> The source server is really crappy, no need to look at the dovecot side for
causes. My question is: is it possible that the migration did complete
successfully? Dovecot does seem to continue and it's kind of vague on what
went wrong, and did it re-try. This operation can take several hours on large
mailboxes so this question is really meaningful in my case. (I'd try with -D
but it's really hard to reproduce this on demand).
I think imapc automatically reconnects and retries the command. In any case you
should retry if dsync returns non-zero exit code.
(The I/O and timeout leaks don't really matter, but they are also finally
fixed in v2.2.3+.)
