Alternative configuration file path. + * '-m <mailbox>': Destination mailbox (default is INBOX). If the mailbox + doesn't exist, it will not be created (unless the lda_mailbox_autocreate + setting is set to yes). If message couldn't be saved to the mailbox for any + reason, it's delivered to INBOX instead. + * If Sieve plugin is used, this mailbox is used as the "keep" action's + mailbox. It's also used if there is no Sieve script or if the script + fails for some reason. + * Deliveries to namespace prefix will result in saving the mail to INBOX + instead. For example if you have "Mail/" namespace, this allows you to + specify 'dovecot-lda -m Mail/$mailbox' where mail is stored to + Mail/$mailbox or to INBOX if $mailbox is empty. + * The mailbox name is specified the same as it's visible in IMAP client. + For example if you've a Maildir with '.box.sub/' directory and your + namespace configuration is 'prefix=INBOX/', 'separator=/', the correct + way to deliver mail there is to use '-m INBOX/box/sub' + * '-e': If mail gets rejected, write the rejection reason to stderr and exit + with EX_NOPERM. The default is to send a rejection mail ourself. + * '-k': Don't clear all environment at startup. + * '-p <path>': Path to the mail to be delivered instead of reading from stdin. + If using maildir the file is hard linked to the destination if possible. + This allows a single mail to be delivered to multiple users using hard + links, but currently it also prevents dovecot-lda from updating cache file + so it shouldn't be used unless really necessary. + * '-o name=value': Override a setting from dovecot.conf. You can give this + parameter multiple times. + +Return values +------------- + +dovecot-lda will exit with one of the following values: + + * 0 (EX_OK): Delivery was successful. + * 64 (EX_USAGE): Invalid parameter given. + * 67 (EX_NOUSER): The destination username was not found. + * 77 (EX_NOPERM): -e parameter was used and mail was rejected. Typically this + happens when user is over quota and 'quota_full_tempfail=no'. + * 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL): A temporary failure. This is returned for almost all + failures. See the log file for details. + +System users +------------ + +You can use LDA with a few selected system users (ie. user is found from +'/etc/passwd' / NSS) by calling dovecot-lda in the user's '~/.forward' file: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +| "/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda" +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This should work with any MTA which supports per-user '.forward' files.

Typically the result will +contain the user's UID, GID and home directory, but depending on your +configuration it may return other information as well. So the information is +similar to what can be found from eg.'/etc/passwd' for system users. This means +that it's probably not a problem to use mode=0666 for the socket, but you +should try to restrict it more just to be safe. + +Without a lookup +---------------- + +If you have already looked up the user's home directory and you don't need a +userdb lookup for any other reason either (such as overriding settings for +specific users), you can run dovecot-lda similar to how it's run for system +users: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +HOME=/path/to/user/homedir dovecot-lda -f $FROM_ENVELOPE +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This way you don't need to have a master listener socket.

It's not +possible to run dovecot-lda as root without '-d' parameter. + +Multiple UIDs +------------- + +If you're using more than one UID for users, you're going to have problems +running dovecot-lda, as most MTAs won't let you run dovecot-lda as root. Best +solution is to use <LMTP.txt> instead, but if you can't do that, there are two +ways to work around this problem: + + 1. Make dovecot-lda setuid-root. + 2.

You should take extra steps to make sure that untrusted users +can't run it and potentially gain root privileges. You can do this by making +sure only your MTA has execution access to it. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# chgrp secmail /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda +# chmod 04750 /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda +# ls -l /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda +-rwsr-x--- 1 root secmail 4023932 2010-06-15 16:23 dovecot-lda +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Then start dovecot-lda as a user that belongs to secmail group. Note that you +have to recreate these rights after each update of dovecot. + +Using sudo: +----------- + +Alternatively, you can use sudo to wrap the invocation of dovecot-lda. This has +the advantage that updates will not clobber the setuid bit, but note that *it +is just as insecure being able to run dovecot-lda via sudo as setuid-root*. +Make sure you only give your MTA the ability to invoke dovecot-lda via sudo. + +First configure sudo to allow 'dovelda' user to invoke dovecot-lda by adding +the following to your '/etc/sudoers': + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Defaults:dovelda !syslog +dovelda ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Then configure your MTA to invoke dovecot-lda as user 'dovelda' and via sudo: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +/usr/bin/sudo /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +instead of just plain '/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda'. + +Problems with dovecot-lda +------------------------- + + * If you are using <prefetch userdb> [UserDatabase.Prefetch.txt], keep in mind + that 'dovecot-lda' does not make a password query and thus will not work if + '-d' parameter is used. The <UserDatabase.Prefetch.txt> page explains how to + fix this. + * See <Checkpassword> [PasswordDatabase.CheckPassword.txt] for how to make + dovecot-lda work with checkpassword. + +Logging +------- + + * Normally Dovecot logs everything through its log process, which is running + as root. dovecot-lda doesn't, which means that you might need some special + configuration for it to log anything at all. + * If dovecot-lda fails to write to log files it exits with temporary failure. + * If you have trouble finding where Dovecot logs by default, see + <Logging.txt>. + * Note that Postfix's 'mailbox_size_limit' setting applies to all files that + are written to. So if you have a limit of 50 MB, dovecot-lda can't write to + log files larger than 50 MB and you'll start getting temporary failures. + +If you want dovecot-lda to keep using Dovecot's the default log files: + + * If you're logging to syslog, make sure the syslog socket (usually + '/dev/log') has enough write permissions for dovecot-lda. For example set it + world-read/writable:'chmod a+rw /dev/log'. + * If you're logging to Dovecot's default log files again you'll need to give + enough write permissions to the log files for dovecot-lda. + +You can also specify different log files for dovecot-lda. This way you don't +have to give any extra write permissions to other log files or the syslog +socket.

You can change the +facility from 'syslog_facility' setting. The syslog configuration is often in +'/etc/syslog.conf' or '/etc/rsyslog*' files.

See <MboxLocking.txt> for more information. + +/var/mail/ dotlocks +------------------- + +Often mbox write locks include dotlock, which means that Dovecot needs to +create a new "<mbox>.lock" file to the directory where the mbox file exists. If +your INBOXes are in '/var/mail/' directory you may have to give Dovecot write +access to the directory. There are two ways the '/var/mail/' directory's +permissions have traditionally been set up: + + * World-writable with sticky bit set, allowing anyone to create new files but + not overwrite or delete existing files owned by someone else (ie. same as + /tmp). You can do this with 'chmod a+rwxt /var/mail' + * Directory owned by a mail group and the directory set to group-writable + (mode=0770, group=mail) + +You can give Dovecot access to mail group by setting: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_privileged_group = mail +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +NOTE: With <LDA.txt> the 'mail_privileged_group' setting unfortunately doesn't +work, so you'll have to use the sticky bit, disable dotlocking completely or +use LMTP server instead. + +/var/mail/* permissions +----------------------- + +In some systems the '/var/mail/$USER' files have 0660 mode permissions. This +causes Dovecot to try to preserve the file's group, and if it doesn't have +permissions to do so, it'll fail with an error: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +imap(user): Error: chown(/home/user/mail/.imap/INBOX, -1, 12(mail)) failed: +Operation not permitted (egid=1000(user), group based on /var/mail/user) +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +There is rarely any real need for the files to have 0660 mode, so the best +solution for this problem is to just change the mode to 0600: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +chmod 0600 /var/mail/* +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Optimizations +------------- + +The settings below are related to mbox performance. See +<MailboxFormat.mbox.txt> for more complete description of what they do. + + * 'mbox_lazy_writes=yes' (default): Metadata updates, such as writing X-UID + headers or flag changes, aren't written to mbox file until the mailbox is + closed or CHECK or EXPUNGE IMAP commands are sent by the client. The mbox + rewrites can be costly, so this may avoid a lot of disk writes. + * 'mbox_dirty_syncs=yes' (default): Dovecot assumes that external mbox file + changes only mean that new messages were appended to it. Without this + setting Dovecot re-reads the whole mbox file whenever it changes. There are + various safeguards in place to make this setting safe even when other + changes than appends were done to the mbox. The only downside to this + setting is that external message flag modifications may not be visible + immediately. + * 'mbox_very_dirty_syncs=yes' (not default): When opening mbox file that has + been changed externally, don't re-read it. Otherwise similar to + 'mbox_dirty_syncs=yes'. + * 'mbox_min_index_size=n': If mbox file is smaller than n kilobytes, don't + update its index files. If an index file exists for it, it's still read + however. + +Only /var/mail/ mboxes +---------------------- + +With POP3 it's been traditional that users have their mails only in the +'/var/mail/' directory. IMAP however supports having multiple mailboxes, so +each user has to have a private directory where the mailboxes are stored. +Dovecot also needs a directory for its index files unless you disable them +completely. + +If you *really* want to use Dovecot as a plain POP3 server without index files, +you can work around the problem of not having the per-user directory: + + * Set users' home directory in userdb to some empty non-writable directory, + for example '/var/empty' + * Modify 'mail_location' setting so that the mail root directory is also the + empty directory and append ':INDEX=MEMORY' to it. For example: + 'mail_location = mbox:/var/empty:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=MEMORY' + * Note that if you have IMAP users, they'll see the '/var/empty' as the + directory containing other mailboxes than INBOX. If the directory is + writable, all the users will have their mailboxes shared. + +Directory layout +---------------- + +By default Dovecot uses filesystem layout under mbox. This means that mail is +stored in mbox files under hierarchical directories, for example: + + * '~/mail/inbox' - mbox file containing mail for INBOX + * '~/mail/foo' - mbox file containing mail for mailbox "foo" + * '~/mail/bar/baz' - mbox file containing mail for mailbox "bar/baz" + +One upshot of this is that it is not normally possible to have mailboxes which +are subfolders of mailboxes containing messages. + +As an alternative, it is possible to configure Dovecot to store all mailboxes +in a single directory with hierarchical levels separated by a dot. This can be +configured by adding ':LAYOUT=maildir++' to the mail location. There are, +however, some further considerations when doing this; see +<MboxChildFolders.txt> for some examples. + +Control files +------------- + +Under mbox format, Dovecot maintains the subscribed mailboxes list in a file +'.subscriptions' which by default is stored in the mail location root. So in +the example configuration this would be at '~/mail/.subscriptions'. + +If you want to put this somewhere else, you can change the directory in which +the '.subscriptions' file is kept by using the 'CONTROL' parameter. So for +example, if we configured the mail location using: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:CONTROL=~/mail-control +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +then the subscribed mailboxes list would be maintained at +'~/mail-control/.subscriptions'. + +One practical application of the 'CONTROL' parameter is described at +<MboxChildFolders.txt>. + +Message file name +----------------- + +By default, Dovecot stores messages for INBOX in an mbox file called "inbox", +and messages for all other mailboxes in an mbox file whose relative path is +equivalent to the name of the mailbox. Under this scheme, it is not possible to +have mailboxes which contain both messages and child mailboxes. + +However, the behaviour (for mailboxes other than INBOX) can be changed using +the 'DIRNAME' parameter. If the 'DIRNAME' parameter is specified with a +particular value, then Dovecot will store messages in a file with a name of +that value, in a directory with a name equivalent to the mailbox name. + +There are, however, some further considerations when doing this; see +<MboxChildFolders.txt> for an example. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/MailLocation.txt b/doc/wiki/MailLocation.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..eb0942b --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/MailLocation.txt @@ -0,0 +1,343 @@ +Mail location +============= + + * For mbox-specific settings, see <MailLocation.mbox.txt> + * For Maildir-specific settings, see <MailLocation.Maildir.txt> + * For dbox-specific settings, see <MailLocation.dbox.txt> + +There are three different places where the mail location is looked up from: + + 1.

If mailbox name can't be changed reversibly to UTF-8 and + back, encode the problematic parts using<broken_char><hex> in the + user-visible UTF-8 name. The broken_char itself also has to be encoded + the same way. This can be useful with imapc to access mailbox names that + aren't valid mUTF-7 charset from remote servers. (v2.2.32+) + * 'CONTROL' : Specifies the location of control files under the <mbox> + [MailLocation.mbox.txt] or <Maildir> [MailLocation.Maildir.txt] formats. + * 'VOLATILEDIR' : Specifies the location of volatile files. This includes + lock files and potentially other files that don't need to exist + permanently. This is especially useful to avoid creating lock files to + NFS or other remote filesystems. (v2.2.32+) + * 'SUBSCRIPTIONS' : specifies the file used for storing subscriptions. The + default is "subscriptions". If you're trying to avoid name collisions + with a mailbox named "subscriptions", then also consider setting + 'MAILBOXDIR'. + * 'MAILBOXDIR' : specifies directory name under which all mailbox + directories are stored. With <dbox formats> [MailboxFormat.dbox.txt] the + default is "mailboxes/" while with other mailbox formats the default is + empty.

Even if relative paths would appear to work, they +might just as well break some day. + +Directory hashing +----------------- + +You can use two different kinds of hashes in <variables> [Variables.txt]: + + * %H modifiers returns a 32bit hash of the given string as hex. For example + '%2.256H' would return max. 256 different hashes in range 00 .. ff. + * %M returns a MD5 hash of the string as hex. This can be used for two level + hashing by getting substrings of the MD5 hash. For example '%1Mu/%2.1Mu/%u' + returns directories from '0/0/user' to 'f/f/user'. + +Index files +----------- + +Index files are by default stored under the same directory as mails. With +maildir they are stored in the actual maildirs, with mbox they are stored under +'.imap/' directory. You may want to change the index file location if you're +using <NFS.txt> or if you're setting up <shared mailboxes> +[SharedMailboxes.txt]. + +You can change the index file location by adding ':INDEX=<path>' to +mail_location. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INDEX=/var/indexes/%u +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The index directories are created automatically, but note that it requires that +Dovecot has actually access to create the directories. Either make sure that +the index root directory ('/var/indexes' in the above example) is writable to +the logged in user, or create the user's directory with proper permissions +before the user logs in. + +If you really want to, you can also disable the index files completely by +appending ':INDEX=MEMORY'. + +Private index files (v2.2+) +--------------------------- + +Since v2.2 the recommended way to enable private flags for shared mailboxes is +to create private indexes with :INDEXPVT=<path>. See +<SharedMailboxes.Public.txt> for more information. + +INBOX path +---------- + +INBOX path can be specified to exist elsewhere than the rest of the mailboxes, +for example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u +mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir:INBOX=~/Maildir/.INBOX +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Note that it's still not possible to mix maildir and mbox formats this way.

Each email message is stored in +a single file, with directories indicating folders and subfolders. The index +or order of the messages in the folder determine what each message is named +(which may not correspond to the inode index). The "safe" way to guarantee a +message gets written to a mail folder is to first write the message out to a +randomly chosen temporary file name, then link the file to the number LAST+1, +where LAST is the last sequential message in the folder. If the link fails, +increment the counter and try again. + +MH folders also maintains a meta-file called '~/Mail/.mh_context' that contains +information about the most current folder and message chosen. Each sub-folder +also contains a meta-file called '.mh_sequences' or '.xmhcache', which +maintains keyword association lists for stored queries. New messages are +stored in the "unseen" sequence for a folder. Procmail itself does not bother +making changes to this file, rather simply delivers the message to the folder +and leaves determining new messages as an exercise for the MUA. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +unseen: 1-3 8 15 +projectB: 2-8 10 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +shows two stored sequences of messages. Command-line utilities can then use +these sequences as shortcuts.'show unseen', for example, is short-hand for +'show 1-3 8 15'. + +Deleted emails are indicated by prepending a "," to the name. One of the +largest problems that IMAP servers have with MH format is the volatility of the +email message name itself. The command-line utility 'sortm' is used to sort +mail folders by date or string matching. To do this, messages are actually +renamed to reflect the new sort order. IMAP servers are required to maintain +an index of the folder contents, so when the names of the file entries cannot +be guaranteed to be stable, IMAP servers have to throw out previous index +caches and re-index. + +When operating with a shell account on a machine that also provides IMAP access +to folders, users are encouraged not to re-sort email locally while accessing +the IMAP server remotely. + +Links + + * NMH [http://www.nongnu.org/nmh/]: New MH Client + * Original RAND MH [http://rand-mh.sourceforge.net] Code + * MH-Book [http://rand-mh.sourceforge.net/book/] + * Mutt Manual [http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/manual-4.html#ss4.6]: Describing + how it handles MH folders + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.Maildir.txt b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.Maildir.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..5629b7d --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.Maildir.txt @@ -0,0 +1,400 @@ +Maildir +======= + +This format debuted with the qmail server in the mid-1990s. Each mailbox folder +is a directory and each message a file. This improves efficiency because +individual emails can be modified, deleted and added without affecting the +mailbox or other emails, and makes it safer to use on networked file systems +such as NFS. + +Dovecot extensions +------------------ + +Since the standard maildir specification [https://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html] +doesn't provide everything needed to fully support the IMAP protocol, Dovecot +had to create some of its own non-standard extensions. The extensions still +keep the maildir standards compliant, so MUAs not supporting the extensions can +still safely use it as a normal maildir. + +IMAP UID mapping +---------------- + +IMAP requires each message to have a permanent unique ID number. Dovecot uses +'dovecot-uidlist' file to keep UID <-> filename mapping. The file is basically +in the same format as Courier IMAP's courierimapuiddb file, except for one +difference (see below). + +The file begins with a header: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +3 V1275660208 N25022 G3085f01b7f11094c501100008c4a11c1 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + * 3 is the file format version number used by Dovecot v1.1+ + * 1275660208 is the IMAP UIDVALIDITY + * 25022 is the UID that will be given to the next added message + * 3085f01b7f11094c501100008c4a11c1 is the 128 bit mailbox global UID in hex + * There may be other fields, and the order of these fields isn't important + +Version 1 file format is compatible with Courier.

This filename doesn't + necessarily exist currently, because filename changes every time message's + flags change. Dovecot doesn't waste disk I/O by rewriting uidlist file every + time flags change, but whenever it is rewritten the latest filenames are + used. This allows Dovecot to try to guess what the message's current + filename is and if successful, avoid having to scan the directory's + contents. + +The dovecot-uidlist file doesn't need to be locked for reading. When writing +dovecot-uidlist.lock file needs to be created. New lines can be appended to the +end of file, but existing data must never be directly modified, it can only be +replaced with rename() call. + +dovecot-uidlist is updated lazily to optimize for disk I/O. If a message is +expunged, it may not be removed from dovecot-uidlist until sometimes later. +This means that if you create a new file using the same file name as what +already exists in dovecot-uidlist, Dovecot thinks you "unexpunged" message by +restoring a message from backup. This causes a warning to be logged and the +file to be renamed. + +Note that messages must not be modified once they've been delivered. IMAP (and +Dovecot) requires that messages are immutable. If you wish to modify them in +any way, create a new message instead and expunge the old one. + +IMAP keywords +------------- + +All the non-standard message flags are called keywords in IMAP. Some clients +use these automatically for marking spam (eg. $Junk, $NonJunk, $Spam, $NonSpam +keywords). Thunderbird uses labels which map to keywords $Label1, $Label2, etc. + +Dovecot stores keywords in the maildir filename's flags field using letters +a..z. This means that only 26 keywords are possible to store in the maildir. If +more are used, they're still stored in Dovecot's index files. The mapping from +single letters to keyword names is stored in dovecot-keywords file. The file is +in format: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +0 $Junk +1 $NonJunk +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +0 means letter 'a' in the maildir filename, 1 means 'b' and so on. The file +doesn't need to be locked for reading, but when writing dovecot-uidlist file +must be locked. The file must not be directly modified, it can only be replaced +with rename() call. + +For example, a file named + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +1234567890.M20046P2137.mailserver,S=4542,W=4642:2,Sb +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +would be flagged as '$NonJunk' with the above keywords. + +Maildir filename extensions +--------------------------- + +The standard filename definition is: "<base filename>:2,<flags>". Dovecot has +extended the<flags> field to be "<flags>[,<non-standard fields>]". This means +that if Dovecot sees a comma in the<flags> field while updating flags in the +filename, it doesn't touch anything after the comma. However other maildir MUAs +may mess them up, so it's still not such a good idea to do that. Basic<flags> +are described here [https://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html]. The <non-standard +fields> isn't used by Dovecot for anything currently. + +Dovecot supports reading a few fields from the <base filename>: + + * ',S=<size>': <size> contains the file size.

This means that all the folders are +directly inside '~/Maildir' directory: + + * '~/Maildir/new', '~/Maildir/cur' and '~/Maildir/tmp' directories contain the + messages for INBOX. The 'tmp' directory is used during delivery, new + messages arrive in 'new' and read shall be moved to 'cur' by the clients. + * '~/Maildir/.folder/' is a mailbox folder + * '~/Maildir/.folder.subfolder/' is a subfolder of a folder (ie. + "folder/subfolder") + +You can also optionally use the "fs" layout by appending ':LAYOUT=fs' to +<mail_location> [MailLocation.txt].

