Fail2ban Postfix & Dovecot port errors when saving

Webmin
1

Hi,

I searched the forums / web and have seen this issue mentioned a few times but I’ve not found a solution. When trying to enable or alter a filter action jail for postfix-sasl or dovecot both throw the following error when saving:

Failed to save jail : Invalid port name, number or range; use a single port name, number or a range in the form start:end; to specify multiple ports, separate them with commas

This error links back to fail2ban/save_jail.cgi (line 53) - at least for Dovecot.

I should also add that these are the default settings (dovecot): pop3,pop3s,imap,imaps,submission,465,sieve

Hopefully someone can point me to a solution while I poke around in the code… :grin:

Thanks
m
