Upgrade iRedMail from 1.1 to 1.2

ChangeLog

• XXX XX, 2020: initial release.

General (All backends should apply these changes)

Update /etc/iredmail-release with new iRedMail version number

iRedMail stores the release version in /etc/iredmail-release after installation, it's recommended to update this file after you upgraded iRedMail, so that you can know which version of iRedMail you're running. For example:

1.2

For OpenLDAP backend

Improved last login track

In iRedMail-1.0, Dovecot is configured to store user last login time in SQL database iredadmin, but it only tracks either POP3 or IMAP login. In iRedMail-1.2, it tracks both, also track when new email was delivered via LMTP or LDA. Please follow steps below to implement this improvement.

• Open file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (Linux/OpenBSD) or /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf (FreeBSD), find the last_login_key parameter and replace it by below one:

    last_login_key = last-login/%s/%u/%d

• Append service name last_login to the mail_plugins = line inside both protocol lda {} and protocol lmtp {} blocks like below:

protocol lda {
    mail_plugins = ... last_login
    ...
}

protocol lmtp {
    mail_plugins = ... last_login
    ...
}

• Open file /etc/dovecot/dovecot-last-login.conf (Linux/OpenBSD) or /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-last-login.conf (FreeBSD), remove existing map {} block and add 4 new map {} blocks used to track POP3/IMAP/LMTP/LDA services.

map {
    pattern = shared/last-login/imap/$user/$domain
    table = last_login
    value_field = imap
    value_type = uint

    fields {
        username = $user
        domain = $domain
    }
}

map {
    pattern = shared/last-login/pop3/$user/$domain
    table = last_login
    value_field = pop3
    value_type = uint

    fields {
        username = $user
        domain = $domain
    }
}

map {
    pattern = shared/last-login/lda/$user/$domain
    table = last_login
    value_field = lda
    value_type = uint

    fields {
        username = $user
        domain = $domain
    }
}

# Treat lmtp as lda
map {
    pattern = shared/last-login/lmtp/$user/$domain
    table = last_login
    value_field = lda
    value_type = uint

    fields {
        username = $user
        domain = $domain
    }
}

• Download prepared SQL file used to alter SQL tables:

wget -O /root/last_login.mysql https://github.com/iredmail/iRedMail/raw/1.2/update/1.2/last_login.mysql
mysql iredadmin < /root/last_login.mysql
rm -f /root/last_login.mysql

• Restarting Dovecot service is required.

For MySQL/MariaDB backends