This is +required because otherwise Dovecot might temporarily see mails incorrectly +deleted, which would cause trouble. Basically the problem is that if one +process modifies the maildir (eg. a rename() to change a message's flag), +another process in the middle of listing files at the same time could skip a +file. The skipping happens because readdir() system call doesn't guarantee that +all the files are returned if the directory is modified between the calls to +it. This problem exists with all the commonly used filesystems. + +Because Dovecot uses its own non-standard locking ('dovecot-uidlist.lock' +dotlock file), other MUAs accessing the maildir don't support it. This means +that if another MUA is updating messages' flags or expunging messages, Dovecot +might temporarily lose some message. After the next sync when it finds it +again, an error message may be written to log and the message will receive a +new UID. + +Delivering mails to new/ directory doesn't have any problems, so there's no +need for LDAs to support any type of locking. + +Mail delivery +------------- + +Qmail's how a message is delivered page +[https://www.qmail.org/man/man5/maildir.html] suggests to deliver the mail like +this: + + 1. Create a unique filename (only "time.pid.host" here, later Maildir spec has + been updated to allow more uniqueness identifiers) + 2. Do 'stat(tmp/<filename>)'. If the 'stat()' found a file, wait 2 seconds and + go back to step 1. + 3. Create and write the message to the 'tmp/<filename>'. + 4. link() it into new/ directory. Although not mentioned here, the link() + could again fail if the mail existed in new/ dir. In that case you should + probably go back to step 1. + +All this trouble is rather pointless. Only the first step is what really +guarantees that the mails won't get overwritten, the rest just sounds nice. +Even though they might catch a problem once in a while, they give no guaranteed +protection and will just as easily pass duplicate filenames through and +overwrite existing mails. + +Step 2 is pointless because there's a race condition between steps 2 and 3. +PID/host combination by itself should already guarantee that it never finds +such a file. If it does, something's broken and the stat() check won't help +since another process might be doing the same thing at the same time, and you +end up writing to the same file in tmp/, causing the mail to get corrupted. + +In step 4 the link() would fail if an identical file already existed in the +maildir, right? Wrong. The file may already have been moved to cur/ directory, +and since it may contain any number of flags by then you can't check with a +simple stat() anymore if it exists or not. + +Step 2 was pointed out to be useful if clock had moved backwards. However again +this doesn't give any actual safety guarantees, because an identical base +filename could already exist in cur/. Besides if the system was just rebooted, +the file in tmp/ could probably be even overwritten safely (assuming it wasn't +already link()ed to new/). + +So really, all that's important in not getting mails overwritten in your +maildir is the step 1: Always create filenames that are guaranteed to be +unique. Forget about the 2 second waits and such that the Qmail's man page +talks about. + +Maildir and mail header metadata +-------------------------------- + +Unlike when using <mbox> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt] as <mailbox format> +[MailboxFormat.txt], where mail headers (for example 'Status', 'X-UID', etc.) +are <used to determine and store meta-data> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt], the mail +headers within maildir files are (usually)*not* used for this purpose by +dovecot; neither when mails are created/moved/etc. via IMAP nor when maildirs +are placed (e.g. copied or moved in the filesystem) in a mail location (and +then "imported" by dovecot).Therefore, it is (usually) *not* necessary, to +strip any such mail headers at the MTA, MDA or LDA (as it is recommended with +<mbox> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt]). + +There is one exception, though, namely when 'pop3_reuse_xuidl=yes' (which is +however rather deprecated):In this case 'X-UIDL' is used for the POP3 UIDLs. +Therefore,*in this case, is recommended to strip the 'X-UIDL' mail headers +_case-insensitively_ at the MTA, MDA or LDA*. + +Procmail Problems +----------------- + +Maildir format is somewhat compatible with MH format. This is sometimes a +problem when people configure their procmail to deliver mails to 'Maildir/new'. +This makes procmail create the messages in MH format, which basically means +that the file is called 'msg.inode_number'. While this appears to work first, +after expunging messages from the maildir the inodes are freed and will be +reused later. This means that another file with the same name may come to the +maildir, which makes Dovecot think that an expunged file reappeared into the +mailbox and an error is logged. + +The proper way to configure procmail to deliver to a Maildir is to use +'Maildir/' as the destination. + +References +---------- + + * Official Maildir format page [https://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html] + * Qmail's how to deliver to Maildir man page + [https://www.qmail.org/man/man5/maildir.html] + * Maildir++ [https://www.courier-mta.org/imap/README.maildirquota.html] + * Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maildir] + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.dbox.txt b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.dbox.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8df69bf --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.dbox.txt @@ -0,0 +1,251 @@ +dbox +==== + +dbox is Dovecot's own high-performance mailbox format. The original version was +introduced in v1.0 alpha4, but since then it has been completely redesigned in +v1.1 series and improved even further in v2.0. + +dbox can be used in two ways: + + 1. *single-dbox* ('sdbox' in <mail location> [MailLocation.txt]): One message + per file, similar to <Maildir> [MailboxFormat.Maildir.txt]. For backwards + compatibility,'dbox' is an alias to 'sdbox' in <mail_location> + [MailLocation.txt]. + 2. *multi-dbox* ('mdbox' in <mail location> [MailLocation.txt]): Multiple + messages per file, but unlike <mbox> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt] multiple + files per mailbox. + +One of the main reasons for dbox's high performance is that it uses Dovecot's +index files as the only storage for message flags and keywords, so the indexes +don't have to be "synchronized". Dovecot trusts that they're always up-to-date +(unless it sees that something is clearly broken). This also means that *you +must not lose the dbox index files, they can't be regenerated without data +loss*. + +dbox has a feature for transparently moving message data to an alternate +storage area. See <Alternate storage> [MailboxFormat.dbox.txt] below. + +dbox storage is extensible. Single instance attachment storage was already +implemented as such extension. + +Layout +------ + +By default, the dbox filesystem layout will be as follows. Data which isn't the +actual message content is stored in a layout common to both *single-dbox* and +*multi-dbox*: + + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index + files for INBOX + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/foo/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index files + for mailbox "foo" + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/foo/bar/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index + files for mailbox "foo/bar" + * <mail location root>'/dovecot.mailbox.log*' - Mailbox changelog + * <mail location root>'/subscriptions' - subscribed mailboxes list + * <mail location root>'/dovecot-uidvalidity*' - IMAP UID validity + +Note that with dbox the Index files actually contain significant data which is +held nowhere else. Index files for both *single-dbox* and *multi-dbox* contain +message flags and keywords. For *multi-dbox*, the index file also contains the +map_uids which link (via the "map index") to the actual message data. This data +cannot be automatically recreated, so it is important that Index files are +treated with the same care as message data files. + +Index files can be stored in a different location by using the INDEX parameter +in the mail location specification. If the INDEX parameter is specified, it +will make Dovecot look for the Index files as follows: + + * <INDEX location>'/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index files + for INBOX + * <INDEX location>'/mailboxes/foo/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index files for + mailbox "foo" + * <INDEX location>'/mailboxes/foo/bar/dbox-Mails/dovecot.index*' - Index files + for mailbox "foo/bar" + +Actual message content is stored differently depending on whether it is +*single-dbox* or *multi-dbox*. + +Under *single-dbox* we have: + + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/INBOX/dbox-Mails/u.*' - Numbered files + ('u.1','u.2', ...) each containing one message of INBOX + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/foo/dbox-Mails/u.*' - Files each containing + one message for mailbox "foo" + * <mail location root>'/mailboxes/foo/bar/dbox-Mails/u.*' - Files each + containing one message for for mailbox "foo/bar" + +Under *multi-dbox* we have: + + * <mail location root>'/storage/dovecot.map.index*' - "Map index" containing a + record for each message stored + * <mail location root>'/storage/m.*' - Numbered files ('m.1', 'm.2', ...) each + containing one or multiple messages + +With Dovecot versions 2.0.4 and later, setting the INDEX parameter sets the +location of the "map index" as well as the location of the mailbox indexes. So +this would make the "map index" be stored as follows: + + * <INDEX location>'/storage/dovecot.map.index*' - "Map index" containing a + record for each message stored + +Multi-dbox +---------- + +You can enable multi-dbox with: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mdbox:~/mdbox +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The directory layout (under '~/mdbox/') is: + + * '~/mdbox/storage/' contains the actual mail data for all mailboxes + * '~/mdbox/mailboxes/' contains directories for mailboxes and their index + files + +The storage directory has files: + + * 'dovecot.map.index*' files contain the "map index" + * 'm.*' files contain the mail data + +Each m.* file contains one or more messages. 'mdbox_rotate_size' setting can be +used to configure how large the files can grow. + +The map index contains a record for each message: + + * map_uid: Unique growing 32 bit number for the message. + * refcount: 16 bit reference counter for this message. Each time the message + is copied the refcount is increased. + * file_id: File number containing the message. For example if file_id=5, the + message is in file 'm.5'. + * offset: Offset to message within the file. + * size: Space used by the message in the file, including all metadata. + +Mailbox indexes refer to messages only using map_uids. This allows messages to +be moved to different files by updating only the map index. Copying is done +simply by appending a new record to mailbox index containing the existing +map_uid and increasing its refcount. If refcount grows over 32768, currently +Dovecot gives an error message. It's unlikely anyone really wants to copy the +same message that many times. + +Expunging a message only decreases the message's refcount. The space is later +freed in "purge" step. This is typically done in a nightly cronjob when there's +less disk I/O activity. The purging first finds all files that have refcount=0 +mails. Then it goes through each file and copies the refcount>0 mails to other +mdbox files (to the same files as where newly saved messages would also go), +updates the map index and finally deletes the original file. So there is never +any overwriting or file truncation. + +The purging can be invoked explicitly running <doveadm purge> +[Tools.Doveadm.Purge.txt]. + +There are several safety features built into dbox to avoid losing messages or +their state if map index or mailbox index gets corrupted: + + * Each message has a 128 bit globally unique identifier (GUID). The GUID is + saved to message metadata in m.* files and also to mailbox indexes. This + allows Dovecot to find messages even if map index gets corrupted. + * Whenever index file is rewritten, the old index is renamed to + 'dovecot.index.backup'. If the main index becomes corrupted, this backup + index is used to restore flags and figure out what messages belong to the + mailbox. + * Initial mailbox where message was saved to is stored in the message metadata + in m.* files. So if all indexes get lost, the messages are put to their + initial mailboxes. This is better than placing everything into a single + mailbox. + +Alternate storage +----------------- + +Unlike Maildir, with dbox the message file names don't change. This makes it +possible to support storing files in multiple directories or mount points. dbox +supports looking up files from "altpath" if they're not found from the primary +path. This means that it's possible to move older mails that are rarely +accessed to cheaper (slower) storage. + +To enable this functionality, use the 'ALT' parameter in the mail location. For +example, specifying the mail location as: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mdbox:/var/vmail/%d/%n:ALT=/altstorage/vmail/%d/%n +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +will make Dovecot look for message data first under '/var/vmail/%d/%n' +("primary storage"), and if it is not found there it will look under +'/altstorage/vmail/%d/%n' ("alternate storage") instead. There's no problem +having the same (identical) file in both storages. + +Keep the unmounted '/altstorage' directory permissions such that Dovecot mail +processes can't create directories under it (e.g. root:root 0755). This way if +the alt storage isn't mounted for some reason, Dovecot won't think that all the +messages in alt storage were deleted and lose their flags. + +When messages are moved from primary storage to alternate storage, only the +actual message data (stored in files 'u.*' under *single-dbox* and 'm.*' under +*multi-dbox*) is moved to alternate storage; everything else remains in the +primary storage. + +Message data can be moved from primary storage to alternate storage using +<doveadm altmove> [Tools.Doveadm.Altmove.txt]. (In theory you could also do +this with some combination of cp/mv, but better not to go there unless you +really need to. The updates must be atomic in any case, so direct cp won't +work.) + +The granularity at which data is moved to alternate storage is individual +messages. This is true even for *multi-dbox* when multiple messages are stored +in a single 'm.*' storage file. If individual messages from an 'm.*' storage +file need to be moved to alternate storage, the message data is written out to +a different 'm.*' storage file (either new or existing) in the alternate +storage area and the "map index" updated accordingly. + +Alternate storage is completely transparent at the IMAP/POP level. Users +accessing mail through IMAP or POP cannot normally tell if any given message is +stored in primary storage or alternate storage. Conceivably users might be able +to measure a performance difference; the point is that there is no IMAP/POP +command which could be used to expose this information. It is entirely possible +to have a mail folder which contains a mix of messages stored in primary +storage and alternate storage. + +dbox and mail header metadata +----------------------------- + +Unlike when using <mbox> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt] as <mailbox format> +[MailboxFormat.txt], where mail headers (for example 'Status', 'X-UID', etc.) +are <used to determine and store meta-data> [MailboxFormat.mbox.txt], the mail +headers within dbox files are (usually)*not* used for this purpose by dovecot; +neither when mails are created/moved/etc. via IMAP nor when dboxes are placed +(e.g. copied or moved in the filesystem) in a mail location (and then +"imported" by dovecot).Therefore, it is (usually) *not* necessary, to strip any +such mail headers at the MTA, MDA or LDA (as it is recommended with <mbox> +[MailboxFormat.mbox.txt]). + +There is one exception, though, namely when 'pop3_reuse_xuidl=yes' (which is +however rather deprecated):In this case 'X-UIDL' is used for the POP3 UIDLs. +Therefore,*in this case, is recommended to strip the 'X-UIDL' mail headers +_case-insensitively_ at the MTA, MDA or LDA*. + +Accessing expunged mails with mdbox +----------------------------------- + +"mdbox_deleted" storage can be used to access mdbox's all mails that are +completely deleted (reference count=0). The mdbox_deleted parameters should +otherwise be exactly the same as mdbox's. Then you can use e.g. doveadm fetch +or doveadm import commands to access the mails. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# If you have mail_location=mdbox:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/index/%u +doveadm import mdbox_deleted:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/index/%u "" subject oops +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This finds a deleted mail with subject "oops" and imports it into INBOX. + +Mail delivery +============= + +Some MTA configurations have the MTA directly dropping mail into Maildirs or +mboxes.

Mbox Variants + + 7. References + +Usually UNIX systems are configured by default to deliver mails to +'/var/mail/username' or '/var/spool/mail/username' mboxes. In IMAP world these +files are called INBOX mailboxes. IMAP protocol supports multiple mailboxes +however, so there needs to be a place for them as well. Typically they're +stored in '~/mail/' or '~/Mail/' directories. + +The mbox file contains all the messages of a single mailbox. Because of this, +the mbox format is typically thought of as a slow format. However with +Dovecot's indexing this isn't true. Only expunging messages from the beginning +of a large mbox file is slow with Dovecot, most other operations should be +fast. Also because all the mails are in a single file, searching is much faster +than with maildir. + +Modifications to mbox may require moving data around within the file, so +interruptions (eg. power failures) can cause the mbox to break more or less +badly. Although Dovecot tries to minimize the damage by moving the data in a +way that data should never get lost (only duplicated), mboxes still aren't +recommended to be used for important data. + +Locking +------- + +Locking is a mess with mboxes. There are multiple different ways to lock a +mbox, and software often uses incompatible locking. See <MboxLocking.txt> for +how to check what locking methods some commonly used programs use. + +There are at least four different ways to lock a mbox: + + * *dotlock*: 'mailboxname.lock' file created by almost all software when + writing to mboxes. This grants the writer an exclusive lock over the mbox, + so it's usually not used while reading the mbox so that other processes can + also read it at the same time. So while using a dotlock typically prevents + actual mailbox corruption, it doesn't protect against read errors if mailbox + is modified while a process is reading. + * *flock*: 'flock()' system call is quite commonly used for both read and + write locking. The read lock allows multiple processes to obtain a read lock + for the mbox, so it works well for reading as well. The one downside to it + is that it doesn't work if mailboxes are stored in NFS. + * *fcntl*: Very similar to *flock*, also commonly used by software. In some + systems this 'fcntl()' system call is compatible with 'flock()', but in + other systems it's not, so you shouldn't rely on it.*fcntl* works with NFS + if you're using lockd daemon in both NFS server and client. + * *lockf*: POSIX 'lockf()' locking. Because it allows creating only exclusive + locks, it's somewhat useless so Dovecot doesn't support it. With Linux + 'lockf()' is internally compatible with 'fcntl()' locks, but again you + shouldn't rely on this. + +Dotlock +------- + +Another problem with dotlocks is that if the mailboxes exist in '/var/mail/', +the user may not have write access to the directory, so the dotlock file can't +be created. There are a couple of ways to work around this: + + * Give a mail group write access to the directory and then make sure that all + software requiring access to the directory runs with the group's privileges. + This may mean making the binary itself setgid-mail, or using a separate + dotlock helper program which is setgid-mail. With Dovecot this can be done + by setting 'mail_privileged_group = mail'. + * Set sticky bit to the directory ('chmod +t /var/mail'). This makes it + somewhat safe to use, because users can't delete each others mailboxes, but + they can still create new files (the dotlock files). The downside to this is + that users can create whatever files they wish in there, such as a mbox for + newly created user who hadn't yet received mail. + +Deadlocks +--------- + +If multiple lock methods are used, which is usually the case since dotlocks +aren't typically used for read locking, the order in which the locking is done +is important. Consider if two programs were running at the same time, both use +dotlock and fcntl locking but in different order: + + * Program A: fcntl locks the mbox + * Program B at the same time: dotlocks the mbox + * Program A continues: tries to dotlock the mbox, but since it's already + dotlocked by B, it starts waiting + * Program B continues: tries to fcntl lock the mbox, but since it's already + fcntl locked by A, it starts waiting + +Now both of them are waiting for each others locks. Finally after a couple of +minutes they time out and fail the operation. + +Directory Structure +------------------- + +By default, when listing mailboxes, Dovecot simply assumes that all files it +sees are mboxes and all directories mean that they contain sub-mailboxes. There +are two special cases however which aren't listed: + + * '.subscriptions' file contains IMAP's mailbox subscriptions. + * '.imap/' directory contains Dovecot's index files. + +Because it's not possible to have a file which is also a directory, it's not +normally possible to create a mailbox and child mailboxes under it. + +However if you really want to be able to have mailboxes containing both +messages and child mailboxes under mbox, then Dovecot can be configured to do +this, subject to certain provisos; see <MboxChildFolders.txt>. + +Dovecot's Metadata +------------------ + +Dovecot uses C-Client (ie. UW-IMAP, Pine) compatible headers in mbox messages +to store metadata. These headers are: + + * X-IMAPbase: Contains UIDVALIDITY, last used UID and list of used keywords + * X-IMAP: Same as X-IMAPbase but also specifies that the message is a "pseudo + message" + * X-UID: Message's allocated UID + * Status: R (\Seen) and O (non-\Recent) flags + * X-Status: A (\Answered), F (\Flagged), T (\Draft) and D (\Deleted) flags + * X-Keywords: Message's keywords + * Content-Length: Length of the message body in bytes + +Whenever any of these headers exist, Dovecot treats them as its own private +metadata. It does sanity checks for them, so the headers may also be modified +or removed completely. None of these headers are sent to IMAP/POP3 clients when +they read the mail. + +*The MTA, MDA or LDA should strip all these headers _case-insensitively_ before +writing the mail to the mbox.* + +Only the first message contains the X-IMAP or X-IMAPbase header. The difference +is that when all the messages are deleted from mbox file, a "pseudo message" is +written to the mbox which contains X-IMAP header. This is the "DON'T DELETE +THIS MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA" message which you hate seeing when using +non-C-client and non-Dovecot software. This is however important to prevent +abuse, otherwise the first mail which is received could contain faked +X-IMAPbase header which could cause trouble. + +If message contains X-Keywords header, it contains a space-separated list of +keywords for the mail. Since the same header can come from the mail's sender, +only the keywords are listed in X-IMAP header are used. + +The UID for a new message is calculated from "last used UID" in X-IMAP header + +1. This is done always, so fake X-UID headers don't really matter. This is also +why the pseudo message is important. Otherwise the UIDs could easily grow over +2^31 which some clients start treating as negative numbers, which then cause +all kinds of problems. Also when 2^32 is exceeded, Dovecot will also start +having some problems. + +Content-Length is used as long as another valid mail starts after that many +bytes. Because the byte count must be exact, it's quite unlikely that abusing +it can cause messages to be skipped (or rather appended to the previous +message's body). + +Status and X-Status headers are trusted completely, so it's pretty good idea to +filter them in LDA if possible. + +Dovecot's Speed Optimizations +----------------------------- + +Updating messages' flags and keywords can be a slow operation since you may +have to insert a new header (Status, X-Status, X-Keywords) or at least insert +data in the header's value. Some mbox MUAs do this simply by rewriting all of +the mbox after the inserted data. If the mbox is large, this can be very slow. +Dovecot optimizes this by always leaving some space characters after some of +its internal headers. It can use this space to move only minimal amount of data +necessary to get the necessary data inserted. Also if data is removed, it just +grows these spaces areas. + +'mbox_lazy_writes' setting works by adding and/or updating Dovecot's metadata +headers only after closing the mailbox or when messages are expunged from the +mailbox. C-Client works the same way. The upside of this is that it reduces +writes because multiple flag updates to same message can be grouped, and +sometimes the writes don't have to be done at all if the whole message is +expunged. The downside is that other processes don't notice the changes +immediately (but other Dovecot processes do notice because the changes are in +index files). + +'mbox_dirty_syncs' setting tries to avoid re-reading the mbox every time +something changes. Whenever the mbox changes (ie. timestamp or size), it first +checks if the mailbox's size changed. If it didn't, it most likely meant that +only message flags were changed so it does a full mbox read to find it. If the +mailbox shrunk, it means that mails were expunged and again Dovecot does a full +sync. Usually however the only thing besides Dovecot that modifies the mbox is +the LDA which appends new mails to the mbox. So if the mbox size was grown, +Dovecot first checks if the last known message is still where it was last time. +If it is, Dovecot reads only the newly added messages and goes into a "dirty +mode". As long as Dovecot is in dirty mode, it can't be certain that mails are +where it expects them to be, so whenever accessing some mail, it first verifies +that it really is the correct mail by finding its X-UID header. If the X-UID +header is different, it fallbacks to a full sync to find the mail's correct +position. The dirty mode goes away after a full sync. If 'mbox_lazy_writes' was +enabled and the mail didn't yet have X-UID header, Dovecot uses MD5 sum of a +couple of headers to compare the mails. + +'mbox_very_dirty_syncs' does the same as 'mbox_dirty_syncs', but the dirty +state is kept also when opening the mailbox. Normally opening the mailbox does +a full sync if it had been changed outside Dovecot. + +From Escaping +------------- + +In mboxes a new mail always begins with a "From " line, commonly referred to as +From_-line. To avoid confusion, lines beginning with "From " in message bodies +are usually prefixed with '>' character while the message is being written to +in mbox. + +Dovecot doesn't currently do this escaping however. Instead it prevents this +confusion by adding Content-Length headers so it knows later where the next +message begins. Dovecot doesn't either remove the '>' characters before sending +the data to clients. Both of these will probably be implemented later. + +Mbox Variants +------------- + +There are a few minor variants of this format: + +*mboxo* is the name of original mbox format originated with Unix System V. +Messages are stored in a single file, with each message beginning with a line +containing "From SENDER DATE". If "From " (case-sensitive, with the space) +occurs at the beginning of a line anywhere in the email, it is escaped with a +greater-than sign (to ">From "). Lines already quoted as such, for example +">From " or ">>>From " are *not* quoted again, which leads to irrecoverable +corruption of the message content. + +*mboxrd* was named for Raul Dhesi in June 1995, though several people came up +with the same idea around the same time. An issue with the mboxo format was +that if the text ">From " appeared in the body of an email (such as from a +reply quote), it was not possible to distinguish this from the mailbox format's +quoted ">From ". mboxrd fixes this by always quoting already quoted "From " +lines (e.g. ">From ", ">>From ", ">>>From ", etc.) as well, so readers can just +remove the first ">" character. This format is used by qmail and getmail +(>=4.35.0). + +*mboxcl* format was originated with Unix System V Release 4 mail tools. It adds +a Content-Length field which indicates the number of bytes in the message. This +is used to determine message boundaries. It still quotes "From " as the +original mboxo format does (and *not* as mboxrd does it). + +*mboxcl2* is like mboxcl but does away with the "From " quoting. + +*MMDF* (Multi-channel Memorandum Distribution Facility mailbox format) was +originated with the MMDF daemon. The format surrounds each message with lines +containing four control-A's. This eliminates the need to escape From: lines. + +Dovecot currently uses mboxcl2 format internally, but it's planned to move to +combination of mboxrd and mboxcl. + +*How a message is read stored in mbox extension ?* + + * An email client reader scans throughout mbox file looking for From_ lines. + * Any From_ line marks the beginning of a message. + * Once the reader finds a message, it extracts a (possibly corrupted) envelope + sender and delivery date out of the From_ line. + * It then reads until the next From_ line or scans till the end of file, + whenever From_ comes first. + * It removes the last blank line and deletes the quoting of >From_ lines and + >>From_ lines and so on. + +References +---------- + + * Wikipedia [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mbox] + * Qmail mbox [http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/mbox.html] + * Mbox family + [http://homepage.ntlworld.com/jonathan.deboynepollard/FGA/mail-mbox-formats.html] + * CommuniGatePro mbox + [http://www.communigate.com/CommuniGatePro/Mailboxes.html#mbox] + * MBOX File Viewer [http://www.freeviewer.org/mbox/] + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.mbx.txt b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.mbx.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..c5d76a2 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/MailboxFormat.mbx.txt @@ -0,0 +1,24 @@ +mbx +=== + +A high performance mbox-replacement created by Mark Crispin while at University +of Washington for UW-IMAP.

