Hi, Can anyone tell me what the 'client_workarounds = outlook-idle' directive exactly does? I have enabled it in my /etc/dovecot.conf, but the problem that I think it should solve still exsits. That is that after being IDLE for more than half an hour Dovecot will disconnect Outlook but Outlook never connects back. Therefore users receive new ma...

A few that look like they might need changing are: login_process_size = 32 login_process_per_connection = yes login_processes_count = 3 mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 30 auth_count = 1 client_workarounds = Does anyone have any pointers to reasonable values for those or other settings?

...ported at http://dovecot.org/clients.html with the message: "Message is no longer available on this server" I have the following configuration: - Postfix as MTA (ver. 2.1), using the Maildir format to store messages. - Dovecot 0.99.10.4_2 serving POP3 and IMAP. Relevant dovecot config: client_workarounds = oe6-fetch-no-newmail outlook-idle default_mail_env = maildir:/%h/Maildir Something important is that I am using freebsd 4.9, and dovecot is installed from ports (/usr/ports/mail/dovecot) Does anyone has the solution for this problem, or at least an idea of what causes it?

We're being bitten an Outlook bug [1,2] that is triggered by a NUL character in a message being sent through POP3. I see that dovecot's imap implementation converts 0x00 to 0x80, but this conversion is not done for POP3. Would it be possible to add an option to do this mapping for POP3 as well?

My Outlook POP3 clients can't download messages that have empty subjects and bodies. I'm running 0.99.11-1.1.fc2 and have added the following line to dovecot.conf client_workarounds = outlook-pop3-no-nuls This didn't help. Any help would be appreciated, Bob

Hi all, Another user posted the same thing a few months back... after contacting them, they said they never got it working. I'm unable to get Pocket Outlook, or FlexMail 2006 working on Dovecot 0.99.13. According to the logs it connects just fine. With Pocket Outlook I'll see the headers for a few seconds, and then it clears and shows nothing. With FlexMail, which is supposed to have
