For LMTP delivery, this is required: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +protocol lmtp { + mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify push_notification +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +If you also want push notifications to work for LDA-based delivery, you would +need additional configuration: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +protocol lda { + mail_plugins = $mail_plugins notify push_notification +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Drivers +------- + +DLOG (Debug log) +---------------- + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + push_notification_driver = dlog +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +This will cause notifications to end up in your debug log. + +OX (Open-Xchange) driver +------------------------ + + The OX backend supports sending notifications on MessageNew events (i.e. mail +deliveries, not IMAP APPENDs). + +The HTTP end-point (URL + authentication information) to use is configured in +the Dovecot configuration file. The appropriate configuration options will +contain the HTTP URL denoting the end-point to connect to as well as the +authentication information for Basic Authentication as configured by properties +"com.openexchange.rest.services.basic-auth.login" and +"com.openexchange.rest.services.basic-auth.password". The URL to configure in +Dovecot configuration follows this pattern. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +<http|https> + "://" + <login> + ":" + <password> + "@" + <host> + ":" + <port> ++ "/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify" +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +E.g. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +plugin { + push_notification_driver = +ox:url=http://login:pass@node1.domain.tld:8009/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +For HTTPS endpoints, system CAs are trusted by default, but internal CAs might +need further configuration. + +Furthermore, it is also possible to specify more than one HTTP end-point to +connect to if a new message delivery occurs. Thus the configuration section +mentioned above may be extended by additional "push_notification_driver" +entries; e.g. push_notification_driver2, push_notification_driver3, etc. + +Please note that the path "/preliminary/http-notify/v1/notify" denotes the +internal REST API of the Open-Xchange Middleware, which is not publicly +accessible. The administrator can decide whether to add that path to the Apache +configuration (see alsoAppSuite:Apache_Configuration and AppSuite:Grizzly) +through a Location/ProxyPass directive: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +<Location /preliminary> + Order Deny,Allow + Deny from all + # Only allow access from servers within the network. Do not expose this + # location outside of your network. In case you use a load balancing service +in front + # of your Apache infrastructure you should make sure that access to +/preliminary will + # be blocked from the internet / outside clients. Examples: + # Allow from 192.168.0.1 + # Allow from 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 + # Allow from 192.168.0. + ProxyPass /preliminary balancer://oxcluster/preliminary +</Location> +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +In case the "user=" sent by OX in the push_notification_driver url data does +not match the IMAP login of a user, Dovecot ignores it. This can be overridden +by defining "user_from_metadata" in the push_notification_driver url, e.g. + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +push_notification_driver = ox:url=http://example.com/ user_from_metadata +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Metadata +-------- + +The push notifications are enabled separately for each user using METADATA. +Normally <AppSuite.txt> does this internally, but for e.g. testing purposes you +can do this yourself: + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +doveadm mailbox metadata set -u user@example.com -s "" +/private/vendor/vendor.dovecot/http-notify user=11@3 +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Example Payload +--------------- + +See +https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/master/src/plugins/push-notification/push-notification-driver-ox.c. + +Push notification sent in JSON format with the following fields: + + * *user*: User identifier (string) + * *event*: RFC 5423 event type (string; currently only "'MessageNew'") + * *folder*: Mailbox name (string) + * *imap-uidvalidity*: RFC 3501 UIDVALIDITY value of the mailbox (integer) + * *imap-uid*: UID of the message, if applicable (integer) + * *from*: RFC 2822 address of the message sender, if applicable (string) + * *subject*: Subject of the message, if applicable (string) + * *snippet*: Snippet of the message body, if applicable (string) + * *unseen*: RFC 3501 UNSEEN value of the mailbox (integer) + +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 + +{ + "user": "4@464646669", + "imap-uidvalidity": 123412341, + "imap-uid": 2345, + "folder": "INBOX", + "event": "MessageNew", + "from": "alice@barfoo.org", + "subject": "Test", + "snippet": "Hey guys\nThis is only a test...", + "unseen": 2 +} +---%<------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +Lua +--- + +Since v2.3.4+ you can use Lua to write custom push notification handlers.