+1,187 @@ +Mail folders containing both messages and sub-folders +----------------------------------------------------- + +Under mbox, it is not normally possible to have a mail folder which contains +both messages and sub-folders. This is because there would be a filesystem name +collision between the name of the mbox file containing the messages and the +name of the directory containing the sub-folders, for example: + + * Mail folder "foo" containing messages would be stored in a file at + '~/mail/foo'. + * Mail folder "foo/bar" containing messages would be stored in a file at + '~/mail/foo/bar', but this cannot happen because this relies on the + existence of a directory '~/mail/foo/' which can't exist because there is + already a file with that name. + +If however there is a requirement to be able to have a mail folder which +contains both messages and sub-folders, then there are a couple of ways to do +it: + + 1. Maildir++ layout + 2. Messages in named file + +These approaches are described in more detail below. + +Maildir++ layout +---------------- + +Under mbox, Dovecot normally stores mail folders in "filesystem" layout. In +this layout, mail folders are stored in mbox files (potentially under +subdirectories) with the same relative path as the mail folder path, for +example: + + * '~/mail/foo' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "foo"; can not + create any mail sub-folders of "foo" + * '~/mail/bar/baz' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "bar/baz"; can + not create any mail sub-folders of "bar/baz" + * ('~/mail/inbox' - mbox file containing mail for INBOX) + +However, Dovecot can be configured to keep mbox mail in a Maildir++-like +layout. This makes Dovecot keep mail in mbox files where all the mailbox folder +naming levels are separated with dots (with a leading dot), for example: + + * '~/mail/.foo' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "foo" + * '~/mail/.foo.bar' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "foo/bar". We + can now do this. + * '~/mail/.bar.baz' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "bar/baz" + * ('~/mail/inbox' - mbox file containing mail for INBOX) + +This can be enabled by adding ':LAYOUT=maildir++' to the mail location, for +example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# Incomplete example. Do not use! +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++ +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +However there is a problem. Under mbox, setting 'LAYOUT=maildir++' alone leaves +Dovecot unable to place index files, which would likely result in performance +issues. So when using 'LAYOUT=maildir++' with mbox, it is advisable to also +configure 'INDEX'. Now, mail files (other than 'inbox') all have names +beginning with a dot, so if we like we can store other things in the '~/mail' +directory by using names which do not begin with a dot. So we could think to +use 'INDEX' to indexes at '~/mail/index/', for example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# Incomplete example. Do not use! +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/mail/index +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If we do this, then indexes will be kept at '~/mail/index/' and this will not +clash with any names used for mail folders. There is one more thing we may want +to consider though. By default Dovecot will maintain a list of subscribed +folders in a file '.subscriptions' under the mail location root. In this case +that means it would end up at '~/mail/.subscriptions'. This would then mean +that it would be impossible to create a mail folder called "subscriptions". We +can get around this by using the 'CONTROL' parameter to move the +'.subscriptions' file somewhere else, for example into the directory +'~/mail/control' (again choosing a name which doesn't begin with a dot so we +don't collide with the names of mbox files storing mail folders). That gives +us: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# Trick mbox configuration which allows a mail folder which contains both +# messages and sub-folders +mail_location = +mbox:~/mail:LAYOUT=maildir++:INDEX=~/mail/index:CONTROL=~/mail/control +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This then allows mail folders which contains both messages and sub-folders +without possibility of naming collisions between mail folders and other data. + +There is one further wrinkle. Specifying ':LAYOUT=maildir++' for mbox changes +the default hierarchy separator from a slash to a dot. This should not be a +problem for IMAP clients as the hierarchy separator is exposed through IMAP. +However anything which expects to just "know" that the hierarchy separator is a +slash may get confused. This can be worked around by using a <namespace> +[Namespaces.txt] to set the folder separator back to a slash again. + +Messages in named file +---------------------- + +Under mbox, Dovecot normally stores mail folders in "filesystem" layout. In +this layout, mail folders are stored in mbox files (potentially under +subdirectories) with the same relative path as the mail folder path, for +example: + + * '~/mail/foo' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "foo"; can not + create any mail sub-folders of "foo" + * '~/mail/bar/baz' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "bar/baz"; can + not create any mail sub-folders of "bar/baz" + * ('~/mail/inbox' - mbox file containing mail for INBOX) + +In the example above, we can't create any sub-folders of "foo" because there is +a file 'foo' in the way. So we could think to get rid of that file and put a +directory there instead. But if we do that then we need somewhere to put the +messages for folder "foo". We could think to put them in a specially-named file +in the directory 'foo/'. Then if we wanted to create a sub-folder of "foo" we +would be fine because we could then do that. The rule would then be that +messages go into the specially-named file in the directory corresponding to the +mail folder name. We want want to choose a special name which would be unlikely +to collide with a folder name. We could think to use something like +'mBoX-MeSsAgEs'. Now, it turns out that you can configure Dovecot to do this +using the 'DIRNAME' parameter. For example, using a configuration of: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# Incomplete example. Do not use! +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:DIRNAME=mBoX-MeSsAgEs +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +we would get a layout like this: + + * '~/mail/inbox' - mbox file containing mail for INBOX + * '~/mail/foo/mBoX-MeSsAgEs' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder "foo" + + * '~/mail/foo/bar/mBoX-MeSsAgEs' - mbox file containing mail for mail folder + "foo/bar" + +However there is a problem. Under mbox, setting 'DIRNAME' alone leaves Dovecot +unable to place index files, which would likely result in performance issues, +or worse, if the index directory gets created first, this will obstruct the +creation of the mbox file. So when using 'DIRNAME' with mbox, it is also +necessary to configure 'INDEX'. The question then arises where to put index +files. + +Any directory under the '~/mail' directory could be considered as a mail +folder. We could think to use a name beginning with a dot, for example +'~/mail/.index' but that would then mean that it would not be possible to +create a mail folder called ".index"; unlikely, but it would be nice to have as +few implementation-specific restrictions as possible. + +In addition, by default, Dovecot will create a file '.subscriptions' at the +mail location root to hold a list of mailbox subscriptions. This would make it +impossible to create a mail folder called ".subscriptions". But we can move the +'.subscriptions' file to another directory by using the 'CONTROL' parameter. To +get round these issues, we can add another directory layer which separates +these purposes. For example, using the configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# Trick mbox configuration which allows a mail folder which contains both +# messages and sub-folders +mail_location = +mbox:~/mail/mailboxes:DIRNAME=mBoX-MeSsAgEs:INDEX=~/mail/index:CONTROL=~/mail/control +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +would result in the following layout: + + * '~/mail/mailboxes/foo/mBoX-MeSsAgEs' - mbox file containing messages for + mail folder "foo" + * '~/mail/mailboxes/foo/bar/mBoX-MeSsAgEs' - mbox file containing messages for + mail folder "foo/bar" + * '~/mail/mailboxes/inbox' - mbox file containing messages for INBOX + * '~/mail/control/.subscriptions' - file containg list of subscribed mailboxes + + * '~/mail/index/INBOX/dovecot.index.*' - index files for INBOX + * '~/mail/index/foo/dovecot.index.*' - index files for mail folder "foo" + * '~/mail/index/foo/bar/dovecot.index.*' - index files for mail folder + "foo/bar" + * '~/mail/index/dovecot.mailbox.log' - other index files + +Restrictions on mail folder names are then minimised; we can't have mail +folders with the names "mBoX-M ''eSsAgEs", "dovecot.index.*, or +"dovecot.mailbox.log". + +Unlike the Maildir++ layout approach above, because we are still using +"filesystem" layout, the hierarchy separator remains as a slash. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/MboxLocking.txt b/doc/wiki/MboxLocking.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..47c7c4e --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/MboxLocking.txt @@ -0,0 +1,70 @@ +Mbox Locking +============ + +The only standard way to lock an mbox is using a method called "dotlock".

It's +fine if external software expunges messages or appends new ones. However moving +around existing messages, inserting messages in the middle of the file or +modifying existing messages isn't allowed. + +Especially modifying existing messages (eg. removing attachments) may cause all +kinds of problems. If you do that, at the minimum go and delete +'dovecot.index.cache' file from the mailbox, otherwise weird things may happen. +However IMAP protocol guarantees that messages don't change at all, and +deleting Dovecot's cache file doesn't clear clients' local caches, so it still +may not work right. + +If you insert messages, or if you "undelete" messages (eg. replace mbox from a +backup), you may see errors in Dovecot's logs: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mbox sync: UID inserted in the middle of mailbox /home/tss/mail/inbox (817 > +787, seq=18, idx_msgs=32) +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This is normal. Dovecot just assigned new UIDs for the messages. See below for +other reasons why UID insertions could happen. + +Debugging UID insertions +------------------------ + +The above error message can be read as: "18th message in the mbox file +contained X-UID: 787 header, however the index file at that position told the +message was supposed to have UID 817. There are 32 messages currently in the +index file." + +There are four possibilities why the error message could happen: + + 1. Message with a X-UID: 787 header really was inserted in the mbox file. For + example you replaced mbox from a backup. + 2. Something changed the X-UID headers. I don't think any existing software + can cause this. + 3. The message was expunged from the index file, but for some reason it wasn't + expunged from the mbox file. The index file is updated only after a + successful mbox file modification, so this shouldn't really happen either. + 4. If this problem happens constantly, it could mean that you're sharing the + same index file for multiple different mboxes! + * This could happen if you let Dovecot do mailbox autodetection and it + sometimes uses '/var/mail/%u' (when it exists) and other times + '~/mail/inbox'. Use an explicit <mail_location> [MailLocation.txt] + setting to make sure the same INBOX is used. + * Another possibility is that you're sharing index files between multiple + users. Each user must have their own home directory. + +It's possible that broken X-UID headers in mails and 'mbox_lazy_writes=yes' +combination has some bugs. If you're able to reproduce such an error, please +let me know how.

This is done by both Dovecot and UW-IMAP (and Pine). It's also +stored in 'dovecot.index' file.

The mailbox is accessed (or created if necessary) by UW-IMAP or Pine. It + notices that the mailbox is missing UIDVALIDITY, so it assigns a new + UIDVALIDITY and writes the X-IMAPbase: or X-IMAP: header. + * Also Dovecot that's configured to not use index files behaves the same. + 4. Dovecot accesses again the mailbox. UIDVALIDITY in the mbox file's header + doesn't match the one in 'dovecot.index' file. It logs an error and updates + the UIDVALIDITY in the index file to the new one. + +Crashes +------- + +Dovecot's mbox code is a bit fragile because of the way it works. However +instead of just corrupting the mbox file, it usually assert-crashes whenever it +notices an inconsistency. You may see crashes such as: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Panic: mbox /home/user/mail/mailbox: seq=2 uid=45 uid_broken=0 originally +needed 12 bytes, now needs 27 bytes +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This is a bit difficult problem to fix. Usually this crash has been related to +Dovecot rewriting some headers that were broken. If you see these crashes, it +would really help if you were able to reproduce the crash. + +If you have such a mailbox which crashes every time when it's tried to be +opened, please put the mbox through mbox anonymizer +[http://dovecot.org/tools/mbox-anonymize.pl] and send it, the mailbox's +'dovecot.index' and 'dovecot.index.log' files to tss@iki.fi. None of those +files contain any actual message contents so it's be safe to send them. + +Avoiding crashes and errors +--------------------------- + +Since the problems usually have been related to broken headers, you should be +able to avoid them by filtering out all the Dovecot's internal metadata +headers.

Remove the IMAP namespace prefix from the clients. + 2. Use namespaces to allow users to keep using the prefix. See "Backwards + Compatibility" in <Namespaces.txt> for an example configuration. + 3. Configure Dovecot to use home directory ('mail_location = + mbox:~/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u' and set 'mail_full_filesystem_access=yes'). The + latter is needed to make '~/mail' and '~user/mail' prefixes work. + +A typical mailbox location setting is: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +~/mbox file +----------- + +If a '~/mbox' file exists, UW-IMAP moves all the mails from '/var/mail/user' +into the '~/mbox' file. Currently Dovecot doesn't support this feature. There +are two possibilities to handle this: + + * Move everyone's mails to '~/mbox' and reconfigure your <MDA.txt> to deliver + new mails there by default. + * Move the existing mails from '~/mbox' back to '/var/mail/user'. + +Subscriptions +------------- + +UW-IMAP keeps the list of subscribed mailboxes in '~/.mailboxlist' file, while +Dovecot keeps them in '~/mail/.subscriptions' file. UW-IMAP's subscriptions +also contain the mailboxes with their prefixes, for example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail/box +~/mail/box2 +~user/mail/box3 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + + * If you removed the prefix from the IMAP clients, you'll also have to remove + these prefixes. + * You can use <uw2dovecot.sh.txt> script to copy all the users' '.mailboxlist' + files to '.subscriptions' files (without any prefix removal). + * It's possible to keep using the '.mailboxlist' filename (as long as it's in + the same directory) by modifying 'SUBSCRIPTION_FILE_NAME' define in + 'src/lib-storage/index/mbox/mbox-storage.h' + +UIDs, flags and keywords +------------------------ + +Dovecot uses UW-IMAP compatible metadata headers in mboxes, so it's possible to +migrate back and forth without losing any flags, keywords or cause IMAP UIDs to +change. + +Locking +------- + +UW-IMAP uses dotlock + flock() as the default locking combination, while +Dovecot uses dotlock + fcntl() by default. See <MboxLocking.txt> to determine +what are the correct lock settings for you. To use UW-IMAP compatible locking, +use: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mbox_read_locks = flock +mbox_write_locks = dotlock flock +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +DON'T DELETE THIS MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA +------------------------------------------------- + +The first message in a mbox file may contain the subject "DON'T DELETE THIS +MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA".

Keep them. + +Maildir conversion +------------------ + +If you're planning on migrating to Dovecot, you might also want to switch to +Maildir format as well.

Dovecot can store email in both <mbox> +[MailboxFormat.mbox.txt] and <Maildir> [MailboxFormat.Maildir.txt] formats, +making it compatible with many existing servers. Dovecot is also very flexible +as to where it stores the email.

Tasks for conversion include: + + * <Where and how to store the email> [MailLocation.txt] + * <User authentication> [PasswordDatabase.txt] + * <User database configuration> [UserDatabase.txt] (home directory structure, + UID and GID) + +IMAP migration +-------------- + +When migrating mails from another IMAP server, you should make sure that these +are preserved: + + 1. Message flags + * Lost flags can be really annoying, you most likely want to avoid it. + 2. Message UIDs and UIDVALIDITY value + * If UIDs are lost, at the minimum clients' message cache gets cleaned and + messages are re-downloaded as new. + * Some IMAP clients store metadata by assigning it to specific UID, if + UIDs are changed these will be lost. + 3. Mailbox subscription list + * Users would be able to manually subscribe them again if you don't want + to mess with it. + +POP3 migration +-------------- + +When migrating mails from another POP3 server, you should try to preserve the +old UIDLs. If POP3 client is configured to keep mails in the server and the +messages' UIDLs change, all the messages are downloaded again as new messages. + +*Don't trust the migration scripts or anything you see in this wiki. Verify +manually that the UIDLs are correct before exposing real clients to Dovecot.* +You can do this by logging in using your old POP3 server, issuing UIDL command +and saving the output. Then log in using Dovecot and save its UIDL output as +well. Use e.g.'diff' command to verify that the lists are identical. Note that: + + * *If a client already saw changed UIDLs and decided to start re-downloading + mails, it's unlikely there is anything you can do to stop it. Even going + back to your old server is unlikely to help at that point.* + * Some (many?) POP3 clients also require that the message ordering is + preserved. + * Some clients re-download all mails if you change the hostname in the client + configuration. Be aware of this when testing. + +Some servers (UW, Cyrus) implementing both IMAP and POP3 protocols use the IMAP +UID and UIDVALIDITY values for generating the POP3 UIDL values. To preserve the +POP3 UIDL from such servers you'll need to preserve the IMAP UIDs and set +'pop3_uidl_format' properly. + +If the server doesn't use IMAP UIDs for the POP3 UIDL, you'll need to figure +out another way to do it. One way is to put the UIDL value into X-UIDL: header +in the mails and set 'pop3_reuse_xuidl=yes'. Some POP3 servers (QPopper) write +the X-UIDL: header themselves, making the migration easy. + +Some POP3 servers using Maildir uses the maildir base filename as the UIDL.

The best fix for this is to prevent it from happening. +Configure your setup so that a user always gets redirected to the same server +(unless it's down). This also means that mail deliveries must be done by the +same server, or alternatively it shouldn't update index files. + +Dovecot flushes NFS caches when needed if you set 'mail_nfs_storage=yes', but +unfortunately this doesn't work 100%, so you can get random errors. + +Disabling NFS attribute cache helps a lot in getting rid of caching related +errors, but this makes the performance MUCH worse and increases the load on NFS +server. This can usually be done by giving 'actimeo=0' or 'noac' mount option. + +Index files +----------- + +If you keep the index files stored on NFS, you'll need to set +'mmap_disable=yes'. If you're not running lockd you'll have to set +'lock_method=dotlock', but this degrades performance. Note that some NFS +installations have problems with lockd. If you're beginning to get all kinds of +locking related errors, try if the problems go away with dotlocking. + +With mbox/Maildir formats (but not dbox!) it's also possible to store index +files on local disk instead of on NFS. If the user gets redirected to different +servers, the local indexes are automatically created/updated. If the user is +(nearly) always redirected to the same server this should be fine and you would +likely get higher performance than indexes stored on NFS, but if the server +changes it can be slow to recreate the index/cache files. + +Single computer setup +--------------------- + +This doesn't really differ from keeping mails stored locally. For better +performance you should keep index files stored in a local disk. + +Random redirects to multiple servers +------------------------------------ + +You should avoid this setup whenever possible. Besides the NFS cache problems +described above, mailbox contents can't be cached as well in the memory either. +This is more problematic with mbox than with maildir, but in both cases if a +client is redirected to a different server when reconnecting, the new server +will have to read some data via the NFS into memory, while the original server +might have had the data already cached. + +If you choose to use this setup, at the very least try to make connections from +a single IP redirected into the same server. This avoids the biggest problems +with clients that use multiple connections. + +Per-user redirects to multiple servers +-------------------------------------- + +This method performs a lot better than random redirects. It maximizes the +caching possibilities and prevents the problems caused by simultaneous mailbox +access. + +New mail deliveries are often still handled by different computers. This isn't +a problem with maildir as long as you're not using <LDA.txt> (i.e. +dovecot-uidlist file or index files shouldn't get updated). It shouldn't be a +problem with mboxes either as long as you're using fcntl locking.

The "layout separator" can +only be changed by changing the LAYOUT, which also affects the entire directory +structure. + +The layout separator also restricts the mailbox names. For example if the +layout separator is '.', you can't just set separator to '/' and create a +mailbox named "foo.bar".

"children" means the namespace prefix list listed only if it has + child mailboxes. + * subscriptions: "yes" (default) if this namespace should handle its own + subscriptions. If "no", then the first parent namespace with + subscriptions=yes will handle it. For example if it's "no" for a namespace + with prefix=foo/bar/, Dovecot first sees if there's a prefix=foo/ namespace + with subscriptions=yes and then a namespace with an empty prefix. If neither + is found, an error is given. + * ignore_on_failure: Normally Dovecot fails if it can't successfully create a + namespace. Set this to "yes" to continue even if the namespace creation + fails (e.g. public namespace points to inaccessible location). + * disabled: Set to "yes" to quickly disable this namespace. Especially useful + when returned by a userdb lookup to give per-user namespaces. + * alias_for: If multiple namespaces point to the same location, they should be + marked as aliases against one primary namespace. This avoids duplicating + work for some commands (listing the same mailbox multiple times). The value + for alias_for is the primary namespace's prefix. For example if the primary + namespace has empty prefix, set 'alias_for=' for the alias namespace.

The POP3 specification requires that the sizes are +reported exactly, not just approximately. This means that linefeeds must be +counted as CR+LF characters. Normally with Maildir the linefeeds are stored as +plain LF characters, which means that simply getting the file size would +produce the wrong POP3 message size. Some Maildir POP3 servers do this anyway +and violate the POP3 specification. + +Dovecot returns correct message sizes by reading the entire message and +counting the linefeeds correctly. After this is done, the "virtual size" is +stored into dovecot-uidlist file and future calculations can be avoided by +simply looking up the cached value. + +You can also avoid the initial message size calculation by storing the size +directly into the filename. You can do this by appending ,W=<size> at the end +of the base filename. For example '1199932653.M583975P6568.host,W=2211:2,' is a +file whose virtual size is 2211 bytes (and real size somewhat smaller). Note +that this must not be done for existing files, only to newly delivered mails. + +If Dovecot's LDA is used, dovecot-uidlist and the index files are updated upon +message arrival, therefore there will be no message-size performance issues. + +'pop3_fast_size_lookups=yes' setting in v2.0.5+ uses the virtual message sizes +when they're already available, but fallbacks to using the physical message +sizes (violating POP3 specifications, but then again a lot of POP3 servers do +that). + +mbox Performance +---------------- + +Index files are quite useless if your users don't keep mails in the server. +They get first updated when the POP3 session starts to include all the +messages, and after the user has deleted all the mails, they again get updated +to contain zero mails. With this kind of a session the index reads and writes +could have been avoided if the index files had just been completely disabled. + +You may want to try how performance changes if you disable indexes for POP3 +users. You can also try preserving indexes but try different values for +'mbox_min_index_size' setting. + +Do not disable indexing if there are users that do not delete messages after +downloading them. Also, if you use Dovecot LDA, indexes may be helpful to have +fast access to the message sizes. + +Session locking +--------------- + +By default Dovecot allows multiple POP3 connections to the same mailbox. This +is (was?) especially useful for dialup connections which die in the middle of +the download, because the half-dead connections won't keep the mailbox locked. + +Setting 'pop3_lock_session=yes' makes Dovecot lock the mailbox for the whole +session. This is also what the POP3 RFC [http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1939.txt] +specifies that should be done. If another connection comes while the mailbox is +locked, Dovecot waits until the locking times out (2 minutes with +Maildir,'mbox_lock_timeout' with mbox). In future there will be a separate +'pop3_lock_timeout' setting which allows timing out sooner. + +Flag changes +------------ + +By default when a message is RETRed, \Seen flag is added to it. POP3 itself +doesn't support flags, but if the mailbox is opened with IMAP (eg. from +webmail) it's shown as seen. You can disable this (to get better performance) +with 'pop3_no_flag_updates=yes'. + +POP3 client workarounds +----------------------- + +'pop3_client_workarounds' setting allows you to set some workarounds to avoid +POP3 clients breaking with some broken mails. + +Following are supported + + * outlook-no-nuls - Converts 0x0 in data to 0x80 + * oe-ns-eoh - Add missing end of header line + +UIDL format +----------- + +UIDLs are used by POP3 clients to keep track of what messages they've +downloaded, typically only if you've enabled "keep messages in server" option. +If the UIDL changes, the existing messages are re-downloaded as new messages, +which the users don't really appreciate. + +Dovecot supports multiple different ways to set the UIDL format, mostly to make +migrations from other POP3 servers transparent by preserving the old UIDL +values. See <Migration.txt> for how to set the UIDLs to be compatible with your +previous POP3 server. + +For new POP3 servers, the easiest way to set up UIDLs is to use IMAP's +UIDVALIDITY and UID values. The default in Dovecot v1.1+ is: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Another good default is to use the message's global UID: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +pop3_uidl_format = %g +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +However, note that GUIDs may not be unique, as the GUID does not change when a +message is copied. (While copying is not possible using only POP3, it can be +done using IMAP, Sieve, or doveadm.) + +Some formats, such as the previous default '%v.%u', seem to have problems with +Outlook 2003. + +MD5 UIDL format (mbox-only) +--------------------------- + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +pop3_uidl_format = %m +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This works by getting the MD5 sum of a couple of message headers that uniquely +identify the message. The one good thing about MD5 format is that it doesn't +rely on the IMAP UID or UIDVALIDITY value. This allows you to modify the mbox +files in ways that Dovecot doesn't like, without causing the UIDLs to change. +For example: + + * Inserting messages in the middle of mbox files (eg. restoring mbox files + from backups can cause "Expunged message reappeared" errors) + * Reordering messages inside mbox + * <Other random problems> [MboxProblems.txt] causing UID renumbering (although + you should figure out why they're happening) + +The MD5 summing method however doesn't work well if you receive two identical +messages. Usually the MD5 sum is taken from these headers: + + * The first Received: header + * Delivered-To: header + +Normally there won't be a problem, because the MTA adds a unique identifier to +the first Received: header. If the same message is sent to multiple users in +one delivery, the Delivered-To: header is still different, making the MD5 sum +different. + +Except the MTA can be configured to support aliases, so for example sending the +mail to both root@ and webmail@ aliases causes the message to be delivered to +the same user, with identical Received: and Delivered-To: headers. The messages +really are identical, so their MD5 sums are also identical, and that can cause +some POP3 clients to keep downloading the messages over and over again, never +deleting them. + +To avoid this, there's also a 3rd header that is included in the MD5 sum +calculation: + + * X-Delivery-ID: header + +If you use <Dovecot's deliver> [LDA.txt] or IMAP APPEND and 'pop3_uidl_format = +%m', it always appends the X-Delivery-ID: header to saved mailbox.

