I'm using a4 on Solaris 9. In dovecot.conf, look for lock_method and
try setting it to fcntl. I think I recall seeing that mentioned in the
changelog. Yeah, there it is, line 210, under
2005-10-03 21:23 Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>.
* dovecot-example.conf, src/deliver/deliver.c,
src/imap/namespace.c, src/lib-index/mail-index-lock.c,
src/master/master-settings.c, src/pop3/main.c: Default
lock_method to flock instead of fcntl. This is at least useful
for not allowing Dovecot's indexes to be used accidentally with
wrong settings in NFS mounted partitions.
Hope it helps...

Mail storage is > NOT nfs mounted. I'm on Solaris 9.I've since updated dovecot-example.conf to have: # Solaris doesn't support flock, so Solaris users need to change this to fcntl. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
