Dear all,
    Hi.  This is imacat from Taiwan.  We are running Dovecot 1.1.1.  I
received complaints from one of my colleagues.  She checks her mails
both from home and from office, so she left her mails in the server for
3 days.  This morning she got lots of received mails again.  I tracked
the syslog, and found the following records:
===========Jul  2 18:39:59 odin dovecot: POP3(mindyw): Disconnected: Logged out
top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/577, size=55354063
Jul  3 11:59:17 odin dovecot: POP3(mindyw): Disconnected: Logged out
top=0/0, retr=99/4866408, del=287/676, size=60218727
Jul  3 12:05:19 odin dovecot: POP3(mindyw): Disconnected: Logged out
top=0/0, retr=288/35132998, del=2/677, size=60220846
Jul  3 12:09:58 odin dovecot: POP3(mindyw): Disconnected: Logged out
top=0/0, retr=2/9289, del=2/675, size=60190368
===========
    It seems that the deleted 287 mails was not really deleted, though
the second deletion works.
    This happens occationally, so I cannot easily reproduce it.  Can
anyone look into this issue?  How can I debug further?
    Thank you very much in advance.

They might even be logged to a different file, see http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging Also is this with mbox or maildir? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