For now you need to add the trusted remote + certificates to 'ssl_ca'. + * *NOTE:* LMTP proxying supports SSL/TLS only since v2.3.1 - for older + versions any ssl/starttls extra field is ignored. + * *NOTE:* doveadm proxying doesn't support SSL/TLS currently - any + ssl/starttls extra field is ignored. + * 'ssl=any-cert': Use SSL, but don't require a valid remote certificate. + * 'starttls=yes': Use STARTTLS command instead of doing SSL handshake + immediately after connected. + * 'starttls=any-cert': Combine starttls and ssl=any-cert. + * Additionally you can also tell Dovecot to send SSL client certificate to the + remote server using 'ssl_client_cert' and 'ssl_client_key' settings in + 'dovecot.conf' (v2.0.17+). + +Set 'login_trusted_networks' to point to the proxies in the backends. This way +you'll get the clients' actual IP addresses logged instead of the proxy's. + +The destination servers don't need to be running Dovecot, but you should make +sure that the Dovecot proxy doesn't advertise more capabilities than the +destination server can handle. For IMAP you can do this by changing +'imap_capability' setting. For POP3 you'll have to modify Dovecot's sources for +now ('src/pop3/capability.h'). Dovecot also automatically sends updated +untagged CAPABILITY reply if it detects that the remote server has different +capabilities than what it already advertised to the client, but some clients +simply ignore the updated CAPABILITY reply. + +v2.2.14+: If your proxy handles a lot of connections (~64k) to the same +destination IP you may run out of TCP ports. The only way to work around this +is to use either multiple destination IPs or ports, or multiple source IPs. +Multiple source IPs can be easily used by adding them to the 'login_source_ips' +setting in 'dovecot.conf'. You can also use hostnames which expand to multiple +IPs. By prefixing the setting with "?" (e.g.'login_source_ips = +?proxy-sources.example.com') Dovecot will use only those IPs that actually +exist in the server, allowing you to share the same config file with multiple +servers. It's probably better not to include the server's default outgoing IP +address in the setting, as explained here +[https://idea.popcount.org/2014-04-03-bind-before-connect/]. + +v2.2.19+: To avoid reconnection load spikes when a backend server dies, you can +tell proxy to spread the client disconnections over a longer time period (after +the server side of the connection is already +disconnected).'login_proxy_max_disconnect_delay' setting in 'dovecot.conf' +controls this (disabled by default). + +v2.2.29+: You can forward arbitratry variables by returning them prefixed with +'forward_'. Dovecot will use protocol dependant way to forward these variables +forward and they will appear on the other side as 'forward_variable' Currently +IMAP/POP3 only feature. This feature requires that the sending host is in +login_trusted_networks. For IMAP the feature works by providing the variables +as part of ID command, such as 'i ID ( ... "x-forward-var" "value")'. For POP3 +the forwarding mecahism uses 'XCLIENT' with 'FORWARD=<base64 encoded blob of +forwarded variables>' + +See <Design.ParameterForwarding.txt> for more details on forwarding. + +Moving users between backends/clusters (v2.2.25+) +------------------------------------------------- + +A safe way to move users from one cluster to another is to do it like: + + * Set delay_until=<timestamp> <passdb extra field> + [PasswordDatabase.ExtraFields.txt] where <timestamp> is the current + timestamp plus some seconds into future (e.g. 31s). You may also want to + append e.g. "+5" for some load balancing if a lot of users are moved at + once. + * Set host=<new host> passdb extra field. This update should be atomic + together with the delay_until field. + * Use "doveadm proxy kick" or "doveadm director kick" to kick the user's + existing connections. + * The processes may still continue running in the backend for a longer + time. If you want to be absolutely sure, you could also run a script to + kill -9 all processes for the user in the backend. This of course has its + own problems. + +The idea here is that while the user's connections are being kicked and the +backend processes are finishing up and shutting down, new connections are being +delayed in the proxy. This delay should be long enough that the user's existing +processes are expected to die, but not so large that clients get connection +timeouts. A bit over 30 seconds is likely a good value. Once the delay_until +timestamp is reached, the connections continue to the new host. + +If you have a lot of users, it helps to group some of them together and do the +host/delay_until updates on a per-group basis rather than per-user basis. + +ID command forwarding (v2.2.29+) +-------------------------------- + +If you want to forward, for some reason, the IMAP ID command provided by the +client, set + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +imap_id_retain=yes +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This will also enable client_id variable in variable expansions for auth +requests, which will contain the ID command as IMAP arglist. + +Password forwarding +------------------- + +If you don't want proxy itself to do authentication, you can configure it to +succeed with any given password.

PAM is not +itself a password database, but rather its configuration tells the system how +exactly to do the authentication. Usually this means using the 'pam_unix.so' +module, which authenticates user from the system's shadow password file. + +Because PAM is not an actual database, only plaintext authentication mechanisms +can be used with PAM. PAM cannot be used as a user database either (although +static user templates could be used to provide the same effect). Usually PAM is +used with <passwd> [AuthDatabase.Passwd.txt] (NSS) or <static> +[UserDatabase.Static.txt] user databases. + +Dovecot should work with Linux PAM, Solaris PAM, OpenPAM (FreeBSD) and ApplePAM +(Mac OS X). + +Service name +------------ + +The PAM configuration is usually in the '/etc/pam.d/' directory, but some +systems may use a single file,'/etc/pam.conf'. By default Dovecot uses +'dovecot' as the PAM service name, so the configuration is read from +'/etc/pam.d/dovecot'. You can change this by giving the wanted service name in +the 'args' parameter. You can also set the service to '%s' in which case +Dovecot automatically uses either 'imap' or 'pop3' as the service, depending on +the actual service the user is logging in to.

Because of this, many PAM plugins leak memory and possibly +have some other problems when doing multiple lookups.

For this to work with PAM, you'll also have to give 'cache_key' +parameter. Usually the user is authenticated only based on the username and +password, but PAM plugins may do all kinds of other checks as well, so this +can't be relied on. For this reason the 'cache_key' must contain all the +<variables> [Variables.txt] that may affect authentication. The commonly used +variables are: + + * '%u' - Username.

This is similar to the behavior of + the mail daemons regarding the 'mail_location' configuration. + * ManageSieve maintains a symbolic link pointing to the currently active + script (the script executed at delivery).

That storage directory is then configured using the deprecated + 'sieve_dir' setting. + +Quota Support +------------- + +By default, users can manage an unlimited number of Sieve scripts on the server +throughManageSieve. However, ManageSieve can be configured to enforce limits on +the number of personal Sieve scripts per user and/or the amount of disk storage +used by these scripts. The maximum size of individual uploaded scripts is +dictated by the configuration of the <Sieve interpreter> +[Pigeonhole.Sieve.txt]. The limits are configured in the plugin section of the +Dovecot configuration as follows: + +sieve_max_script_size = 1M: + The maximum size of a Sieve script. + +sieve_quota_max_scripts = 0: + The maximum number of personal Sieve scripts a single user can have. + +sieve_quota_max_storage = 0: + The maximum amount of disk storage a single user's scripts may occupy. + +A value of 0 for these settings means that no limit is enforced. + +Examples +-------- + +The following provides example configurations for ManageSieve in dovecot.conf +for the various versions.

Also, the 'sieve' and 'sieve_storage' settings were + located inside the 'protocol managesieve' section of the configuration. As + per Dovecot v1.2 these settings are shared with the Sieve plugin and located + in the 'plugin' section of the configuration. Make sure you have updated the + name of the 'sieve_dir' setting and the location of both these settings if + you are upgrading fromManageSieve for Dovecot v1.0/v1.1. + * Pigeonhole ManageSieve does not use the 'mail_location' configuration as a + fall-back anymore to determine a default location for storing Sieve scripts. + It always uses the 'sieve_dir' setting, with default value '~/sieve'. + * The Pigeonhole ManageSieve service now binds to TCP port 4190 by default due + to the IANA port assignment for theManageSieve service. When upgrading from + v1.x, this should be taken into account. For a smooth transition, the + service can be configured manually to listen on both port 2000 and port + 4190, as demonstrated in the example section. + * The Dovecot configuration now calls the ManageSieve protocol 'sieve' instead + of 'managesieve' because it is registered as such with IANA. The binaries + and the services are still called 'managesieve' and 'managesieve-login'. The + example section demonstrates how this affects the configuration. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Install.txt b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Install.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b9f67ad --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Install.txt @@ -0,0 +1,2 @@ + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Troubleshooting.txt b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Troubleshooting.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d19bd18 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.Troubleshooting.txt @@ -0,0 +1,201 @@ +ManageSieve Troubleshooting +=========================== + +Like Dovecot itself, *the ManageSieve service always logs a detailed error +message* if something goes wrong at the server (refer to <Dovecot Logging> +[Logging.txt] for more details): the logs are the first place to look if you +suspect something is wrong. To get additional debug messages in your log file, +you should set 'mail_debug=yes' in dovecot.conf (inside 'protocol sieve {...} +'if you want to enable this forManageSieve only). + +If the client commits protocol violations or sends invalid scripts, an error +response is provided to the client which is not necessarily logged on the +server. A goodManageSieve client presents such error messages to the user. + +Keep in mind that the the ManageSieve service only provides the Sieve +/protocol/, which may be somewhat confusing. This protocol can only be used to +/upload/ Sieve scripts and /activate/ them for execution. Performing the steps +below therefore only verifies that this functionality is working and *not* +whether Sieve scripts are correctly being executed upon delivery. The execution +of Sieve scripts is performed by the Dovecot <Local Delivery Agent (LDA)> +[LDA.txt] or its <LMTP service> [LMTP.txt] using the <LDA Sieve plugin> +[Pigeonhole.Sieve.txt]. If you have problems with Sieve script execution upon +delivery, you are referred to the <Sieve Troubleshooting page> +[Pigeonhole.Sieve.Troubleshooting.txt]. + +Manual Login and Script Upload +------------------------------ + +If you fail to login or upload scripts to the server, it is not necessarily +caused by Dovecot or your configuration. It is often best to test +yourManageSieve server manually first. This also provides you with the direct +error messages from the server without intermission of your client. If you do +not use TLS, you can connect using a simple 'telnet' or 'netcat' connection to +the configured port (typically 4190 or 2000 for older setups). Otherwise you +must use a TLS-capable text protocol client like 'gnutls-cli' as described +below. Upon connection, the server presents the initial greeting with its +capabilities: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +"IMPLEMENTATION" "dovecot" +"SASL" "PLAIN" +"SIEVE" "comparator-i;ascii-numeric fileinto reject vacation imapflags notify +include envelope body relational regex subaddress copy" +"STARTTLS" +OK "Dovecot ready." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Note that the reported 'STARTTLS' capability means that the server accepts TLS, +but, since you are using telnet/netcat, you cannot use this (refer to Manual +TLS Login below). The 'SASL' capability lists the available SASL authentication +mechanisms. If this list is empty and 'STARTTLS' is available, it probably +means that the server forces you to initiate TLS first (as dictated by +''disable_plaintext_auth=yes'' in dovecot.conf). + +Now you need to log in. Although potentially multiple SASL mechanisms are +available, only 'PLAIN' is described here. Authentication is performed using +theManageSieve 'AUTHENTICATE' command. This command typically looks as follows +when the 'PLAIN' mechanism is used: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" "<base64-encoded credentials>" +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The credentials are the base64-encoded version of the string +'"\0<username>\0<password"' (in which '\0' represents the ASCII NUL character). +Generating this is cumbersome and a bit daunting for the novice user, so for +convenience a simple Perl script is provided to generate the 'AUTHENTICATE' +command for you. It is available here +[http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org/utilities/sieve-auth-command.pl] and used as +follows: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +sieve-auth-command.pl <username> <password> +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The command is written to stdout and you can paste this to your protocol +session, e.g.: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" "AHVzZXJuYW1lAHBhc3N3b3Jk" +OK "Logged in." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Now that you are logged in, you can upload a script. This is done using the +'PUTSCRIPT' command. Its first argument is the name for the script and its +second argument is a string literal. A string literal starts with a length +specification ''{<bytes>+}'' followed by a newline. Thereafter the server +expects '<bytes>' bytes of script data. The following uploads a trivial 6 byte +long sieve script that keeps every message (6th byte is the newline character): + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +PUTSCRIPT "hutsefluts" {6+} +keep; +OK "Putscript completed." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Upon successful upload, you should find a file called 'hutsefluts.sieve' in +your 'sieve_dir' directory. The script should also be listed by the server as +follows when the 'LISTSCRIPTS' command is issued: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +LISTSCRIPTS +"hutsefluts" +OK "Listscripts completed." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +You can check whether your script is uploaded correctly by downloading it using +the 'GETSCRIPT' command. This command accepts the name of the downloaded script +as its only parameter: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +GETSCRIPT "hutsefluts" +{6} +keep; +OK "Getscript completed." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +To let the Sieve plugin use your newly uploaded script, you must activate it +using the 'SETACTIVE' command (only one script can be active at any time).

This command-line utility is part of the GNUTLS distribution +and on most systems this should be easy to install. It is used to connect +toManageSieve as follows: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +gnutls-cli --starttls -p <port> <host> +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This starts the client in plain text mode first.

If +'STARTTLS' is listed, you can issue the 'STARTTLS' command as follows: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +STARTTLS +OK "Begin TLS negotiation now." +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If an OK response is given by the server you can press 'Ctrl-D' to make +'gnutls-cli' start the TLS negotiation.

A common method is to sniff the client protocol session using a tool +like 'ngrep'. However, this will not work when TLS is active. If the problem is +not specific to TLS, you are advised to temporarily turn off TLS and sniff the +plain text protocol. If TLS is part of the issue, you can use Dovecot's +<rawlog> [Debugging.Rawlog.txt] facility to see what is going on if the client +is logged in. If the authentication is the problem, there is no real nice way +to obtain a transcript of the protocol. One way is to run managesieve from +inetd, wrapping it into a script that writes the protocol messages somewhere +(*FIXME*: This needs some checking and explanation).

