Dovecot v2.1+ supports gathering statistics (CPU, disk usage, etc.) from mail processes (IMAP, POP3, LMTP, etc.) to the stats process.

Basic Configuration

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins stats

protocol imap {
  # With imap_stats plugin you can get per-command level statistics for IMAP commands
  mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_stats
}

plugin {

  stats_refresh = 30 secs
  # track per-IMAP command statistics (optional)
  stats_track_cmds = yes
}

level

  • session    Per IMAP/POP3 connection
  • user    Per user (all of user’s sessions summed up)
  • domain    Per domain (all of domain’s users summed up)
  • ip    Per IP address (all sessions from the IP summed up)
  • global    Everything summed up (2.2.16+)

filter:

doveadm auth

 

# Test authentication for a user

    doveadm [-a auth_socket_path] user [password]

# Version: 2.2

doveadm auth test aaa@aaa your_pw

Cache

Dovecot supports caching the results of password and user database lookups.

# LOG

Jan 13 12:27:27 server dovecot: auth: cache(x@x,y.y.y.y): Password mismatch

Flush Cache & Status

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.

The authentication cache can be flushed by sending a SIGHUP to dovecot-auth. (doveadm auth cache flush)

Sending SIGUSR2 to dovecot-auth makes it log the number of cache hits and misses.

# Setting

auth_cache_ttl: Time to live in seconds for cache entries.
                        ( removed from the cache only when the cache is full and a new entry is to be added)

auth_cache_size: Authentication cache size, 0 disables caching (default)

auth_cache_negative_ttl: a passdb or userdb lookup didn't return any data
                                        ( i.e. the user doesn't exist)

# MySetting

auth_verbose = yes
# auth_cache setting
auth_cache_negative_ttl = 900
auth_cache_size = 1M
auth_cache_negative_ttl = 1 hour

# Cache keys

For SQL and LDAP lookups Dovecot figures this out automatically by using all the used %variables 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.

The following databases require specifying the cache key:

passdb {
  driver = pam
  args = cache_key=%s%u *
}

 


doveadm pw

 

# password hash generator

-l                      # List all supported password schemes

-s scheme         # CRYPT MD5 MD5-CRYPT DIGEST-MD5 PLAIN-MD5

-p <pw>           # will no prompt interactively

Example

doveadm pw -l

CRYPT MD5 MD5-CRYPT SHA SHA1 SHA256 SHA512 SMD5 ...

# Generate a password hash

doveadm pw -s MD5-CRYPT

doveadm pw -s 'sha512' -p '123456'

Tested it with

doveadm pw -t $YOUR_GENERATED_HASH -p $PASSWORD

mount

 

The doveadm mount commands can be used to manage the list of mountpoints where mails are stored.

This is used mainly for better error handling when a mountpoint isn't mounted for some reason

Dovecot automatically adds mountpoints to this list at startup.

If you don't want some of the mountpoints added, you can add a wildcard ignore for it.

Err log

... imap([email protected]):
  Error: user [email protected]: Initialization failed: Namespace '':
  Can't create mailbox root dir /home/vmail/vmail1/datahunter.org/datahunter//Maildir:
  Mountpoint /home isn't mounted. Mount it or remove it with doveadm mount remove
... imap([email protected]):
  Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information.

Mount List

doveadm mount list

Mount Remove

doveadm mount remove path

ie.

doveadm mount remove /home

Mount Add

doveadm mount add [path [state]]

If this command is run without any parameters, doveadm detects all missing mountpoints and adds them

state: "online" (default) or "ignore"

The ignore state is mainly useful with path wildcards to add mountpoints

that you never want Dovecot to automatically add,

such as: doveadm mount add '/mnt/*' ignore
