I'm very sorry if this is a faq. I've spent considerable time reading documentation and doing Google searches to no avail...and the mailing list archive isn't searchable as far as I can tell. Anyway, the question: When I try to open a large mbox file from Squirrel Mail I receive the following Dovecot error: Jun 23 10:47:55 jetta dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(kevin): file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 400 (mbox_sync_read_and_move): ass ertion failed: (need_space == (uoff_t)-mails[idx].space) Jun 23 10:47:56 jetta dovecot: [ID 684838 mail.error] child 28535 (imap) killed with signal 6 Not sure what other information you will need. (There's no posting guideline for the mailing list) Here's my guess: Dovecot version: 1.0.beta9 OS version: Solaris x86 v10 I'm guessing a listing of non-default values in dovecot.conf would be useful too: $ grep -vE "^ *#" dovecot.conf | grep -E "^ *[a-z\}]" ssl_listen = *:993 first_valid_uid = 100 protocol imap { } protocol pop3 { } protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster at example.com } auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } user = root } plugin { }
Greetings, Given the error message, I can't help but wonder if there are any /quotas/ imposed on your account/ the system. Also, are there any restrictions on the UID/GID that dovecot is running as? It might also be worth knowing if the user/ group dovecot is running as has /any/ R/W rights to the system/ location it's running on/ at. Just thought these might be worth looking at; given the error dovecot emits. --Chris Quoting Kevin Warren <kevin.warren at creeting.co.uk>:> I'm very sorry if this is a faq.

Does it maybe have CR+LF linefeeds? That wasn't fixed in beta9 yet. If not, could you put the mbox through http://dovecot.org/tools/mbox-anonymize.pl and send it to me? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