From Dovecot Sieve v0.1.x (Dovecot v1.2) + +Script Locations +---------------- + +The Sieve interpreter can retrieve Sieve scripts from several types of +locations. The default 'file' location type is a directory containing one or +more Sieve script files with a symlink pointing to the active one. More complex +setups can use other location types such as 'ldap' or 'dict' to fetch Sieve +scripts from remote databases. + +All settings that specify the location of one or more Sieve scripts accept the +following syntax:: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +<setting> = [<type>:]path[;<option>[=<value>][;...]] +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The following script location types are implemented by default: + +file : + The location path is a file system path pointing to a directory containing + one or more script files with names structured as '<script-name>.sieve' with + the active option (default ~/.dovecot.sieve) specifying a symlink to the one + that will be used, or without the active option specified, it may be a script + file instead of a directory. Read <this wiki page> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.File.txt] for more information and examples. + +dict : + The location path is a Dovecot dict uri. Read <this wiki page> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.Dict.txt] for more information and examples. + +ldap : + LDAP database lookup. The location path is a configuration file with LDAP + options. Read <this wiki page> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.LDAP.txt] for + more information and examples. + +If the type prefix is omitted, the script location type is 'file' and the +location is interpreted as a local filesystem path pointing to a Sieve script +file or directory. + +The following options are defined for all location types: + +name=<script-name> : + Set the name of the Sieve script that this location points to. If the name of + the Sieve script is not contained in the location path and the location of a + single script is specified, this option is required (e.g. for 'dict' + locations that must point to a particular script). If the name of the script + is contained in the location path, the value of the name option overrides the + name retrieved from the location. If the Sieve interpreter explicitly queries + for a specific name (e.g. to let the Sieve include extension + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-include-05] retrieve a script + from the 'sieve_global=' location), this option has no effect. + +bindir=<dirpath> : + Points to the directory where the compiled binaries for this script location + are stored. This directory is created automatically if possible. If this + option is omitted, the behavior depends on the location type. For 'file' type + locations, the binary is then stored in the same directory as where the + script file was found if possible. For `dict' type locations, the binary is + not stored at all in that case. Don't specify the same directory for + different script locations, as this will result in undefined behavior. + Multiple mail users can share a single script directory if the script + location is the same and all users share the same system credentials (uid, + gid). + +*NOTE*: Pigeonhole versions before v0.3.1 do not support the location syntax +described here. These versions only support bare filesystem paths pointing to +files or directores as script storage location. Also, in that case a few +additional <deprecated settings> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt] are +needed for configuration. + +Basic Configuration +------------------- + +To use Sieve, you will first need to make sure you are using Dovecot <LDA.txt> +or <LMTP.txt> for delivering incoming mail to users' mailboxes. Then, you need +to enable the Pigeonhole Sieve plugin in your configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +protocol lda { + mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve +} +protocol lmtp { + mail_plugins = $mail_plugins sieve +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The sieve plugin recognizes the following configuration options in the 'plugin' +section of the config file (default values are shown if applicable): + +sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve : + The location of the user's main Sieve script or script storage. The + <LDA.txt> Sieve plugin uses this to find the active script for Sieve + filtering at delivery. The Sieve include extension + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-include-05] uses this location + for retrieving ":personal" scripts. + +: + This location is also where the <ManageSieve> [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt] + service will store the user's scripts, if supported by the location type. For + the 'file' location type, the location will then be the path to the storage + directory for all the user's personal Sieve scripts. <ManageSieve> + [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt] maintains a symbolic link pointing to the + currently active script (the script executed at delivery). The location of + this symbolic link can be configured using the ';active=<path>' option. + +: + For Pigeonhole versions before v0.3.1, this setting can only be a filesystem + path pointing to a script file, or - when <ManageSieve> + [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt] is used - it is the location of the symbolic + link pointing to the active script in the storage directory. That storage + directory is then configured using the deprecated 'sieve_dir' setting. + +sieve_default = (v0.3+) : + The location of the default personal sieve script file which gets executed + ONLY if user's private Sieve script does not exist, + e.g.'file:/var/lib/dovecot/default.sieve' (check the <multiscript section> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt] for instructions on running global Sieve + scripts before and after the user's personal script). This is usually a + global script, so be sure to pre-compile the specified script manually in + that case using the 'sievec' command line tool, as explained <here> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Usage.txt]. This setting used to be called + 'sieve_global_path', but that name is now deprecated. + +sieve_default_name = (v0.4.8+) : + The name by which the default Sieve script is visible to <ManageSieve> + [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt] clients. Normally, it is not visible at all. + Refer to the <visible default script section> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt] for more information. + +sieve_global = : + Location for :global include scripts for the Sieve include extension + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-include-05]. This setting used + to be called 'sieve_global_dir', but that name is now deprecated. + +sieve_discard = (v0.4.16+) : + The location of a Sieve script that is run for any message that is about to + be discarded; i.e., it is not delivered anywhere by the normal Sieve + execution. This only happens when the "implicit keep" is canceled, by e.g. + the "discard" action, and no actions that deliver the message are executed. + This "discard script" can prevent discarding the message, by executing + alternative actions. If the discard script does nothing, the message is still + discarded as it would be when no discard script is configured. + +sieve_extensions = : + Which Sieve language extensions are available to users. By default, all + supported extensions are available, except for deprecated extensions, + extensions that add the ability to change messages, extensions that require + explicit configuration or extensions that are still under development. Some + system administrators may want to disable certain Sieve extensions or enable + those that are not available by default. All supported extensions are listed + <here> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.txt]. Normally, all enabled extensions must be + listed for this setting, but starting with Sieve version 0.1.7, this setting + can use '+' and '-' to specify differences relative to the default. For + example 'sieve_extensions = +imapflags' will enable the deprecated imapflags + extension [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-melnikov-sieve-imapflags-03] in + addition to all extensions enabled by default. + +sieve_global_extensions = (v0.3+) : + Which Sieve language extensions are ONLY avalable in global scripts. This can + be used to restrict the use of certain Sieve extensions to administrator + control, for instance when these extensions can cause security concerns. This + setting has higher precedence than the 'sieve_extensions' setting (above), + meaning that the extensions enabled with this setting are never available to + the user's personal script no matter what is specified for the + 'sieve_extensions' setting. The syntax of this setting is similar to the + 'sieve_extensions' setting, with the difference that extensions are enabled + or disabled for exclusive use in global scripts. Currently, no extensions are + marked as such by default. + +sieve_implicit_extensions = (v0.4.13+) : + Which Sieve language extensions are implicitly available to users. The + extensions listed in this setting do not need to be enabled explicitly using + the Sieve "require" command. This behavior directly violates the Sieve + standard, but can be necessary for compatibility with some existing + implementations of Sieve (notably jSieve). Do not use this setting unless you + really need to! The syntax and semantics of this setting are otherwise + identical to the 'sieve_extensions' setting. + +sieve_plugins = : + The Pigeonhole Sieve interpreter can have plugins of its own. Using this + setting, the used plugins can be specified. Check the <Sieve plugins page> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Plugins.txt] for available plugins. + +sieve_user_email = (v0.4.14+) : + The primary e-mail address for the user. This is used as a default when no + other appropriate address is available for sending messages. If this setting + is not configured, either the postmaster or null "<>" address is used as a + sender, depending on the action involved. This setting is important when + there is no message envelope to extract addresses from, such as when the + script is executed in IMAP. + +sieve_user_log = : + The path to the file where the user log file is written. If not configured, a + default location is used. If the main user's personal Sieve (as configured + with 'sieve=') is a file, the logfile is set to '<filename>.log' by default. + If it is not a file, the default user log file is '~/.dovecot.sieve.log'. + +recipient_delimiter = +: + The separator that is expected between the :user and :detail address parts + introduced by the subaddress extension [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5233/]. + This may also be a sequence of characters (e.g. '--'). The current + implementation looks for the separator from the left of the localpart and + uses the first one encountered. The :user part is left of the separator and + the :detail part is right. This setting is also used by Dovecot's <LMTP.txt> + service with identical semantics. + +sieve_redirect_envelope_from = sender (v0.4.4+): + Specifies what envelope sender address is used for redirected messages. + Normally, the Sieve "redirect" command copies the sender address for the + redirected message from the processed message. So, the redirected message + appears to originate from the original sender. The following values are + supported for this setting: + "sender" : + The sender address is used (default) + + "recipient" : + The final recipient address is used + + "orig_recipient" : + The original recipient is used + + "user_email" (v0.4.14+): + The user's primary address is used. This is configured with the + "sieve_user_email" setting. If that setting is not configured, "user_mail" + is equal to "sender" (the default). + + "postmaster" : + The postmaster_address configured for LDA/LMTP. + + "<user@domain>" : + Redirected messages are always sent from user@domain. The angle brackets + are mandatory. The null "<>" address is also supported. + +: + When the envelope sender of the processed message is the null address "<>", + the envelope sender of the redirected message is also always "<>", + irrespective of what is configured for this setting. + +For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { +... + # The location of the user's main script storage. The active script + # in this storage is used as the main user script executed during + # delivery. The include extension fetches the :personal scripts + # from this location. When ManageSieve is used, this is also where + # scripts are uploaded. This example uses the file system as + # storage, with all the user's scripts located in the directory + # `~/sieve' and the active script (symbolic link) located at + # `~/.dovecot.sieve'. + sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve + + # If the user has no personal active script (i.e. if the location + # indicated in sieve= does not exist or has no active script), use + # this one: + sieve_default = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve + + # The include extension fetches the :global scripts from this + # location. + sieve_global = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/global/ +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Configurable Limits +------------------- + +sieve_max_script_size = 1M : + The maximum size of a Sieve script. The compiler will refuse to compile any + script larger than this limit. If set to 0, no limit on the script size is + enforced. + +sieve_max_actions = 32 : + The maximum number of actions that can be performed during a single script + execution. If set to 0, no limit on the total number of actions is enforced. + +sieve_max_redirects = 4 : + The maximum number of redirect actions that can be performed during a single + script execution. The meaning of 0 differs based on your version. For + versions v0.3.0 and beyond this means that redirect is prohibited. For older + versions, however, this means that the number of redirects is /unlimited/, so + be careful. + +Extension-specific Configuration +-------------------------------- + +The following Sieve language extensions have specific configuration +options/needs: + + * <duplicate> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Duplicate.txt] + * <editheader> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Editheader.txt] (configuration + required) + * <imapsieve> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Plugins.IMAPSieve.txt] (plugin configuration + required) + * <include> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Include.txt] + * <spamtest and virustest> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.SpamtestVirustest.txt] + (configuration required) + * <vacation and vacation-seconds> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Vacation.txt] + * <variables> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Variables.txt] + +Per-user Sieve script location +------------------------------ + +By default, the Dovecot Sieve plugin looks for the user's Sieve script file in +the user's home directory ('~/.dovecot.sieve'). This requires that the <home +directory> [VirtualUsers.txt] is set for the user. + +If you want to store the script elsewhere, you can override the default using +the 'sieve' setting, which specifies the path to the user's script file. This +can be done in two ways: + + 1. Define the 'sieve' setting in the plugin section of 'dovecot.conf'. + 2. Return 'sieve' extra field from <userdb extra fields> + [UserDatabase.ExtraFields.txt]. + +For example, to use a Sieve script file named '<username>.sieve' in +'/var/sieve-scripts', use: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { +... + + sieve = /var/sieve-scripts/%u.sieve +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +You may use templates like %u, as shown in the example. See all <variables> +[Variables.txt]. + +A relative path (or just a filename) will be interpreted to point under the +user's home directory. + +Executing Multiple Scripts Sequentially +--------------------------------------- + +The Dovecot Sieve plugin allows executing multiple Sieve scripts sequentially. +The extra scripts can be executed before and after the user's private script. +For example, this allows executing global Sieve policies before the user's +script. This is not possible using the 'sieve_default' setting, because that is +only used when the user's private script does not exist. The following settings +in the 'plugin' section of the Dovecot config file control the execution +sequence: + +sieve_before = : + +sieve_before2 = : + +sieve_before3 = (etc..) : + Location Sieve of scripts that need to be executed before the user's personal + script. If a 'file' location path points to a directory, all the Sieve + scripts contained therein (with the proper '.sieve' extension) are executed. + The order of execution within that directory is determined by the file names, + using a normal 8bit per-character comparison. Multiple script locations can + be specified by appending an increasing number to the setting name. The Sieve + scripts found from these locations are added to the script execution sequence + in the specified order. Reading the numbered sieve_before settings stops at + the first missing setting, so no numbers may be skipped. + +sieve_after = : + +sieve_after2 = : + +sieve_after3 = (etc..) : + Identical to 'sieve_before', but the specified scripts are executed after the + user's script (only when keep is still in effect, as explained below). + +The script execution ends when the currently executing script in the sequence +does not yield a "keep" result: when the script terminates, the next script is +only executed if an implicit or explicit "keep" is in effect. Thus, to end all +script execution, a script must not execute keep and it must cancel the +implicit keep, e.g. by executing "'discard; stop;'". This means that the +command "'keep;'" has different semantics when used in a sequence of scripts. +For normal Sieve execution, "'keep;'" is equivalent to "'fileinto "INBOX";'", +because both cause the message to be stored in INBOX. However, in sequential +script execution, it only controls whether the next script is executed. Storing +the message into INBOX (the default folder) is not done until the last script +in the sequence executes (implicit) keep. To force storing the message into +INBOX earlier in the sequence, the fileinto command can be used (with "':copy'" +or together with "'keep;'"). + +Apart from the keep action, all actions triggered in a script in the sequence +are executed before continuing to the next script. This means that when a +script in the sequence encounters an error, actions from earlier executed +scripts are not affected. The sequence is broken however, meaning that the +script execution of the offending script is aborted and no further scripts are +executed. An implicit keep is executed in stead. + +Just as for executing a single script the normal way, the Dovecot Sieve plugin +takes care never to duplicate deliveries, forwards or responses. When vacation +actions are executed multiple times in different scripts, the usual error is +not triggered: the subsequent duplicate vacation actions are simply discarded. + +For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { +... + # Global scripts executed before the user's personal script. + # E.g. handling messages marked as dangerous + sieve_before = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/discard-virusses.sieve + + # Domain-level scripts retrieved from LDAP + sieve_before2 = ldap:/etc/dovecot/sieve-ldap.conf;name=ldap-domain + + # User-specific scripts executed before the user's personal script. + # E.g. a vacation script managed through a non-ManageSieve GUI. + sieve_before3 = /var/vmail/%d/%n/sieve-before + + # User-specific scripts executed after the user's personal script. + # (if keep is still in effect) + # E.g. user-specific default mail filing rules + sieve_after = /var/vmail/%d/%n/sieve-after + + # Global scripts executed after the user's personal script + # (if keep is still in effect) + # E.g. default mail filing rules. + sieve_after2 = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/after.d/ +} +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +*IMPORTANT*: Be sure to manually pre-compile the scripts specified by +'sieve_before' and 'sieve_after' using the 'sievec' tool, as explained <here> +[Pigeonhole.Sieve.Usage.txt]. + +Visible Default Script +---------------------- + +The 'sieve_default=' setting specifies the location of a default script that is +executed when the user has no active personal script. Normally, this default +script is invisible to the user; i.e., it is not listed in <ManageSieve> +[Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt]. To give the user the ability to see and read the +default script, it is possible to make it visible under a specific configurable +name using the 'sieve_default_name' setting. This feature is only supported for +Pigeonhole versions 0.4.8 and higher. + +ManageSieve will magically list the default script under that name, even though +it does not actually exist in the user's normal script storage location. This +way, theManageSieve client can see that it exists and it can retrieve its +contents. If no normal script is active, the default is always listed as +active. The user can replace the default with a custom script, by uploading it +under the default script's name. If that custom script is ever deleted, the +default script will reappear from the shadows implicitly. + +This way, ManageSieve clients will not need any special handling for this +feature. If the name of the default script is equal to the name the client uses +for the main script, it will initially see and read the default script when the +user account is freshly created. The user can edit the script, and when the +edited script is saved through theManageSieve client, it will will override the +default script. If the user ever wants to revert to the default, the user only +needs to delete the edited script and the default will reappear. + +The name by which the default script will be known is configured using the +'sieve_default_name' setting. Of course, the 'sieve_default' setting needs to +point to a valid script location as well for this to work. If the default +script does not exist at the indicated location, it is not shown. + +For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { +... + sieve = file:~/sieve;active=~/.dovecot.sieve + + sieve_default = /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/default.sieve + sieve_default_name = roundcube +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Trace Debugging +--------------- + +Trace debugging provides detailed insight in the operations performed by the +Sieve script. Messages about what the Sieve script is doing are written to the +specified directory. This feature is only supported for Pigeonhole versions +0.4.14 and higher. + +*WARNING*: On a busy server, this functionality can quickly fill up the trace +directory with a lot of trace files. Enable this only temporarily and as +selective as possible; e.g., enable this only for a few users by returning the +settings below from userdb as <userdb extra fields> +[UserDatabase.ExtraFields.txt], rather than enabling these for everyone. + +The following settings apply to both the LDA/LMTP Sieve plugin and the +<IMAPSieve> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Plugins.IMAPSieve.txt] plugin: + +sieve_trace_dir = : + The directory where trace files are written. Trace debugging is disabled if + this setting is not configured or if the directory does not exist. If the + path is relative or it starts with "~/" it is interpreted relative to the + current user's home directory. + +sieve_trace_level = : + The verbosity level of the trace messages. Trace debugging is disabled if + this setting is not configured. Possible values are: + "actions" : + Only print executed action commands, like keep, fileinto, reject and + redirect. + + "commands" : + Print any executed command, excluding test commands. + + "tests" : + Print all executed commands and performed tests. + + "matching" : + Print all executed commands, performed tests and the values matched in + those tests. + +sieve_trace_debug = no : + Enables highly verbose debugging messages that are usually only useful for + developers. + +sieve_trace_addresses = no : + Enables showing byte code addresses in the trace output, rather than only the + source line numbers. + +Deprecated Settings +------------------- + +These settings are deprecated in newer versions, but still recognized: + +sieve_global_path = (< v0.2): + The deprecated name for the 'sieve_default' setting. + +sieve_dir = ~/sieve (< v0.3.1): + Directory for :personal include scripts for the include extension + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-include-05]. The Sieve + interpreter only recognizes files that end with a '.sieve' extension, so the + include extension expects a file called 'name.sieve' to exist in the + 'sieve_dir' directory for a script called 'name'. When using <ManageSieve> + [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt], this is also the directory where scripts are + uploaded. For recent Pigeonhole versions, this location is configured as part + of the 'sieve' setting. + +sieve_global_dir = (< v0.3.1): + Directory for :global include scripts for the include extension + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sieve-include-05]. The Sieve + interpreter only recognizes files that end with a '.sieve' extension, so the + include extension expects a file called 'name.sieve' to exist in the + 'sieve_global_dir' directory for a script called 'name'. For recent + Pigeonhole versions, a more generic version of this setting is called + 'sieve_global' and allows locations other than file system directories. + +Migration +--------- + +General Dovecot 2.0 changes +--------------------------- + + * Note that the Dovecot v2.0 <LDA.txt> does not create mailfolders + automatically by default anymore. If your configuration relies on this, you + need to enable the 'lda_mailbox_autocreate' setting for <LDA.txt> or start + using the Sieve mailbox extension's ':create' tag for *fileinto* commands. + * Dovecot v2.0 adds support for <LMTP.txt>. Much like the <Dovecot LDA> + [LDA.txt], it can make use of the Pigeonhole Sieve plugin. Since the + <LMTP.txt> service has its own 'prototocol lmtp' section in the config file, + you need to add the Sieve plugin to the 'mail_plugins' setting there too + when you decide to use <LMTP.txt>. + +From CMUSieve (Dovecot v1.0/v1.1) +--------------------------------- + +For the most part, migration from CMUSieve to Pigeonhole Sieve is just a matter +of changing the used plugin name from *cmusieve* to *sieve* in the +'mail_plugins' option in the 'protocol lda' section of the config file (as +explained <above> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt]). However, there are a +few important differences in the supported Sieve language features: + + * The *imapflags* extension is now called *imap4flags*. The CMUSieve + implementation is based on an old draft specification + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-melnikov-sieve-imapflags-03] that is not + completely compatible with the new version + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5232/]. Particularly, the *mark* and *unmark* + commands were removed from the new specification. For backwards + compatibility, support for the old imapflags extension can be enabled using + the 'sieve_extensions' setting (as explained <above> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt]). This is disabled by default. + * The *notify* extension is now called *enotify*. The CMUSieve implementation + is based on an old draft specification + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-martin-sieve-notify-01] that is not + completely compatible with the new version + [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5435/].

A minimum of 0 indicates that users + are allowed to make the Sieve interpreter send a vacation response message + for every incoming message that meets the other reply criteria (refer to + RFC5230). A value of zero is however not recommended. + +sieve_vacation_max_period = 0 : + This specifies the maximum period that can be specified for the :days tag of + the vacation command. The configured value must be larger than the + sieve_vacation_min_period setting. A value of 0 has a special meaning: it + indicates that there is no upper limit. + +sieve_vacation_default_period = 7d : + This specifies the default period that is used when no :days or :seconds tag + is specified. The configured value must lie between the + sieve_vacation_min_period and sieve_vacation_max_period. + +sieve_vacation_use_original_recipient = no : + This specifies whether the original envelope recipient should be used in the + check for implicit delivery. The vacation command checks headers of the + incoming message, such as To: and Cc: for the address of the recipient, to + verify that the message is explicitly addressed at the recipient. If the + recipient address is not found, the vacation action will not trigger a + response to prevent sending a reply when it is not appropriate. Normally only + the final recipient address is used in this check. This setting allows + including the original recipient specified in the SMTP session if available. + This is useful to handle mail accounts with aliases. Use this option with + caution: if you are using aliases that point to more than a single account, + senders can get multiple vacation responses for a single message. Use the + <LDA.txt> '-a' option or the <LMTP.txt>/ <LDA.txt> + 'lda_original_recipient_header' setting to make the original SMTP recipient + available to Sieve. + +sieve_vacation_dont_check_recipient = no : + This disables the checks for implicit delivery entirely. This means that the + vacation command does not verify that the message is explicitly addressed at + the recipient. Use this option with caution. Specifying 'yes' will violate + the Sieve standards and can cause vacation replies to be sent for messages + not directly addressed at the recipient. + +sieve_vacation_send_from_recipient = no : + This setting determines whether vacation messages are sent with the SMTP MAIL + FROM envelope address set to the recipient address of the Sieve script owner. + Normally this is set to<>, which is the default as recommended in the + specification. This is meant to prevent mail loops. However, there are + situations for which a valid sender address is required and this setting can + be used to accommodate for those. + +Invalid values for the settings above will make the Sieve interpreter log a +warning and revert to the default values. + +See also <how vacation auto-reply uses addresses> [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Usage.txt]. + +Example +------- + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + # Use vacation-seconds + sieve_extensions = +vacation-seconds + + # One hour at minimum + sieve_vacation_min_period = 1h + + # Ten days default + sieve_vacation_default_period = 10d + + # Thirty days at maximum + sieve_vacation_max_period = 30d +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Variables.txt b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Variables.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..ee7a7f7 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Pigeonhole.Sieve.Extensions.Variables.txt @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +Pigeonhole Sieve: Variables Extension +===================================== + +The Sieve *variables* extension (RFC5229 [http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5229/]) +adds the concept of variables to the Sieve language. + +Configuration +============= + +The *variables* extension is available by default.

If personal user scripts +also need to directly access external programs, the extensions need to be added +to the 'sieve_extensions' setting. + +The commands introduced by the Sieve language extensions in this plugin can +directly pipe a message or string data to an external program (typically a +shell script) by forking a new process. Alternatively, these can connect to a +unix socket behind which a Dovecot script service is listening to start the +external program, e.g. to execute as a different user or for added security. + +The program name specified for the new Sieve 'pipe', 'filter' and 'execute' +commands is used to find the program or socket in a configured directory. +Separate directories are specified for the sockets and the directly executed +binaries. The socket directory is searched first. Since the use of "/" in +program names is prohibited, it is not possible to build a hierarchical +structure. + +Directly forked programs are executed with a limited set of environment +variables:'HOME', 'USER', 'SENDER', 'RECIPIENT' and 'ORIG_RECIPIENT'. Programs +executed through the script-pipe socket service currently have no environment +set at all. + +If a shell script is expected to read a message or string data, it must fully +read the provided input until the data ends with EOF, otherwise the Sieve +action invoking the program will fail. The action will also fail when the shell +script returns a nonzero exit code. Standard output is available for returning +a message (for the filter command) or string data (for the execute command) to +the Sieve interpreter. Standard error is written to the LDA log file. + +The three extensions introduced by this plugin - 'vnd.dovecot.pipe', +'vnd.dovecot.filter' and 'vnd.dovecot.execute' - each have separate but similar +configuration.

If you don't see lines such as the above, + your MTA is probably not using Dovecot for local delivery. You can verify + whether Dovecot is working correctly by executing 'dovecot-lda' manually. + +The Sieve plugin is not enabled : + The Dovecot <LDA.txt> and <LMTP.txt> services do not provide Sieve support by + default. Sieve support is provided as a separate plugin that needs to be + enabled by adding it to the 'mail_plugins' setting in the 'protocol lda {...} + ' section for the LDA and the 'protocol lmtp {...} ' section for LMTP. If + this is omitted, Sieve scripts are ignored. Check the <configuration page> + [Pigeonhole.Sieve.Configuration.txt] for more information.

Unfortunately, the +author of this script used the wrong encoding. This is modified UTF-7 such as +used by IMAP. However, Sieve expects UTF-8 for mailbox names. Depending on +version and configuration, Dovecot uses modified UTF-7 internally. The Sieve +interpreter expects UTF-8 and converts that to UTF-7 when necessary. When the +mailbox is encoded in UTF-7 by the user, the '&' will just be escaped into '&-' +during the UTF-7 conversion, yielding an erroneous mailbox name for Dovecot. +That is what causes the error message presented above.

The Pigeonhole +Sieve implementation uses the '.svbin' extension to store compiled Sieve +scripts (e.g.'.dovecot.svbin'). To store the binary, the plugin needs write +access in the directory in which the script is located. + +A problem occurs when a global script is encountered by the plugin. For +security reasons, global script directories are not supposed to be writable by +the user. Therefore, the plugin cannot store the binary when the script is +first compiled. Note that this doesn't mean that the old compiled version of +the script is used when the binary cannot be written: it compiles and uses the +current script version. The only real problem is that the plugin will not be +able to update the binary on disk, meaning that the global script needs to be +recompiled each time it needs to be executed, i.e. for every incoming message, +which is inefficient. + +To mitigate this problem, the administrator must manually pre-compile global +scripts using the 'sievec' command line tool. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +sievec /var/lib/dovecot/sieve/global/ +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This is necessary for scripts listed in the 'sieve_global_path', 'sieve_before' +and 'sieve_after' settings. For global scripts that are only included in other +scripts using the Sieve include extension, this step is not necessary, since +included scripts are incorporated into the binary produced for the main script. + +Compile and Runtime Logging +--------------------------- + +Log messages produced during script compilation or during script execution are +written to two locations by the LDA Sieve plugin: + + * A log file is written in the same directory as the user's main private + script (as specified by the 'sieve' setting). This log file bears the name + of that script file appended with ".log", e.g.'.dovecot.sieve.log'. If there + are errors or warnings in the script, the messages are appended to that log + file until it eventually grows too large (>10 kB currently). When that + happens, the old log file is moved to a ".log.0" file and an empty log file + is started. Informational messages are not written to this log file and the + log file is not created until messages are actually logged, i.e. when an + error or warning is produced. + * Messages that could be of interest to the system administrator are also + written to the Dovecot logging facility (usually syslog). This includes + informational messages that indicate what actions are executed on incoming + messages.

Dovecot +communicates to it using HTTP/XML queries. + +The steps described in this wiki page are tested for Solr 7.7.0. For other +versions, this these steps may need to be adjusted. + +Compiling +--------- + +Dovecot is not compiled with Solr FTS support by default. To enable it, you +need to add the '--with-solr' parameter to your invocation of the 'configure' +script. You will also need to have libexpat installed, including development +headers (typically from a separate development package).

There's also a "New Squat" +redesign/reimplementation going on, which will likely end up having a new name. + +The main difference between Squat indexes and the others is that Squat provides +support for substring searches, while pretty much all other FTS indexes support +only matching from the beginning of words. By strictly reading the IMAP RFC it +requires substring matching, so to optimize regular TEXT and BODY searches you +must use Squat with Dovecot v2.0. The other indexes are used only for Dovecot's +non-standard X-TEXT-FAST and X-BODY-FAST searches. However, almost all other +commonly used IMAP servers no longer care about this requirement, so Dovecot +v2.1 also no longer makes this distinction. In Dovecot v2.1 TEXT and BODY +searches are done using any indexes available. + + * The Squat indexes are currently updated only when SEARCH TEXT or SEARCH BODY + command is used. It's planned that in future they could be updated + immediately when messages are being saved. + * The Squat indexes take about 30% of the mailbox size (with partial=4 + full=4). + * The initial Squat index building for large mailboxes can be very CPU and + memory hungry. + * The Squat indexes are stored among Dovecot's other index files.

