Hello, i spent couple hours tampering with dovecot 1.2.9 on Ubuntu 10.04, now it finally works, so maybe someone can use it... it will be probalby same for Debian Squeeze First, here is my /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf file: Code: base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/ protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3 disable_plaintext_auth = no log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/_.my-domain.tld/_.my-domain.tld.crt ssl_key_file = /etc/ssl/_.my-domain.tld/_.my-domain.tld.key mail_privileged_group = mail login_greeting = my-domain.tld IMAP server ready... ## IMAP specific settings protocol imap { mail_executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/rawlog /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugins = quota imap_quota } ## POP3 specific settings protocol pop3 { mail_executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/rawlog /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv mail_plugins = quota } ## LDA specific settings protocol lda { # Address to use when sending rejection mails. postmaster_address = [email protected] # Support for dynamically loadable plugins. mail_plugins is a space separated # list of plugins to load. mail_plugin_dir = /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda # UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users. auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master # Enabling Sieve plugin for server-side mail filtering mail_plugins = sieve quota } ## Plugin settings plugin { quota = maildir sieve=/var/vmail/%d/%n/.sieve } ## Authentication processes # Executable location #auth_executable = /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-auth auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb pam { } # SQL database <doc/wiki/AuthDatabase.SQL.txt> passdb sql { # Path for SQL configuration file args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } # new quota support: userdb prefetch { } userdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } ## dovecot-lda specific settings ## socket listen { master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0600 user = vmail # User running Dovecot LDA #group = vmail # Or alternatively mode 0660 + LDA user in this group } client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } } mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_uid = 5000 mail_gid = 5000 As you can have noticed all the users will have uid& gid 5000, also sieve script location & maildir will be following same pattern , so we don't have to read this data from MySQL all the time. This is the original user query: user_query = SELECT email as user, maildir as home, CONCAT(maildir, '/Maildir') as mail, uid, gid, CONCAT('maildir:storage', quota) AS quota, CONCAT(maildir, '/.sieve') AS sieve FROM mail_user WHERE email = '%u' AND disable%Ls = 'n'] I have removed uid, gid, sieve and also "user_query = CONCAT(maildir, '/Maildir')" as is doen't seem to be used anywhere Now we can modify /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf Code: driver = mysql connect = host=localhost dbname=dbispconfig user=ispconfig password=your_gerated_password_from_ISPC3 default_pass_scheme = CRYPT password_query = SELECT password FROM mail_user WHERE email = '%u' AND disable%Ls = 'n' ### we must change user query, here is the correct one, notice that storage quota must be set in bytes user_query = SELECT email AS user, maildir AS home, CONCAT('*:storage=', quota , 'B') AS quota_rule FROM mail_user WHERE email = '%u' AND disable%Ls = 'n' That's it. Sieve scripts are working , roundcube is showing correct quota, also Thunderbird.
User query failed: Thanks for this walkthrough. I am having a problem getting this to work however. Any help would be appreciated. After following the steps here I am getting the following error message in my mail.log User query failed: Incorrect parameters in the call to native function 'CONCAT' System: postfix 2.7.0-1 dovecot 1.2.9 ispconfig 3.0.3
Can you suggest a setup guide for dovecot w/ispconfig3 on ubuntu 10.04. I will try it again from scratch. The guide I was using was the perfect server guide and it used courier...which I was trying to get rid of in favor of dovecot.
This One is from SVN trunk, for Debian 6 bud i used it for Ubuntu 10.4 Installation ------------- # It is recommended to use a clean (fresh) Debian Squeeze 6.0 install where you just selected "Standard System" at the package selection during # setup (tasksel). Then follow the steps below to setup your server with ISPConfig 3. In this guide "vi" is used as text editor, but # you can use whatever you prefer. You should be root for doing all of this. # Check we have Fully Qualified Domain Name /bin/hostname # it should return something like "ispconfig.example.com" # if not, then we assign a hostname (for example ispconfig): echo ispconfig.example.com > /etc/hostname vi /etc/hosts # and add lines similar but appropriate: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.100 ispconfig.example.com ispconfig # Run: /etc/init.d/hostname.sh # enable the Debian Volatile repository to get an updated ClamAV version # The Volatile repository for Debian Squeeze was not available yet at the time this howto was written. # echo "deb http://volatile.debian.org/debian-volatile squeeze/volatile main contrib non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/volatile.list # apt-get update # Some optional choices opt0.1) Optionally install SSH-server to get remote shell apt-get install openssh-server opt0.2) Optionally, if you are not running inside a virtual machine, you can set server clocksync via NTP.

Thanks for the info. I have installed the system as per your instructions with changes to make it work with ubuntu 9.10. Most everything seems to be working except email. I am getting the following error: Code: Fatal: Plugin sieve not found from directory /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/lda Before I dig around I wanted to see if there was a known solution. The following files are in the directory listed: lib90_cmusieve_plugin.a lib90_cmusieve_plugin.la lib90_cmusieve_plugin.so and some symlinks to some other files that don't seem relevant.
I did some searching and many of the dovecot/ubuntu posts referenced the sieve plugin as cmusieve. So before getting to deep I checked the mail_plugins value in dovecot.conf and it was: Code: mail_plugins = sieve quota I changed it to: Code: cmusieve quota and now mail is working. Thanks for your help and information.
Mailuser interface Next thing you want to implement. http://bugtracker.ispconfig.org/index.php?do=details&task_id=350&project=3 After you have done it, can paste HOWTO here, that i'll will send Thanks to you
Maybe it would be interesting for thoses who have the same error message than me during the installation of ISPConfig on Debian Lenny with Dovecot 1.2 .x (from backports) : Code: Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotError: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 681: Unknown setting: sieve Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf In fact there is a problem in the dovecot.conf. The protocol "managesieve" is now called "lda" and the plugin "cmusieve" is called "sieve" from V1.2 of Dovecot. So you'll have to replace this : Code: protocol managesieve { By that : Code: protocol lda { And this : Code: mail_plugins = cmusieve quota (be careful : it's the mail_plugins directive INSIDE THE "protocol lda {" ) By that : Code: mail_plugins = sieve quota After that, Dovecot was able to start for me.
