Is anyone running v 1.2.3 and have clients with AVG email scanning?
I upgraded a server a few weeks ago (which ran Dovecot and the Maildir  
mail store), and all of a sudden clients with AVG were unable to use  
POP. Essentially, AVG freezes.  The server upgrade was from FreeBSD 7  
to OpenSolaris 2009.06, and I did upgrade the Dovecot version from  
1.1.17 to 1.2.3, but kept the same config.  When I point those users  
to a port running qmail-popup on another machine (NFS mounting the new  
server), they work fine.  I'm sure I reverted to 1.1.17 during the  
initial hectic days, with no change.  Of course, I'm also sure I had a  
few of the users test the alternate qmail-popup server, maybe they did  
it wrong. :(
Any thoughts?   Should I attach compile configs?

So the problem might not even be related to Dovecot at all, but related to OS or hardware or network? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