For example given a word "world" it indexes "worl", "orld", "rld", +"ld" and "d". Matching message UIDs are stored to each trie node, so Squat +supports giving definitive answers to any searches with a length of 1..4 +characters. For longer search words the word is looked up in 4 letter pieces +and the results are merged. The resulting list is a list of messages where the +word *may* exist. This means that those messages are still opened and the word +is searched from them the slow way. + +Squat also supports indexing more characters from the beginning of words. For +example if 5 first characters are indexed, the word "character" would be cut to +"chara". If a user then searches for "chara", Dovecot does: + + 1. Search for messages having "char" (reply example: 1,5,10) + 2. Search for messages having "hara" (reply example: 3,5,10) + 3. Store the intersection of the above searches to "maybe UIDs" (example: + 5,10) + 4. Search for full word "chara" and store it as "definite UIDs" (reply + example: 5) + 5. Remove definite UIDs (5) from maybe UIDs (5,10 -> 10) + +In the above example Dovecot would know that message UID 5 has the word +"chara", but it still has to check if UID 10 has it as a substring (e.g. in +word "achara") by reading the message contents. If the user's search words +match mostly non-substrings (which is common), using long enough full word +indexing can improve the search performance a lot, especially when the word +matches a lot of messages. + +The Squat name comes from Cyrus IMAP [http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/] which +implements slightly similar Squat indexes ("Search QUery Answer Tool"). +Dovecot's implementation and file format however is completely different. The +main visible difference is that Dovecot allows updating the index incrementally +instead of requiring to re-read the entire mailbox to build it. Cyrus Squat +also doesn't support 1..3 characters long searches. + +Configuration +------------- + +'fts_squat' setting can be used to change Squat options: + + * partial=n: Length of the substring blocks to index.

You probably also want to hide it with an ACL. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_plugins = $mail_plugins lazy_expunge acl +plugin { + lazy_expunge = .EXPUNGED + acl = vfile:/etc/dovecot/dovecot.acl + + # Expunged messages most likely don't want to be included in quota: + quota_rule2 = .EXPUNGED:ignore +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Where '/etc/dovecot/dovecot.acl' contains: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +.EXPUNGED owner rwstipekxa +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +You could also leave the permissions empty if you don't want to allow clients +to access it at all. + +1 namespace +----------- + +You create only a single namespace. When a message is expunged from mailbox +/<name>/, it's moved to a mailbox /<name>/ in the expunge namespace. When an +entire mailbox /<name>/ is deleted, it's also moved to this namespace as +/<name>/. If it already exists, their contents are merged. + +Example configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# the default namespace +namespace { + prefix = + separator = / + inbox = yes +} + +# namespace for lazy_expunge plugin: +namespace { + prefix = .EXPUNGED/ + hidden = yes + list = no + separator = / + location = maildir:~/Maildir/expunged +} + +mail_plugins = $mail_plugins lazy_expunge +plugin { + lazy_expunge = .EXPUNGED/ +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +3 namespaces (obsolete, v2.0 only) +---------------------------------- + +The namespaces are: + + 1. Expunged messages namespace. Whenever a message is expunged in mailbox + /<name>/, it's moved to a mailbox /<name>/ in this namespace. The mailboxes + are created automatically as needed. + 2. Deleted mailboxes namespace. Whenever a mailbox /<name>/ is deleted, it's + moved here with name /<name>-YYYMMDD-hhmmss/. The timestamp is there so + that the mailbox can be deleted multiple times. If the mailbox is deleted + multiple times within a second, random 16bit hex value is appended to it. + 3. Expunged messages in a deleted mailbox namespace. When a mailbox is deleted + and it has messages in its expunged namespace, the mailbox is moved from + the expunged namespace to this namespace. The destination mailbox name is + the same as in the 2nd namespace (ie. contains the same timestamp). + +Example configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# the default namespace +namespace { + prefix = + separator = / + inbox = yes +} + +# namespaces for lazy_expunge plugin: +namespace { + prefix = .EXPUNGED/ + separator = / + location = maildir:~/Maildir/expunged +} +namespace { + prefix = .DELETED/ + separator = / + location = maildir:~/Maildir/deleted +} +namespace { + prefix = .DELETED/.EXPUNGED/ + separator = / + location = maildir:~/Maildir/deleted/expunged +} + +mail_plugins = $mail_plugins lazy_expunge +plugin { + lazy_expunge = .EXPUNGED/ .DELETED/ .DELETED/.EXPUNGED/ +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Multi-dbox +---------- + +With multi-dbox use different MAILBOXDIRs (so copying between namespaces works +quickly within the same storage), but otherwise exactly the same paths (index, +control): + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# the default namespace +namespace { + prefix = + inbox = yes + location = mdbox:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/index/%d/%n +} + +# lazy_expunge namespace(s): +namespace { + prefix = .EXPUNGED/ + hidden = yes + list = no + subscriptions = no + + location = mdbox:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/index/%d/%n:MAILBOXDIR=expunged + # If mailbox_list_index=yes is enabled, it needs a separate index file +(v2.2.28+): + #location = +mdbox:~/mdbox:INDEX=/var/index/%d/%n:MAILBOXDIR=expunged:LISTINDEX=expunged.list.index +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Copy only the last instance (v2.2+) +----------------------------------- + +If mail has multiple copies (via IMAP COPY), each copy is normally moved to +lazy expunge namespace when it's expunged.

Messages are encrypted before written to storage and decrypted after +reading. Both operations are transparent to the user. + +In case of unauthorized access to the storage backend, the messages will, +without access to the decryption keys, be unreadable to the offending party. + +There can be a single encryption key for the whole system or each user can have +a key of their own. The used cryptographical methods are widely usedstandards +and keys are stored in portable formats, when possible. + +Functional Overview +------------------- + +The use of Mail crypt plugin depends on a user having a keypair, a private and +a public key, for asymmetric cryptography. These keys are provisioned in a +variable via the user database or directly from Dovecot configuration files. + +The public half of the provisioned keypairs are used to generate and encrypt +keys for symmetric encryption. The symmetric keys are used to encrypt and +decrypt individual files. Symmetric encryption is faster and more suitable for +block mode storage encryption. The symmetric key used to encrypt a file is +stored, after being encrypted with the public asymmetric key, together with the +file. + +Encryption Technologies +----------------------- + +The Mail crypt plugin provides encryption at rest for emails. Encryption of the +messages is performed using the symmetric Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) +algorithm in Galois/Counter Mode (GCM) with 256 bit keys. Integrity of the data +is ensured using Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data (AEAD) with +SHA256 hashing. The encryption keys for the symmetric encryption are randomly +generated. These keys in turn are encrypted using a key derived with from the +provisioned private key. Provisioned private keys can be Elliptic Curve (EC) +keys or RSA Encryption is done using the Integrated Encryption Scheme (IES). +This algorithm is usable both with EC and RSA keys. + +Technical Requirements +---------------------- + +This feature is available in v2.2.27+. Using per-folder keys is not considered +production quality, but global keys are fine. + +*NB! Improper configuration or use can make your emails unrecoverable. Treat +encryption with care and backups.* + +mail-crypt-plugin encrypts and decrypts mail. The plugin has an older version, +and the extent of this version's backward compatibility is controlled by the +setting *mail_crypt_save_version*. The setting has three valid values, of which +one must be set for the plugin to do anything. The values are 0 and 2. With +*mail_crypt_save_version = 2*, mails are saved in dcrypt version 2 format, and +this is the value that should be used. With *mail_crypt_save_version = 0*, the +plugin does not write encrypted mails, but can still read them. To provide +*mail_crypt_global_private_key* and *mail_crypt_global_public_key* as userdb +attributes, you can base64 encode the original contents, such as PEM file. For +example, + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +cat ecprivkey.pem | base64 -w0 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Settings for mail crypt plugin +------------------------------ + +These all go into userdb environment or under plugin { } + + * *mail_crypt_save_version* - Save format, 0 = read only, 2 = current version + * *mail_crypt_curve* - EC curve to use for key generation + * *mail_crypt_global_private_key(_n)* - Private key to decrypt files, you can + specify many + * *mail_crypt_global_public_key* - Public key to use to encrypt files, you can + specify one + * *mail_crypt_private_key* - Private key to decrypt user's master key, can be + base64 encoded + * *mail_crypt_private_password* - Password to decrypt user's master key or + environment private key + * *mail_crypt_acl_require_secure_key_sharing* - Require secure key sharing + * *mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key* - Require user key encryption with + password + +All external keys must be in PEM format, using pkey format. + +Modes of operation +------------------ + +Mail crypt plugin can operate using *either* global keys *or* folder keys. +Using both is not supported. To perform any +encryption,*mail_crypt_save_version* must be specified and non-zero. + +Folder keys +----------- + +In this mode, the user is generated a key pair, and each folder is generated a +key pair, which is encrypted using the user's key pair. A user can have more +than one key pair but only one can be active. You must use save version 2. You +must also specify *mail_crypt_curve*. Any valid curve supported by underlying +cryptographic library is supported.*mail_attribute_dict* has to be set since it +is used to store the keys. + +Unencrypted user keys +--------------------- + +In this version of the folder keys mode, the users private key is stored +unencrypted on the server. + +Example config for folder keys with Maildir: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/Maildir/dovecot-attributes + +mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt + +plugin { + mail_crypt_curve = secp521r1 + mail_crypt_save_version = 2 +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Encrypted user keys +------------------- + +In this version of the folder keys mode, the users private key is stored +encrypted on the server. + +Example config for mandatory encrypted folder keys with Maildir: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_attribute_dict = file:%h/Maildir/dovecot-attributes + +mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt + +plugin { + mail_crypt_curve = secp521r1 + mail_crypt_save_version = 2 + mail_crypt_require_encrypted_user_key = yes +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The password that is used to decrypt the users master/private key, must be +provided via password query: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# File: /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext + +password_query = SELECT \ +email as user, password, \ +'%w' AS userdb_mail_crypt_private_password \ +FROM virtual_users WHERE email='%u'; +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Global keys +----------- + +In this mode, all keying material is taken from plugin environment.

If you've enabled both gzip and bzip2 support you can have +files compressed with either one of them in the Maildir. The compression is +detected by reading the first few bytes from the file and figuring out if it's +a valid gzip or bzip2 header. The file name doesn't matter. This means that an +IMAP client could also try to exploit security holes in zlib/bzlib by writing +specially crafted mails using IMAP's APPEND command. This is prevented by +Dovecot not allowing clients to save mails that are detected as compressed. + +All mails must have ',S=<size>' in their filename where <size> contains the +original uncompressed mail size, otherwise there will be problems with quota +calculation as well as other potential random failures. Note that if the +filename doesn't contain the ',S=<size>' before compression, adding it +afterwards changes the base filename and thus the message UID. The safest thing +to do is simply to not compress such files. + +You should also preserve the file's mtime so INTERNALDATE doesn't change. + +If you want to use dsync to convert to a compressed Maildir you may need -o +maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=no (this is set to yes by default and will prevent +compression). + +Compression +----------- + +You'll probably want to use some cronjob to compress old mails. However note +that to avoid seeing duplicate mails in rare race conditions you'll have to use +the included maildirlock utility. The idea is to: + + 1. Find the mails you want to compress in a single maildir. + * Skip files that don't have ',S=<size>' in the filename. + 2. Compress the mails to 'tmp/' + * Update the compressed files' mtimes to be the same as they were in the + original files (e.g. touch command) + 3. Run 'maildirlock <path> <timeout>'. It writes PID to stdout, save it. + * <path> is path to the directory containing Maildir's dovecot-uidlist + (the control directory, if it's separate) + * <timeout> specifies how long to wait for the lock before failing. + 4. If maildirlock grabbed the lock successfully (exit code 0) you can + continue. + 5. For each mail you compressed: + 1. Verify that it still exists where you last saw it. + 2. If it doesn't exist, delete the compressed file. Its flags may have + been changed or it may have been expunged. This happens rarely, so just + let the next run handle it. + 3. If the file does exist, 'rename()' (mv) the compressed file over the + original file. + * Dovecot can now read the file, but to avoid compressing it again on + the next run, you'll probably want to rename it again to include + e.g. a "Z" flag in the file name to mark that it was compressed + (e.g.'1223212411.M907959P17184.host,S=3271:2,SZ'). Remember that the + Maildir specifications [http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html] require + that the flags are sorted by their ASCII value, although Dovecot + itself doesn't care about that. + 6.

Quota root is a concept +from IMAP Quota specifications [http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2087.txt]. +Normally you'll have only one quota root, but in theory there could be e.g. +"user quota" and "domain quota" roots. It's unspecified how the quota roots +interact with each others (if at all). In some systems for example INBOX could +have a completely different quota root from the rest of the mailboxes (e.g. +INBOX in '/var/mail/' partition and others in '/home/' partition). + +Quota root configuration includes the backend name, quota root name and its +parameters, if there are any: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +quota = <backend>[:<quota root name>[:<backend args>]] +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The quota root name is just an arbitrary string that is sent to IMAP clients, +which in turn may show it to the user. The name has no meaning. By default an +empty string is used, but you may want to change that since some clients (Apple +Mail) break and don't show quota at all then. + +You can define multiple quota roots by appending an increasing number, for +example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota = maildir:User quota + quota2 = fs:Disk quota + #quota3 = ... +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Quota rules +----------- + +Quota rules configure the actual quota limits. The syntax is: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +quota_rule = <mailbox name>:<limit configuration> +#quota_rule2 = ... +#quota_rule3 = ..etc.. +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +"*" as the mailbox name configures the default limit, which is applied on top +of a mailbox-specific limit if found. So for example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +quota_rule = *:storage=1G +quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+100M +quota_rule3 = SPAM:ignore +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This means that the user has 1GB quota, but when saving messages to Trash +mailbox it's possible to use up to 1.1GB of quota. The quota isn't specifically +assigned to Trash, so if you had 1GB of mails in Trash you could still save +100MB of mails to Trash, but nothing to other mailboxes. The idea of this is +mostly to allow the clients' move-to-Trash feature work while user is deleting +messages to get under quota. Additionally, any messages in the SPAM folder are +ignored per the 'ignore' directive and would not count against the quota. + +"?" as the mailbox name works almost like "*". The difference is that "?" is +used only if quota backend doesn't override the limit. For example with +Maildir++ [http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/README.maildirquota.html] quota if +'maildirsize' file exists the limits are taken from it, but if it doesn't exist +the "?" limits are used. + +"*" can't be used as a generic wildcard in mailbox names, so for example "box*" +wouldn't match "boxes". As shown in the above example, the first quota rule is +named 'quota_rule' while the following rules have an increasing digit in them. +You can have as many quota rules as you want. + +Limit configuration +------------------- + +The following limit names are supported: + + * *storage*: Quota limit in kilobytes, 0 means unlimited. + * *bytes*: Quota limit in bytes, 0 means unlimited. + * *messages*: Quota limit in number of messages, 0 means unlimited. This + probably isn't very useful. + * *backend*: Quota backend-specific limit configuration. + * *ignore*: Don't include the specified mailbox in quota at all. + +All of these support also b/k/M/G/T/% suffixes. So storage=100M and bytes=100M +both mean the exact same thing. messages=1k also means 1024 messages (not +1000). + +Percents are relative to the default rule. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota = maildir:User quota + quota_rule = *:storage=1GB + # 10% of 1GB = 100MB + quota_rule2 = Trash:storage=+10%% + # 20% of 1GB = 200MB + quota_rule3 = Spam:storage=+20%% +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Note that % is written twice to escape it, because <%variables> [Variables.txt] +are expanded in plugin section. <userdb> [UserDatabase.txt] configuration may +or may not require this escaping. + +Backend-specific configuration currently is used only with Maildir++ quota +backend. It means you can have the quota in Maildir++ format (e.g. +"10000000S"). + +Per-user quota +-------------- + +You can override quota rules in your <userdb> [UserDatabase.txt]'s <extra +fields> [UserDatabase.ExtraFields.txt]. Keep all the global settings in plugin +section and override only those settings you need to in your userdb. + +If you're wondering why per-user quota isn't working: + + * Check that 'dovecot-lda' is called with *-d* parameter. + * Check that you're not using <userdb static> [UserDatabase.Static.txt]. + * Check that 'quota_rule' setting is properly returned by userdb.

One +possibility would be to write a script that reads quota limits from another +file, merges them with passwd file and produces another passwd-file, which you +could then use with Dovecot's <userdb passwd-file> +[AuthDatabase.PasswdFile.txt]. + +Quota for public namespaces +--------------------------- + +You can create a separate namespace-specific quota that's shared between all +users. This is done simply by adding ':ns=<namespace prefix>' parameter to +quota setting. For example you could have something like: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = public + prefix = Public/ + #location = .. +} + +plugin { + quota = maildir:User quota + quota2 = maildir:Shared quota:ns=Public/ + #quota_rules and quota2_rules.. +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Quota for private namespaces +---------------------------- + +You can create a separate namespace-specific quota for a folder hierarchy. This +is done by adding another namespace and the ':ns=<namespace prefix>' parameter +to quota setting. For example you could have something like: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = private + prefix = Archive/ + #location = .. +} + +plugin { + # Maildir quota + quota = maildir:User quota:ns= + quota2 = maildir:Archive quota:ns=Archive/ + + # Dict quota + #quota = dict:User quota:%u.default:ns=:proxy::quota + #quota2 = dict:Archive quota:%u.archive:ns=Archive/:proxy::quota + + #quota_rules and quota2_rules.. +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Note: If you're using dict quota, you need to make sure that the quota of the +'Archive' namespace is calculated for another "user" than the default +namespace. Either track different namespaces in different backends or make sure +the users differs.'%u.archive' defines '<username>.archive' as key to track +quota for the 'Archive' namespace, the '%u.default' tracks the quota of other +folders. See <Variables.txt> for further help on variables. + +Custom Quota Exceeded Message +----------------------------- + +You can configure Dovecot to send a custom string instead of the default quota +exceeded message. You could have something like: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota_exceeded_message = Quota exceeded, please go to +http://www.example.com/over_quota_help for instructions on how to fix this. +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Dovecot can also read the quota exceeded message from a file: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota_exceeded_message = </path/to/quota_exceeded_message.txt +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Quota warnings +-------------- + +You can configure Dovecot to run an external command when user's quota exceeds +a specified limit. Note that the warning is ONLY executed at the exact time +when the limit is being crossed, so when you're testing it you have to do it by +crossing the limit by saving a new mail. If something else besides Dovecot +updates quota so that the limit is crossed, the warning is never executed. The +syntax is: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +quota_warning = <limit configuration> <quota-warning socket name> <parameters> +#quota_warning2 = ... +#quota_warning3 = ..etc.. +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Limit configuration is almost exactly same as for rules, with the exception of +adding "-" before the value for "reverse" warnings where the script is called +when quota drops below the value. Usually you want to use percents instead of +absolute limits. Only the command for the first exceeded limit is executed, so +configure the highest limit first. The actual commands that are run need to be +created as services. + +An example configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota_warning = storage=95%% quota-warning 95 %u + quota_warning2 = storage=80%% quota-warning 80 %u + quota_warning3 = -storage=100%% quota-warning below %u # user is no longer +over quota +} + +service quota-warning { + executable = script /usr/local/bin/quota-warning.sh + # use some unprivileged user for executing the quota warnings + user = vmail + unix_listener quota-warning { + } +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +With the above example when user's quota exceeds 80%, 'quota-warning.sh' is +executed with parameter 80. The same goes for when quota exceeds 95%. If user +suddenly receives a huge mail and the quota jumps from 70% to 99%, only the 95 +script is executed. + +You have to create the 'quota-warning.sh' script yourself. Here is an example +that sends a mail to the user: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +#!/bin/sh +PERCENT=$1 +USER=$2 +cat << EOF | /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -d $USER -o +"plugin/quota=maildir:User quota:noenforcing" +From: postmaster@domain.com +Subject: quota warning + +Your mailbox is now $PERCENT% full. +EOF +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The quota enforcing is disabled to avoid looping. You'll of course need to +change the 'plugin/quota' value to match the quota backend and other +configuration you use. Basically preserve your original "quota" setting and +just insert ":noenforcing" to proper location in it. For example with dict +quota, you can use something like:'-o "plugin/quota=dict:User +quota::noenforcing:proxy::quota"' + +Overquota-flag (v2.2.16+) +------------------------- + +Quota warnings scripts can be used to set an overquota-flag to userdb (e.g. +LDAP) when user goes over/under quota. This flag can be used by MTA to reject +mails to an user who is over quota already at SMTP RCPT TO stage. The only +problem with this has been that there are race conditions that in some rare +situations cause the overquota-flag to be set even when user is already under +quota. This situation doesn't get solved itself without manual admin +intervention or the new overquota-flag feature: This feature checks the flag's +value every time user logs in (or mail gets delivered or any other email access +to user) and compares it to the current actual quota usage. If the flag is +wrong, a script is executed that should fix up the situation. + +The overquota-flag name in userdb must be "quota_over_flag". There are two +settings to configure what to do: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + # If quota_over_flag=TRUE, the overquota-flag is enabled. Otherwise not. + quota_over_flag_value = TRUE + + # Any non-empty value for quota_over_flag means user is over quota. + # Wildcards can be used in a generic way, e.g. "*yes" or "*TRUE*" + #quota_over_flag_value = * + + # If set, overquota-flag is checked only when current quota usage is going to +be checked anyway. + # This can be used to optimize this check in case it's running too slowly. +(v2.2.25+) + #quota_over_flag_lazy_check = yes + + # Service script to execute if overquota-flag is wrong. Configured the + # same as quota_warning scripts. The current quota_over_flag's value is + # appended as the last parameter. + quota_over_script = quota-warning mismatch %u +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Quota grace +----------- + +With v2.2+ by default the last mail can bring user over quota. This is useful +to allow user to actually unambiguously become over quota instead of fail some +of the last larger mails and pass through some smaller mails. Of course the +last mail shouldn't be allowed to bring the user hugely over quota, so by +default in v2.2+ this limit is 10% of the user's quota limit. (In v2.1 this is +disabled by default.) + +To change the quota grace, use: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + # allow user to become max 10% over quota + quota_grace = 10%% + # allow user to become max 50 MB over quota + quota_grace = 50 M +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Maximum saved mail size +----------------------- + +(v2.2.29+) Dovecot allows specifying the maximum message size that is allowed +to be saved (e.g. by LMTP, IMAP APPEND or doveadm save). The default is 0, +which is unlimited. Since outgoing mail sizes are also typically limited on the +MTA size, it can be beneficial to prevent user from saving too large mails, +which would later on fail on the MTA side anyway. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + quota_max_mail_size = 100M +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Quota admin commands +-------------------- + +The imap_quota plugin implements the SETQUOTA command, which allows changing +the logged in user's quota limit if the user is admin.

