Everything works, eventually. All mail will sooner or later get
delivered, using dovecot LDA from postfix, but these errors rampage
the log several times. I recently added managesieve, expires, and
finished the quota which I thought was achived by simply having
quota_rule as a result of mysql.

On another note, Thunderbird is starting to get on my nerves, sending
this message before I was finished.
Here is the relevant config:
dovecot-mysql query:
user_query = SELECT CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/',
mailboxes.username, '/') AS home, CONCAT('/home/mail/',
mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/sieve/',
mailboxes.username, '.sieve') as sieve, CONCAT('/home/mail/',
mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username, '/sieve/') as sieve_dir,
CONCAT('/home/mail/', mailboxes.domain, '/', mailboxes.username,
'/mail/') AS maildir, uid AS uid, gid AS gid,
CONCAT('maildir:storage=', ROUND(mailboxes.quota/1200), 'M') AS
quota_rule, 'Trash:ignore' AS quota_rule2 FROM mail.mailboxes WHERE
username = '%n' AND domain = '%d' AND active = '1'
dovecot.conf:
protocol managesieve {
listen = localhost:2001
managesieve_implementation_string = dovecot
managesieve_logout_format = bytes ( in=%i : out=%o )
mail_executable = /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve
login_executable = /usr/libexec/dovecot/managesieve-login
}
auth_debug = no
auth default {
mechanisms = plain login
passdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf
# scheme = cram-md5
}
userdb sql {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf
}
user = mail
socket listen {
client {
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
user = postfix
group = postfix
mode = 0660
}
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0666
}
}
}
dict {
# # NOTE: dict process currently runs as root, so this file will be
owned as root.
expire = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-expire.conf
quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-quota.conf
}
plugin {
quota = dict:user::proxy::quotadict
expire = Trash 7 Trash/* 7 Spam 30
expire_dict = proxy::expire
expire_altmove = * 2555
sieve_global_path = /home/mail/sieve/global.sieve
sieve_global_dir = /home/mail/sieve
sieve_dir=/home/mail/%d/%n/sieve
}
As said, everything works, eventually, but mail delivery is delayed a
lot.

Removing the expires plugin, due to removing its dict, causes everything
to work normally. for some reason, dovecot 1.2.13 with managesieve
0.11.11 doesn't like using any dictionaries such as:
#dict {
# NOTE: dict process currently runs as root, so this file will be
owned as root.
#expire = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-expire.conf
#quotadict = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dict-quota.conf
#}
Since I use maildir, I don't need a quota dict, which means I can just
work around this problem. I don't HAVE to use expires as I have put a
cronjob to go around the spam and trash boxes, deleting messages over 60
days old, for spam, and 15 days for trash.
Please, someone, explain why the dictionaries do not want to work. I
used the sql config for both from the dovecot.org, those configs
relating to dovecot 1.2. I thought there may be a workaround of not
using the proxy::, as the mysql is on the same machine as dovecot and
multiple connections would not be a problem.
