Error in dovecot configuration

maurice · July 12, 2023, 1:30pm

Hi
It seems that after last night update, there is an error preventing dovecot from (re)starting.

doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/90-sieve.conf line 231: Unknown setting: sieve_vacation_send_from_recipient

sieve_vacation_send_from_recipient was mentioned twice in that file, the one in the protocol imap{} block shouldn’t be there. I commented that line and dovecot could be started again.

Was that entry created by the update script?

Found the culprit, more info @ Fix #3496 Fix issue with Sieve and SMTP relay (#3581) · hestiacp/hestiacp@04e3297 · GitHub

But the original file doesn’t contain protocol imap{}

## Settings for the Sieve interpreter
##

# Do not forget to enable the Sieve plugin in 15-lda.conf and 20-lmtp.conf
# by adding it to the respective mail_plugins= settings.

# The Sieve interpreter can retrieve Sieve scripts from several types of
# locations. The default `file' location type is a local filesystem path
# pointing to a Sieve script file or a directory containing multiple Sieve
# script files. 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 ore more Sieve scripts accept
# the following syntax:
#
# location = [<type>:]path[;<option>[=<value>][;...]]
#
# 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

This file has been truncated. show original

So unless you have made custom changes it should work fine …

Will submit a PR anyway

True, I had custom changes in that file. As a precaution I moved those to a new file.
Still, for only a little effort extra you PR can take into account a modified file.
Thank you for your PR.