Some clients do this, while others + have to be manually configured to accept the certificate. + +The only way to be fully secure is to import the SSL certificate to client's +(or operating system's) list of trusted CA certificates prior to first +connection. See <SSL.CertificateClientImporting.txt> how to do it for different +clients. + +Self-signed certificate creation +-------------------------------- + +Dovecot includes a script to build self-signed SSL certificates using OpenSSL. +In the source distribution this exists in doc/mkcert.sh +[http://dovecot.org/doc/mkcert.sh]. Binary installations usually create the +certificate automatically when installing Dovecot and don't include the script. + +The SSL certificate's configuration is taken from doc/dovecot-openssl.cnf +[http://dovecot.org/doc/dovecot-openssl.cnf] file. Modify the file before +running mkcert.sh. Especially important field is the CN (Common Name) field, +which should contain your server's host name. The clients will verify that the +CN matches the connected host name, otherwise they'll say the certificate is +invalid. It's also possible to use wildcards (eg. *.domain.com) in the host +name. They should work with most clients. + +By default the certificate is created to '/etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem' and the +private key file is created to '/etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem'. Also by default +the certificate will expire in 365 days. If you wish to change any of these, +modify the mkcert.sh script. + +Certificate Authorities +----------------------- + +The correct way to use SSL is to have each SSL certificate signed by an +Certificate Authority (CA). The client has a list of trusted Certificate +Authorities, so whenever it sees a new SSL certificate signed by a trusted CA, +it will automatically trust the new certificate without asking the user any +questions. + +There are two ways to get a CA signed certificate: get it from an external CA, +or create your own CA. + +The clients have a built-in list of trusted CAs, so getting it from one of +those CAs will have the advantage of the certificate working without any client +configuration. There are already-trusted-CAs where you can buy the certificate, +and there are already-trusted-CAs where you can get your certificate for free. +On the oher hand, if you create your own CA, you'll have to install the CA +certificate to all the clients (see <SSL.CertificateClientImporting.txt>). + +So the two options end up being three: + + * a) Get it from an external CA (which already have the public keys installed + on the clients, so the clients trust the CA) + * a.1) Purchase the certificate. + * a.2) Get a free certificate. + * b) Create your own CA (in this case you'll have to add the CA public keys + into the clients, as you are bot trusted by default) + +If you choose "a.2)", there is letsencrypt.org [https://letsencrypt.org/] where +you need to do some technical effort to demonstrate to a robot that you own the +domains for which the certificate is issued.

The client is allowed to login with + plaintext authentication even when SSL/TLS isn't enabled on the connection. + This is insecure, because the plaintext password is exposed to the internet. + * 'ssl=yes' and 'disable_plaintext_auth=yes': SSL/TLS is offered to the + client, but the client isn't required to use it. The client isn't allowed to + use plaintext authentication, unless SSL/TLS is enabled first. However, if + <non-plaintext authentication mechanisms> [Authentication.Mechanisms.txt] + are enabled they are still allowed even without SSL/TLS. Depending on how + secure they are, the authentication is either fully secure or it could have + some ways for it to be attacked. + * 'ssl=required': SSL/TLS is always required, even if non-plaintext + authentication mechanisms are used. Any attempt to authenticate before + SSL/TLS is enabled will cause an authentication failure. + * NOTE: If you have only plaintext mechanisms enabled (e.g. 'auth { mechanisms + = plain login }'), 'ssl=yes' and 'ssl=required' are completely equivalent + because in either case the authentication will fail unless SSL/TLS is + enabled first. + * NOTE2: With both 'ssl=yes' and 'ssl=required' it's still possible that the + client attempts to do a plaintext authentication before enabling SSL/TLS, + which exposes the plaintext password to the internet. Dovecot attempts to + indicate this to the IMAP clients via the LOGINDISABLED capability, but many + clients still ignore it and send the password anyway. There is unfortunately + no way for Dovecot to prevent this behavior. The POP3 standard doesn't have + an equivalent capability at all, so the POP3 clients can't even know if the + server would accept a plaintext authentication. + * The main difference between 'ssl=required' and 'disable_plaintext_auth=yes' + is that if 'ssl=required', it guarantees that the entire connection is + protected against eavesdropping (SSL/TLS encrypts the rest of the + connection), while 'disable_plaintext_auth=yes' only guarantees that the + password is protected against eavesdropping (SASL mechanism is encrypted, + but no SSL/TLS is necessarily used). Nowadays you most likely should be + using SSL/TLS anyway for the entire connection, since the cost of SSL/TLS is + cheap enough. Using both SSL/TLS and non-plaintext authentication would be + the ideal situation since it protects the plaintext password even against + man-in-the-middle attacks. + +Note that plaintext authentication is always allowed (and SSL not required) for +connections from localhost, as they're assumed to be secure anyway.

Instead + you could store it in a different file, such as '/etc/dovecot-private.conf' + containing: + + ---%<--------------------------------------------------------------------- + ssl_key_password = secret + ---%<--------------------------------------------------------------------- + + and then use '!include_try /etc/dovecot-private.conf' in the main + 'dovecot.conf'. + +Chained SSL certificates +------------------------ + +Put all the certificates in the 'ssl_cert' file. For example when using a +certificate signed by TDC the correct order is: + + 1. Dovecot's public certificate + 2. TDC SSL Server CA + 3. TDC Internet Root CA + 4. Globalsign Partners CA + +SSL security settings +--------------------- + +When Dovecot starts up for the first time, it generates new 512bit and 1024bit +Diffie Hellman parameters and saves them into +'<prefix>/var/lib/dovecot/ssl-parameters.dat'. Dovecot v2.1.x and older +regenerated them every week by default, but because the extra security gained +by the regeneration is quite small, Dovecot v2.2 disabled the regeneration +feature completely. + + * Since v2.3.3+ Diffie-Hellman parameters have been made optional, and you are + encouraged to disable non-ECC DH algorithms completely. + +From and up to version 2.2, you can specify the wanted DH parameters length +using: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +ssl_dh_parameters_length = 2048 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +From version 2.3, you must specify path to DH parameters file using: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +ssl_dh=</path/to/dh.pem +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +To generate new parameters file, you can use: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +# This might take a very long time.

If not, generate new file. + +By default Dovecot's allowed ciphers list contains: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +ssl_cipher_list = +ALL:!kRSA:!SRP:!kDHd:!DSS:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DES:!3DES:!MD5:!PSK:!RC4:!ADH:!LOW@STRENGTH +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Disallowing more won't really gain any security for those using better ciphers, +but it does prevent people from accidentally using insecure ciphers. See +http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html for a list of the ciphers. + +You should usually prefer server ciphers and their order, so setting + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +ssl_prefer_server_ciphers=yes +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +is recommended. + +SSL verbosity +------------- + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +verbose_ssl = yes +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This will make Dovecot log all the problems it sees with SSL connections. Some +errors might be caused by dropped connections, so it could be quite noisy. + +Client certificate verification/authentication +---------------------------------------------- + +If you want to require clients to present a valid SSL certificate, you'll need +these settings: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +ssl_ca = </etc/ssl/ca.pem +ssl_verify_client_cert = yes + +auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes +#auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The CA file should contain the certificate(s) followed by the matching CRL(s). +Note that the CRLs are required to exist. For a multi-level CA place the +certificates in this order: + + 1. Issuing CA cert + 2. Issuing CA CRL + 3. Intermediate CA cert + 4. Intermediate CA CRL + 5. Root CA cert + 6. Root CA CRL + +The certificates and the CRLs have to be in PEM format. To convert a DER format +CRL (e.g.http://crl.cacert.org/class3-revoke.crl) into PEM format, use: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +openssl crl -in class3-revoke.crl -inform DER -outform PEM > class3-revoke.pem +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +With the above settings if a client connects which doesn't present a +certificate signed by one of the CAs in the 'ssl_ca' file, Dovecot won't let +the user log in. This could present a problem if you're using Dovecot to +provide SASL authentication for an MTA (such as Postfix) which is not capable +of supplying client certificates for SASL authentication. If you need Dovecot +to provide SASL authentication to an MTA without requiring client certificates +and simultaneously provide IMAP service to clients while requiring client +certificates, you can put 'auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes' inside of a +protocol block as shown below to make an exemption for SMTP SASL clients (such +as Postfix). + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +protocol !smtp { + auth_ssl_require_client_cert = yes +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +You may also force the username to be taken from the certificate by setting +'auth_ssl_username_from_cert = yes'. + + * The text is looked up from subject DN's specified field using OpenSSL's + 'X509_NAME_get_text_by_NID()' function. + * By default the 'CommonName' field is used. + * You can change the field with 'ssl_cert_username_field = name' setting + (parsed using OpenSSL's 'OBJ_txt2nid()' function). 'x500UniqueIdentifier' is + a common choice. + +You may also want to disable the password checking completely.

SSLv3 is + still allowed by Dovecot, but it's rarely used. Some clients use SSL to mean + that they're going to connect to the imaps (993), pop3s (995) or smtps (465) + port, although they're still going to use TLSv1 protocol. + * TLS (Transport Layer Security) replaced the SSL protocol. TLSv1 protocol is + used practically always nowadays. Some clients use TLS to mean that they're + going to use STARTTLS command after connecting to the standard imap (143), + pop3 (110) or smtp port (25/587). Nothing would prevent using SSLv3 protocol + after STARTTLS command. + +Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any clear and simple way to refer to +these different meanings. SSL term is much more widely understood than TLS, so +Dovecot configuration and this documentation only talks about SSL when in fact +it means both SSL/TLS. + +Originally SSL support was added to protocols by giving them a separate "SSL +port" (imaps, pop3s, etc.), where the SSL handshake starts immediately when +client connects, and only after the session is encrypted the regular protocol +handling begins. Using two separate ports for plaintext and SSL connections was +thought to be wasteful and adds complexity for clients which may wish to make +use of SSL when it is advertised, so STARTTLS command was added and intended to +deprecate the SSL ports. Clients using STARTTLS work by connecting to the +regular unencrypted port and immediately issue a STARTTLS command, after which +the session is encrypted. After SSL handshake there is no difference between +SSL port initiated connections and STARTTLS initiated connections. + +SSL port deprecation never really happened, probably because of a few reasons: + + * Some admins don't even know about STARTTLS. + * Some admins want to require SSL/TLS, but don't realize that this is also + possible with STARTTLS (Dovecot has 'disable_plaintext_auth=yes' and + 'ssl=required' settings). + * Some admins understand everything, but still prefer to allow only SSL ports + (maybe with a firewall). This could be because it makes it easier to ensure + that no information is leaked, because SSL/TLS handshake happens + immediately. Some clients unfortunately try to do plaintext authentication + without STARTTLS, even when IMAP server has told the client that it won't + work. Besides, it requires fewer round-trips if you begin SSL upon + connection when you know you want it, instead of connect, negotiate + capabilities, insist on TLS, then start all over again inside the encrypted + session. + * According to some reports (like this + [https://it.slashdot.org/story/14/11/11/2349244/isps-removing-their-customers-email-encryption]) + STARTTLS can not guarantee encrypted delivery of mail. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Sasl.txt b/doc/wiki/Sasl.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..940f187 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Sasl.txt @@ -0,0 +1,27 @@ +SASL +==== + +SASL stands for "Simple Authentication and Security Layer".

If set to 0,*default_client_limit* is used + instead. + +service_count: + Number of client connections to handle until the process kills itself. 0 + means unlimited. 1 means only a single connection is handled until the + process is stopped - this is the most secure choice since there's no way for + one connection's state to leak to the next one. For better performance this + can be set higher, but ideally not unlimited since more complex services can + have small memory leaks and/or memory fragmentation and the process should + get restarted eventually. For example 100..1000 can be good values. + +process_limit: + Maximum number of processes that can exist for this service. If set to 0, + *default_process_limit* is used instead. + +process_min_avail: + Minimum number of processes that always should be available to accept more + client connections. For service_count=1 processes this decreases the latency + for handling new connections. For service_count!=1 processes it could be set + to the number of CPU cores on the system to balance the load among them. + +vsz_limit: + Limit the process's address space (both RLIMIT_DATA and RLIMIT_AS if + available). When the space is reached, some memory allocations may start + failing with "Out of memory", or the kernel may kill the process with signal + 9. This setting is mainly intended to prevent memory leaks from eating up all + of the memory, but there can be also legitimate reasons why the process + reaches this limit. For example a huge mailbox may not be accessed if this + limit is too low. The default value (18446744073709551615 = 2^64-1) sets the + limit to *default_vsz_limit*, while 0 disables the limit entirely. + +There are 3 types of services that need to be optimized in different ways: + + 1. Master services (e.g. auth, anvil, indexer, director, log): + * Currently there isn't any easy way to optimize these. If these become a + bottleneck, typically you need to run another Dovecot server. In some + cases it may be possible to create multiple master processes and have + each one be responsible for only specific users/processes, although this + may also require some extra development. + 2. Services that do disk I/O or other blocking operations (e.g. imap, pop3, + lmtp): + * These should have *client_limit=1*, because any blocking operation will + block all the other clients and cause unnecessary delays and even + timeouts. + * This means that *process_limit* specifies the maximum number of + available parallel connections. + 3. Services that have no blocking operations (e.g. imap-login, pop3-login): + * For best performance (but a bit less safety), these should have + *process_limit* and *process_min_avail* set to the number of CPU cores, + so each CPU will be busy serving the process but without unnecessary + context switches. + * Then *client_limit* needs to be set high enough to be able to serve all + the needed connections (max connections =*process_limit* * + *client_limit*). + * *service_count* is commonly set to unlimited (0) for these services. + Otherwise when the *service_count* is beginning to be reached, the total + number of available connections will shrink. With very bad luck that + could mean that all the processes are simply waiting for the existing + connections to die away before the process can die and a new one can be + created. Although this could be made less likely by setting + *process_limit* higher than *process_min_avail*, but that's still not a + guarantee since each process could get a very long running connection + and the *process_limit* would be eventually reached. + +Service listeners +----------------- + +unix_listeners and fifo_listeners +--------------------------------- + +path: + Path to the file, relative to *base_dir* setting. This is also used as the + section name. + +user: + Owner of the file. Defaults to 0 (root). + +group: + Group of the file. Defaults to 0 (root/wheel). + +mode: + Mode of the file. Defaults to 0700. Note that 0700 is an octal value, while + 700 is a different decimal value. Setting mode to 0 disables the listener. + +inet_listeners +-------------- + +name: + Section name of this listener. It is meant to be descriptive for humans (e.g. + "imap", "imaps"). + +address: + Space separated list of IP addresses / host names to listen on. "*" means all + IPv4 addresses, "::" means all IPv6 addresses. Defaults to *listen* setting. + +port: + Port number where to listen. 0 disables the listener. + +ssl: + If yes, the listener does an immediate SSL/TLS handshake after accepting a + connection. This is needed for the legacy imaps and pop3s ports. + + All listeners with ssl=yes will be removed if global ssl is turned off + +haproxy (v2.2.19+): + If yes, this listener is configured for use with <HAProxy.txt>. It expects a + Proxy Protocol [http://blog.haproxy.com/haproxy/proxy-protocol/] header right + after accepting the connection. Connections are aborted immediately when this + protocol is violated. + +Default services +================ + +anvil +----- + +The anvil process tracks state of users and their connections. + + * *chroot=empty* and *user=$default_internal_user*, because anvil doesn't need + access to anything. + * *process_limit=1*, because there can be only one. + * *idle_kill=4294967295s*, because it should never die or all of its tracked + state would be lost. + * "doveadm who" and some other doveadm commands connect to anvil's UNIX + listener and request its state. + +auth +---- + +The master auth process. There are 4 types of auth client connections: + + 1. client: Only SASL authentication is allowed. This can be safely exposed to + entire world. + 2. userdb: userdb lookups and passdb lookups (without the password itself) can + be done for any user, and a list of users can be requested. This may or may + not be a security issue. Access to userdb lookup is commonly needed by + dovecot-lda, doveadm and other tools. + 3. login: Starts a two phase user login by performing authenticating (same as + "client" type). Used by login processes. + 4. master: Finishes the two phase user login by performing a userdb lookup + (similar to "userdb" type). Used by post-login processes (e.g. imap, pop3). + +With UNIX listeners the client type is selected based on the filename after the +last "-" in the filename. For example "anything-userdb" is of "userdb" type. +The default type is "client" for inet insteners and unrecognized UNIX +listeners. You can add as many client and userdb listeners as you want (and you +probably shouldn't touch the login/master listeners). + + * *client_limit* should be large enough to handle all the simultaneous + connections. Typically only login processes use long lasting auth + connections, while other processes do only quick lookups and disconnect + afterwards. + * *process_limit=1*, because there can be only one auth master process. + * *user=$default_internal_user*, because it typically doesn't need permissions + to do anything (PAM lookups are done by auth-workers). + * *chroot* could be set (to e.g. "empty") if passdb/userdb doesn't need to + read any files (e.g. SQL, LDAP config is read before chroot) + +auth-worker +----------- + +Auth master process connects to auth worker processes. It is mainly used by +passdbs and userdbs that do potentially long running lookups. For example MySQL +supports only synchronous lookups, so each query is run in a separate auth +worker process that does nothing else during the query. PostgreSQL and LDAP +supports asynchronous lookups, so those don't use worker processes at all. With +some passdbs and userdbs you can select if worker processes should be used. + + * *client_limit=1*, because only the master auth process connects to auth + worker. + * *service_count=1*, because auth master stops extra idling workers by + disconnecting from them. + * *process_limit* should be a bit higher than *auth_worker_max_count* setting. + + * *user=root* by default, because by default PAM authentication is used, which + usually requires reading '/etc/shadow'. If this isn't needed, it's a good + idea to change this to something else, such as *$default_internal_user*. + * *chroot* could also be set if possible. + +config +------ + +Config process reads and parses the 'dovecot.conf' file, and exports the parsed +data in simpler format to config clients. + + * *user=root*, because the process needs to be able to reopen the config files + during a config reload, and often some parts of the config having secrets + are readable only by root. + * Only root should be able to connect to its UNIX listener, unless there are + no secrets in the configuration. Passwords are obviously secrets, but less + obviously *ssl_key* is also a secret, since it contains the actual SSL key + data instead of only a filename. + +dict +---- + +Dovecot has a "lib-dict" API for doing simple key-value lookups/updates in +various backends (SQL, file, others in future). This is optionally used by +things like quota, expire plugin and other things in future. It would be +wasteful for each mail process to separately create a connection to SQL, so +usually they go through the "proxy" dict backend. These proxy connections are +the client connections of dict processes. + + * dict / Synchronous lookups (e.g. mysql): + * *client_limit=1*, because dict lookups are synchronous and the client is + supposed to disconnect immediately after the lookup. + * dict-async / Asynchronous lookups (e.g. pgsql, cassandra, ldap): + * *process_limit* should commonly be the same as number of CPU cores. + Although with Cassandra this may not be true, because Cassandra library + can use multiple threads. + * *user=$default_internal_user*, because the proxy dict lookups are typically + SQL lookups, which require no filesystem access. (The SQL config files are + read while still running as root.) + * The dict clients can do any kind of dict lookups and updates for all users, + so they can be rather harmful if exposed to an attacker. That's why by + default only root can connect to dict socket. Unfortunately that is too + restrictive for all setups, so the permissions need to be changed so that + Dovecot's mail processes (and only them) can connect to it. + +director +-------- + +<Director.txt> tracker process, which hooks into all auth-client and +auth-userdb connections. + + * *process_limit=1*, because only one process can keep track of everyone's + state. + * *user=$default_internal_user*, because director doesn't access any files. + * *chroot* can't be set, because it still needs to be connect to auth process. + + * Connections are basically proxying auth connections, so they have similar + security considerations. + +dns_client +---------- + +Used by "lib-dns" library to perform asynchronous DNS lookups. The dns-client +processes internally use the synchronous 'gethostbyname()' function. + + * *client_limit=1*, because the DNS lookup is synchronous. + * *user=$default_internal_user*, because typically no special privileged files + need to be read. + * *chroot* can be used only if it contains 'etc/resolv.conf' and other files + necessary for DNS lookups. + +doveadm +------- + +It's possible to run doveadm mail commands via doveadm server processes. This +is useful for running doveadm commands for multiple users simultaneously, and +it's also useful in a multiserver system where doveadm can automatically +connect to the correct backend to run the command. + + * *client_limit=1*, because doveadm command execution is synchronous. + * *service_count=1* just in case there were any memory leaks. This could be + set to some larger value (or 0) for higher performance. + * *user=root*, but the privileges are (temporarily) dropped to the mail user's + privileges after userdb lookup. If only a single UID is used, user can be + set to the mail UID for higher security, because the process can't gain root + privileges anymore. + +imap, pop3, submission, managesieve +----------------------------------- + +Post-login process for handling IMAP/POP3/ <Submission.txt>/ <ManageSieve> +[Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt] client connections. + + * *client_limit* may be increased from the default 1 to save some CPU and + memory, but it also increases the latency when one process serving multiple + clients it waiting for a long time for a lock or disk I/O. In future these + waits may be reduced or avoided completely, but for now it's not safe to set + this value higher than 1 in enterprise mail systems. For small mostly-idling + hobbyist servers a larger number may work without problems. + * *service_count* can be changed from 1 if only a single UID is used for mail + users. This is improves performance, but it's less secure, because bugs in + code may leak email data from another user's earlier connection. + * *process_limit* defaults to 1024, which means that the number of + simultaneous connections for the protocol that this service handles (IMAP, + POP3, <Submission.txt>, or <ManageSieve> [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt]) is + limited by this setting. If you expect more connections, increase this + value. + +imap-login, pop3-login, submission-login, managesieve-login +----------------------------------------------------------- + +See <LoginProcess.txt>. + +indexer +------- + +Indexer master process, which tracks and prioritizes indexing requests from +mail processes. The actual indexing is done by indexer-worker processes. The +indexing means both updating Dovecot's internal index and cache files with new +messages and more importantly updating full text search indexes (if enabled). +The indexer master process guarantees that the FTS index is never modified by +more than one process. + + * *process_limit=1*, because only one process can keep the FTS guarantee. + * *user=$default_internal_user*, because the process doesn't need any + permissions. + * *chroot* could be set to *$base_dir* for extra security. It still needs to + be able to connect to indexer-worker socket. + +indexer-worker +-------------- + +Indexer worker process. + + * *client_limit=1*, because indexing is a synchronous operation. + * *process_limit* defaults to 10, because the FTS index updating can eat a lot + of CPU and disk I/O. You may need to adjust this value depending on your + system. + * *user=root*, but the privileges are (temporarily) dropped to the mail user's + privileges after userdb lookup. If only a single UID is used, user can be + set to the mail UID for higher security, because the process can't gain root + privileges anymore. + +ipc +--- + +IPC hub process. + + * *process_limit=1*, because there can be only one hub. + * *chroot=empty* and *user=$default_internal_user*, because it doesn't need + any files and there are no outbound connections. + * The "ipc" UNIX socket can be used to send any commands to other processes, + such as killing a specific user's connection. It is somewhat security + sensitive. + +lmtp +---- + +LMTP process for delivering new mails. + + * *client_limit=1*, because most of the time spent on an LMTP client is spent + waiting for disk I/O and other blocking operations. There's no point in + having more clients waiting around during that doing nothing. + * However, LMTP proxying is only writing to temporary files that normally + stay only in memory. So for LMTP proxying a client_limit above 1 could be + useful. + * *user=root*, but the privileges are (temporarily) dropped to the mail user's + privileges after userdb lookup. If only a single UID is used, user can be + set to the mail UID for higher security, because the process can't gain root + privileges anymore. + +log +--- + +All processes started via Dovecot master process log their messages via the +"log" process. This allows some nice features compared to directly logging via +syslog. + + * *process_limit=1*, because the log process keeps track of all the other + logging processes. + * *user=root*, because it guarantees being able to write to syslog socket and + to the log files directly. + +ssl-params +---------- + +Build SSL parameters every n days, based on *ssl_parameters_regenerate* +setting. Obsoleted in v2.3.0. + + * *type=startup* so that the (re)generation can be started immediately at + startup when needed, instead of waiting until the first SSL handshake + starts. + +stats +----- + +Mail process statistics tracking.

