Dovecot seems to be a natural fit for Postfix. As complex as these configurations look, building up to them was easy.

/etc/dovecot.conf

  • listen = 198.51.100.187, 2001:db8::4
    • Set this to your ips, obviously.
  • login_greeting = Dovecot ready (or whatever greeting you feel like)

/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf

Editing guidelines:

  • driver = mysql
  • connect = host=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock dbname=mail user=vmreader password=yourpasshere
  • default_pass_scheme = SSHA256
    • Or choose whatever
  • user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/var/vmail/',d.domain_name,'/',substring(md5(u.username),1,2),'/',u.username) AS home, 999 AS uid, 999 AS gid FROM mail_users AS u, mail_domains AS d WHERE u.isactive AND u.ID_DOMAIN=d.ID_DOMAIN AND d.domain_name='%d' AND u.username='%n'
    • Obviously set the home directory appropriately.
  • password_query = SELECT CONCAT(u.username,'@',d.domain_name) AS user, u.mailpass AS password, CONCAT('/var/vmail/',d.domain_name,'/',substring(md5(u.username),1,2),'/',u.username) AS userdb_home, 999 AS userdb_uid, 999 AS userdb_gid FROM mail_users AS u, mail_domains AS d WHERE u.isactive AND u.ID_DOMAIN=d.ID_DOMAIN AND d.domain_name='%d' AND u.username='%n'
    • Note the md5 hash splitting - you can add further subtrees:
      • password_query = SELECT CONCAT(u.username,'@',d.domain_name) AS user, u.mailpass AS password, CONCAT('/var/vmail/',d.domain_name,'/',substring(md5(u.username),1,2),'/',substring(md5(u.username),3,2),'/',u.username) AS userdb_home, 999 AS userdb_uid, 999 AS userdb_gid FROM mail_users AS u, mail_domains AS d WHERE u.isactive AND u.ID_DOMAIN=d.ID_DOMAIN AND d.domain_name='%d' AND u.username='%n'
      • or additional characters:
      • password_query = SELECT CONCAT(u.username,'@',d.domain_name) AS user, u.mailpass AS password, CONCAT('/var/vmail/',d.domain_name,'/',substring(md5(u.username),1,3),'/',substring(md5(u.username),4,3),'/',u.username) AS userdb_home, 999 AS userdb_uid, 999 AS userdb_gid FROM mail_users AS u, mail_domains AS d WHERE u.isactive AND u.ID_DOMAIN=d.ID_DOMAIN AND d.domain_name='%d' AND u.username='%n'
    • But when you clearly don't need it, too many subtrees is more of a nuisance than a feature.


/etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-sql.conf.ext

# Authentication for SQL users. Included from auth.conf.
#
# <doc/wiki/AuthDatabase.SQL.txt>
passdb {
  driver = sql
  # Path for SQL configuration file, see example-config/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
}
# "prefetch" user database means that the passdb already provided the
# needed information and there's no need to do a separate userdb lookup.
# <doc/wiki/UserDatabase.Prefetch.txt>
userdb {
  driver = prefetch
}
# for the LDA
userdb {
  driver = sql
  args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
}

/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf

  • disable_plaintext_auth = yes
  • auth_username_format = %Lu
  • auth_mechanisms = plain login
  • Comment out system include, uncomment sql include

# Syslog facility to use if you're logging to syslog. Usually if you don't

# Get it out of there.

##
## Logging verbosity and debugging.
##
# Log unsuccessful authentication attempts and the reasons why they failed.
auth_verbose = yes
# In case of password mismatches, log the attempted password. Valid values are
# no, plain and sha1. sha1 can be useful for detecting brute force password
# attempts vs. user simply trying the same password over and over again.
# auth_verbose_passwords = no
# Even more verbose logging for debugging purposes. Shows for example SQL
# queries.
auth_debug = yes
# In case of password mismatches, log the passwords and used scheme so the
# problem can be debugged. Enabling this also enables auth_debug.
#auth_debug_passwords = no
# Enable mail process debugging. This can help you figure out why Dovecot
# isn't finding your mails.
mail_debug = yes
# Show protocol level SSL errors.

Nine nine nine nine...

  • mail_location = maildir:/var/vmail/%d/%2Mn/%n/Maildir

/etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf

Only planning to listen on IMAP over ssl, so:

service auth {
  unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
    group = postfix
    mode = 0666
    user = postfix
  }
}
service imap-login {
  inet_listener imap {
    port = 0
  }
  inet_listener imaps {
    port = 993
    ssl = yes
  }
  process_min_avail = 2
}