This means that: + + * If you use more than one <UNIX UID> [UserIds.txt] for your mail users (e.g. + you use system users), you'll need to make sure that all users can access + the mailboxes on filesystem level. ( <ACL plugin> [ACL.txt] won't help you + with this.) + * You can remove write permissions on purpose from public namespace root + directory to prevent users from creating new mailboxes under it. + +Dovecot never modifies permissions for existing mail files or directories. When +users share mailboxes between each others, the system must have been set up in +a way that filesystem permissions don't get in the way. The easiest way to do +that is to use only a single UID. Another possibility would be to use one or +more groups for all the mail files that may be shared to other users belonging +to the same group. For example if you host multiple domains, you might create a +group for each domain and allow mailbox sharing (only) between users in the +same domain. + +System user UNIX groups +----------------------- + +There's no requirement to use UNIX groups (i.e. typically defined in +'/etc/group') for anything. If you don't care about them, you can safely ignore +this section. + +If you use <passwd> [AuthDatabase.Passwd.txt] userdb, the IMAP process has +access to all the UNIX groups defined for that user. You may use these groups +when granting filesystem permissions. If you wish to use UNIX groups defined in +'/etc/group' but don't use passwd userdb, you can still do this by returning +'system_groups_user' <userdb extra field> [UserDatabase.ExtraFields.txt], which +contains the UNIX user name whose groups are read from the group file. + +You can also set up extra UNIX groups by listing them in 'mail_access_groups' +setting. To have per-user UNIX groups, return 'mail_access_groups' as userdb +extra field. The advantage of using this method is that only Dovecot mail +processes have access to the group, but nothing else, such as user's SSH +session. For example a simple way to set up shared mailbox access for all +system users is to make all mail dirs/files 0770/0660 mode and owned by group +"sharedmail" and then set 'mail_access_groups=sharedmail'. Using more fine +grained groups of course leaks less mail data in case there's a security hole +in Dovecot. + +Permissions for new mailboxes +----------------------------- + +When creating a new mailbox, Dovecot copies the permissions from the mailbox +root directory. For example with mboxes if you have directories: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +drwx--xr-x 8 user group 4096 2009-02-21 18:31 /home/user/mail/ +drwxrwxrwx 2 user group 4096 2009-02-21 18:32 /home/user/mail/foo/ +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +When creating a new foo/bar/ directory, Dovecot gives it permissions: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +drwx--xr-x 2 user group 4096 2009-02-21 18:33 /home/user/mail/foo/bar/ +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +As you can see, the file mode was copied from mail/ directory, not mail/foo/. +The group is also preserved. If this causes problems (e.g. different users +having different groups create mailboxes, causing permission denied errors when +trying to preserve the group) you can set the setgid bit for the root +directory: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +chmod g+s /home/user/mail +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This will cause the group to be automatically copied by the OS for all created +files/directories under it, even if the user doesn't belong to the group. + +Permissions for new files in mailboxes +-------------------------------------- + +When creating new files inside a mailbox, Dovecot copies the read/write +permissions from the mailbox's directory.

By making each user have their own private index files, you +can make the \Seen flag private for the users. For example: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = public + separator = / + prefix = Public/ + location = maildir:/var/mail/public:INDEX=~/Maildir/public + subscriptions = no +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Now when accessing e.g. "Public/lkml" mailbox, Dovecot keeps its index files in +'~/Maildir/public/.lkml/' directory. If it ever gets deleted, the \Seen flags +are lost. + +If you want to change what flags are shared when 'dovecot-shared' file exists, +currently you'll have to modify the source +code:'src/lib-storage/index/maildir/maildir-storage.c' maildir_open() has +'mbox->ibox.box.private_flags_mask = MAIL_SEEN;' Change the 'MAIL_SEEN' to any +flag combination you want. See 'src/lib-mail/mail-types.h' for list of valid +flags. + +Maildir: Keyword sharing +------------------------ + +Make sure you don't try to use per-user CONTROL directory. Otherwise +'dovecot-keywords' file doesn't get shared and keyword mapping breaks. + +Subscriptions +------------- + +Typically you want each user to have control over their own subscriptions for +mailboxes in public namespaces. This is why you should set 'subscriptions=no' +to the namespace. Dovecot will then use the parent namespace's subscriptions +file. Note that this practically means you must have a namespace with empty +prefix, otherwise there is no "parent namespace". + +Read-only mailboxes +------------------- + +Read-only mboxes +---------------- + +If you have a read-only directory structure containing mbox files, you'll need +to store index files elsewhere: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = public + prefix = Public/ + location = mbox:/var/mail/public/:INDEX=/var/indexes/public + subscriptions = no +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +In the above example all the users would still be sharing the index files, so +you might have problems with filesystem permissions. Alternatively you could +place the index files under user's home directory. + +Read-only Maildirs +------------------ + +If your Maildir is read-only, the control and index files still need to be +created somewhere. You can specify the path for these by appending +':CONTROL=<path>:INDEX=<path>' to mail location. The path may point to a +directory that is shared among all users, or to a per-user path. Note that if +the Maildir has any keywords, the per-user control directory breaks the +keywords since there is no 'dovecot-keywords' file. + +When configuring multiple namespaces, the CONTROL/INDEX path must be different +for each namespace. Otherwise if namespaces have identically named mailboxes +their control/index directories will conflict and cause all kinds of problems. + +If you put the control files to a per-user directory, you must also put the +index files to a per-user directory, otherwise you'll get errors. It is however +possible to use shared control files but per-user index files, assuming you've +set up permissions properly. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = public + separator = / + prefix = Public/ + location = +maildir:/var/mail/public:CONTROL=~/Maildir/public:INDEX=~/Maildir/public + subscriptions = no +} +namespace { + type = public + separator = / + prefix = Team/ + location = maildir:/var/mail/team:CONTROL=~/Maildir/team:INDEX=~/Maildir/team + subscriptions = no +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Example: Public mailboxes with ACLs +----------------------------------- + +See <ACL.txt> for more information about ACLs. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +namespace { + type = public + separator = . + prefix = public. + location = maildir:/var/mail/public + subscriptions = no + list = children +} + +plugin { + acl = vfile +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +It's important that the namespace type is "public" regardless of whether you +set the namespace prefix to "shared." or something else. + +After this you have to place 'dovecot-acl' files in every mailbox/folder below +'/var/mail/public' with rights for that folder (e.g. 'user=someone lr'). + +'acl_shared_dict' setting is not relevant for public mailboxes (only for +shared). + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/SharedMailboxes.Shared.txt b/doc/wiki/SharedMailboxes.Shared.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..879b4f4 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/SharedMailboxes.Shared.txt @@ -0,0 +1,306 @@ +Mailbox sharing between users +============================= + +To enable mailbox sharing, you'll need to create a shared namespace.

If you use +multiple UNIX UIDs, you may have problems setting up the permissions so that +the mailbox sharing works.

This is because +Dovecot has no way of knowing what users have shared mailboxes to whom. +Iterating through all users and looking inside their mail directories would be +horribly inefficient for more than a couple users. + +To overcome this problem Dovecot needs a dictionary, which contains the list of +users who have shared mailboxes and to whom they have shared. If the users +aren't properly listed in this dictionary, their shared mailboxes won't be +visible. Currently there's no way to automatically rebuild this dictionary, so +make sure it doesn't get lost. If it does, each user having shared mailboxes +must use the IMAP SETACL command (see below) to get the dictionary updated for +themselves. + +You could use any dictionary backend, including SQL, but a simple flat file +should work pretty well too: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + acl_shared_dict = file:/var/lib/dovecot/db/shared-mailboxes.db +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The IMAP processes must be able to write to the 'db/' directory.

It is +currently implemented as a proxy that acts as a front-end for any <MTA.txt>, +adding the necessary functionality required for a submission service: it adds +the required AUTH [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4954] support, avoiding the +need to configure the MTA for SASL authentication. More SMTP capabilities like +CHUNKING [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3030] and SIZE +[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1870] are supported, without requiring the +backend MTA supporting these extensions. Other capabilities like 8BITMIME +[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6152] and DSN +[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3461] currently require support from the +backend/relay MTA. + +The most notable feature that the proxy adds is the BURL capability +[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4468]. The main application of that +capabilitytogether with <IMAP> [IMAPServer.txt] URLAUTH +[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4467]is avoiding a duplicate upload of +submitted e-mail messages; normally the message is both sent through SMTP and +uploaded to the "Sent" folder through IMAP. Using BURL, the client can first +upload the message to IMAP and then use BURL to make the SMTP server fetch the +message from IMAP for submission, thereby avoiding a second upload. Few clients +currently support the BURL capability, but once it becomes available on the +server side, client developers will at least have some incentive to provide +support for this feature. + +*NOTE:* Currently, the submission proxy is still pretty basic. However, it will +provide a basis for adding all kinds of functionality in the (not so distant) +future. For the first time, it will be possible to act upon message submission, +rather than only message retrieval; e.g. plugins can be devised that process +outgoing messages somehow. Examples of the things that could be implemented are +adding <Sieve> [Pigeonhole.txt] filtering support for outgoing messages, or +implicitly storing submitted messages to the Sent folder. Once a plugin API is +devised, you can create your own plugins. + +Features +-------- + +The following SMTP capabilities are supported by the Dovecot submission +service: + + * 8BITMIME [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6152] - Only if relay MTA provides + support + * AUTH [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4954] + * BURL [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4468] + * CHUNKING [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3030] + * DSN [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3461] - Only if relay MTA provides + support + * ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2034] + * PIPELINING [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2920] + * SIZE [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1870] + * STARTTLS [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3207] + * VRFY [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321] + * XCLIENT [http://www.postfix.org/XCLIENT_README.html] + +Configuration +------------- + +Submission Service +------------------ + +Just add 'submission' to the 'protocols=' setting and configure the relay MTA +server. The submission service is a login service, just like IMAP, POP3 and +<ManageSieve> [Pigeonhole.ManageSieve.txt], so clients are required to +authenticate. The same <authentication configuration> [Authentication.txt] will +also apply to submission, unless you're doing protocol-specific things, in +which case you may need to amend your configuration for the new protocol. BURL +support requires a working IMAP URLAUTH implementation. + +The following settings apply to the Submission service: + +submission_logout_format = in=%i out=%o: + The SMTP Submission logout format string. The following variable + substitutions are supported: + %i : + Total number of bytes read from client + + %o : + Total number of bytes sent to client + + %{command_count} : + Number of commands received from client + + %{reply_count} : + Number of replies sent to client + + %{session} : + Session ID of the login session + + %{transaction_id} : + ID of the current transaction, if any + +hostname : + The host name reported by the SMTP service (and other parts of Dovecot), for + example to the client in the initial greeting and to the relay server in the + HELO/EHLO command. Default is the system's real hostname@domain. + +submission_max_mail_size : + The maximum size of messages accepted for relay. This announced in the SMTP + SIZE capability. If not configured, this is either determined from the relay + server or left unlimited if no limit is known (the relay MTA will reply with + error if some unknown limit exists there, which is duly passed to Dovecot's + client). + +submission_max_recipients : + Maximum number of recipients accepted per connection (default: unlimited). + +Relay MTA +--------- + +The Dovecot SMTP submission service directly proxies the mail transaction to +the SMTP relay configured with the following settings: + +submission_relay_host : + Host name for the relay server (required). + +submission_relay_port = 25 : + Port for the relay server. + +submission_relay_trusted = no : + Is the relay server trusted? This determines whether we try to send + (Postfix-specific) XCLIENT data to the relay server. + +submission_relay_user = : + User name for authentication to the relay MTA if authentication is required + there (authorization ID). + +submission_relay_master_user = : + Master user name for authentication to the relay MTA if authentication is + required there (authentication ID). + +submission_relay_password = : + Password for authentication to the relay MTA if authentication is required + there. + +submission_relay_ssl = no : + Indicates whether TLS is used for the connection to the relay server. The + following values are defined for this setting: + no : + No SSL is used. + + smtps : + An SMTPS connection (immediate SSL) is used. + + starttls : + The STARTTLS command is used to establish the TLS layer. + +submission_relay_ssl_verify = yes : + Configures whether the TLS certificate of the relay server is to be verified. + +submission_relay_rawlog_dir : + Write protocol logs for relay connection to this directory for debugging. + +See <Debugging.Rawlog.txt> for more details on rawlogs. + +Login Proxy +----------- + +Like IMAP and POP3, the Submission login service supports proxying to multiple +backend Dovecot servers.

This makes it sure that Dovecot behaves +correctly also when the user's mailbox doesn't exist at the moment (eg. a new +user). If Dovecot can't figure out where the existing mails are, it simply +gives an error message and quits. It never tries to create a missing mailbox +when autodetection is used. + +See <MailLocation.txt> for more information how to configure the mailbox +location. Below are the highlights for mbox and maildir. + +mbox +---- + +The '/var/mail/username' mbox is called user's INBOX.

You can +specify them manually with: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Remember that the first path after 'mbox:' is the mailbox root directory, never +try to give 'mbox:/var/mail/%u' because that just isn't going to work (unless +you really want to store mails under '/var/mail/%u/' directory). + +If you're also using other software than Dovecot to access mboxes, you should +try to figure out what locking methods exactly they're using and update +'mbox_read_locks' and 'mbox_write_locks' settings accordingly.

There are +usually two possibilities why it's moving backwards: + + 1. You're running 'ntpdate' periodically. This isn't a good idea. + 2. You're using some kind of a virtual server and you haven't configured it + right (or it's buggy). + +Moving time backwards might cause various problems (see below), so Dovecot +versions older than v2.0 don't even try to handle the situation. + +Time synchronization +-------------------- + +There are two choices for synchronizing your clock: + + 1. Use ntpd [http://www.ntp.org/]. It periodically checks the current time + from NTP server and slows down or speeds up the clock if necessary. Unlike + ntpdate, it doesn't just move the time forwards or backwards (unless the + difference is large). + * If the time difference is too large for ntpd and it "steps", then use + "-x" as a command line option for ntpd or use "tinker step 0" in + '/etc/ntp.conf'. + * This shows up in logs as: 'ntpd[17697]: time reset -2.075483 s' + 2. If ntpd doesn't work well (e.g. a bad network connection), you can use + clockspeed [http://cr.yp.to/clockspeed.html] or chrony + [http://chrony.sunsite.dk/] as well. + +In some systems ntpd/ntpdate is run at boot, but only after Dovecot has +started. That can cause Dovecot to die immediately. If you have this problem, +fix your init scripts to run ntpd/ntpdate first, before starting Dovecot. +Also, seriously consider running ntp-wait before starting Dovecot. + +Bugs/Issues +----------- + + * With Xen you should run ntpd only in dom0.

Its behavior +when time moves backwards is: + + * Existing imap and pop3 processes either sleep or die, just like with older + versions + * Master process stops creating new processes until either the original time + is reached, or after a maximum wait of 3 minutes. + * Other processes log a warning, but do nothing else. + * Timeouts are updated so that the timeout is executed approximately at the + original intended time. + +Dovecot v2.0 also notices when time unexpectedly jumps forwards. In that +situation it logs a warning and also updates timeouts. + +The reason why imap/pop3 processes get killed and new ones can't be created for +a while is to avoid problems related to timestamps. Some issues are: + + * Uniqueness of Maildir filenames and dbox global unique identifiers relies on + a growing timestamp + * Dotlock files' staleness is detected by looking at its mtime. + * Timestamps are stored internally all around in memory (as well as in index + files) and compared to current time. Those checks may or may not be buggy if + current time shrinks. + +While killing mail processes doesn't fully solve any of those issues, they're +at least less likely to happen then. + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/Timeouts.txt b/doc/wiki/Timeouts.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..8eaceba --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/Timeouts.txt @@ -0,0 +1,61 @@ +Timeouts +======== + +Dovecot has a lot of timeouts in various components.

It shouldn't +have access to any files, authentication databases or anything else either. It +should belong to its own private *dovenull* group where no one else belongs to, +and which doesn't have access to any files either (other than what Dovecot +internally creates). + +You can change the default /dovenull/ user to something else from +'default_login_user' setting. + +Dovecot user +------------ + +/dovecot/ user is used internally for unprivileged Dovecot processes. It should +belong to its own private /dovecot/ group. Mail files are not accessed as +/dovecot/ user, so you shouldn't give it access to mails. + +You can change the default /dovecot/ user to something else from +'default_internal_user' setting. + +Mail users +---------- + +You can use one or more system users for accessing users' mails. Most +configurations can be placed to two categories: + + 1. <System users> [SystemUsers.txt] where each Dovecot user has their own + system user in '/etc/passwd'. For system user setups you generally don't + have to worry about UIDs or GIDs, they are returned by the <userdb passwd> + [AuthDatabase.Passwd.txt] lookup. + 2. <Virtual users> [VirtualUsers.txt] where all Dovecot users run under a + single system user. Typically you'd set this with 'mail_uid' setting (e.g. + 'mail_uid=vmail'). Note that you most likely don't want the <userdb lookup> + [UserDatabase.txt] to return any UID/GID, as they override the 'mail_uid' + setting. + +However it's possible to use a setup that is anything between these two. For +example use a separate system user for each domain. See below for more +information about how UIDs can be used. + +UIDs +---- + +Dovecot's <user database> [UserDatabase.txt] configuration calls system users +UIDs. There are a few things you should know about them: + + * Although UID normally means a numeric ID (as specified by '/etc/passwd'), + it's anyway possible to use names as UID values and let Dovecot do the + lookup (eg. uid=vmail). However depending on where you used it, it may slow + down the authentication. + * The UIDs don't really have to exist in '/etc/passwd' (the kernel doesn't + care about that). For example you could decide to use UIDs 10000-59999 for + 50000 virtual Dovecot users. You'll then just have to be careful that the + UIDs aren't used unintentionally elsewhere. + * The important thing to consider with your UID allocation policy is that if + Dovecot has a security hole in its IMAP or POP3 implementation, the attacker + can read mails of other people who are using the same UID. So clearly the + most secure way is to allocate a different UID for each user. It can however + be a bit of a pain and OSes don't always support more than 65536 UIDs. + * By default Dovecot allows users to log in only with UID numbers 500 and + above. This check tries to make sure that no-one can ever log in as daemons + or other system users. If you're using an UID lower than 500, you'll need to + change the 'first_valid_uid' setting. + +GIDs +---- + +System groups (GIDs) work very much the same way as UIDs described above: You +can use names instead of numbers for GID values, and the used GIDs don't have +to exist in '/etc/group'. + +System groups are useful for sharing mailboxes between users that have +different UIDs but belong to a same group. Currently Dovecot doesn't try to do +anything special with the groups, so if you're not sure how you should create +them, you might as well place all the users into a single group or create a +separate group for each user. + +If you use multiple UIDs and you wish to create <shared mailboxes> +[SharedMailboxes.txt], setting up the groups properly may make your +configuration more secure. For example if you have two teams and their +mailboxes are shared only to their team members, you could create a group for +each team and set the shared mailbox's group to the team's group and +permissions to 0660, so neither team can even accidentally see each others' +shared mailboxes. + +Currently Dovecot supports specifying only the primary group, but if your +userdb returns 'system_user' <extra field> [UserDatabase.ExtraFields.txt], the +non-primary groups are taken from '/etc/group' for that user. In a future +version the whole GID list will be configurable without help from '/etc/group'. + +It's also possible to give all the users access to extra groups with +'mail_access_groups' setting. + +Authentication process user +--------------------------- + +Depending on passdb and userdb configuration, the lookups are done either by +auth process or auth worker process. They have different default users: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +service auth { + user = $default_internal_user +} +service auth-worker { + user = root +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +The user must have access to your <password databases> [PasswordDatabase.txt] +and <user databases> [UserDatabase.txt].

The SQL and LDAP configuration files +have the 'default_pass_scheme' setting for this. If you have passwords in +multiple formats, or the passdb doesn't have such a setting, you'll need to +prefix each password with "{<scheme>}", for example "{PLAIN}plaintext-password" +or "{PLAIN-MD5}1a1dc91c907325c69271ddf0c944bc72". + +UNIX UIDs +--------- + +The most important thing you need to understand is that *Dovecot doesn't access +the users' mails as the /dovecot/ user*! So *don't* put /dovecot/ into the +/mail/ group, and don't make mails owned by the /dovecot/ user. That will only +make your Dovecot installation less secure. + +So, if not the /dovecot/ user, what then? You can decide that yourself. You can +create, for example, one /vmail/ user which owns all the mails, or you can +assign a separate UID for each user. See <UserIds#mailusers> [UserIds.txt] for +more information about different ways to allocate UIDs for users. + +UNIX GIDs +--------- + +Unless you're using <shared mailboxes> [SharedMailboxes.txt] and multiple UIDs, +it doesn't really matter what GIDs you use. You can, for example, use a single +GID for all users, or create a separate GID for each user. See <UserIds#gids> +[UserIds.txt] for more information. + +Home directories +---------------- + +Some people are opposed to the idea of virtual users having home directories, +but no matter what you call it, it's a good idea to have a directory where +user-specific configuration and other state is stored. See +<VirtualUsers.Home.txt> more information. + +Mail location +------------- + +The userdb can return the 'mail' <field> [UserDatabase.txt] to override the +default 'mail_location' setting. Usually you shouldn't need this. + +Examples +-------- + +Dynamic passwd-file locations +----------------------------- + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = maildir:/home/%d/%n/Maildir +passdb { + driver = passwd-file + args = username_format=%n /home/%d/etc/shadow +} +userdb { + driver = passwd-file + args = username_format=%n /home/%d/etc/passwd +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +In the above examples users are expected to log in as "user@domain". Their mail +is kept in their home directory at '/home/<domain>/<username>/Maildir'. + +The usernames in the passwd and shadow files are expected to contain only the +user part, no domain. This is because the path itself already contained %d to +specify the domain. If you want the files to contain full user@domain names, +you can use 'username_format=%u'. + +static userdb +------------- + +Many people store only usernames and passwords in their database and don't want +to deal with UIDs or GIDs. In that case the easiest way to get Dovecot running +is to use the <static userdb> [UserDatabase.Static.txt]: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir +passdb { + driver = pam +} +userdb { + driver = static + args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/var/mail/virtual/%d/%n +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This makes Dovecot look up the mails from +'/var/mail/virtual/<domain>/<user>/Maildir/' directory, which should be owned +by vmail user and vmail group. + +Existing virtual user management software +----------------------------------------- + + * VPopMail [http://www.inter7.com/vpopmail/]: Dovecot <supports VPopMail + directly> [AuthDatabase.VPopMail.txt]. + * Linuxconf [http://www.solucorp.qc.ca/linuxconf/]: See + <Migration.Linuxconf.txt> + * Also see the <HowTo.txt> page + +(This file was created from the wiki on 2019-06-19 12:42) diff --git a/doc/wiki/WhyDoesItNotWork.txt b/doc/wiki/WhyDoesItNotWork.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..54dd8e1 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/wiki/WhyDoesItNotWork.txt @@ -0,0 +1,116 @@ +Why is Dovecot not working for me? +================================== + + * *Dovecot always logs an error message* if anything goes wrong, so make sure + you're looking at the correct log files.
