Hi, Is there a configuration element that would allow me to change the dot-lock name for the user's /var/mail inbox when it is locked? dovecot (correctly) acquires <username>.lock, but I'm having a problem with procmail where some obscure code path is preventing procmail's acquisition of a lock when it's that default name in /var/mail. The issue is not permissions

It wouldn''t be proper to start my first post here without congratulations and thanks to the ZFS team for such an impressive piece of work. Anyway, on to my query. I''ve been trying out ZFS, with a particular focus in reducing latency in a specific application. This application has a fair amount of random writing going on in the background (which, of course, ZFS will make

I've finally managed to run Dovecot without errors in two computers with maildir and indexes stored in NFS. I added a page to wiki about this: http://wiki.dovecot.org/NFS Suggestions how to keep attribute cache enabled but to allow Dovecot to specifically request not to use a cached value (when it's important) would be welcome. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text

Hello, Iam facing a problem in locking of files across samba shares. We have samba 3.0.10 running on Solaris 9 with the smb.conf as follows. # Global parameters [global] workgroup = NMUINT netbios name = NMUINTFS interfaces = <IP> bind interfaces only = Yes security = DOMAIN password server = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX log level = 1 ldap

...server log for more information. [2009-10-16 00:10:42] It nearly never happens with text/plain mails but _very_ often when mails have attachments of some different type. This is inside a 7.2-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD jail. The NFS export is mounted from the machine that is running the jail. Locking with lockf works. Following is the output of `dovecot -n` from the mailserver. Please tell me if you need any further information. Thanks in Advance, Leon $ dovecot -n # 1.2.4: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf # OS: FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p2 amd64 log_path: /var/log/dovecot.log protocols: imaps pop3s managesieve l...

Each time mail is deleted from mbox mailbox the whole mbox while needs to be rewritten to remove the mail. OpenSMTPD and Dovecot run on the same machine. OpenSMTPD receives incoming mails and

What syntax is needed to make this work? The 2.0 wiki recomendations don't work - I can see the inboxes or the folders but not both at once and there are lots of error messages about prefix clashes if I simply use the existing 2.0.20 conf file on 2.1.6 The layout I have is: Inboxes in mbox format - /var/spool/mail/%u Folders in maildir format - /var/spool/imap/%u/Maildir/ Control and

...e=address" -- the performance looks good! The file format from r198638 is indeed rudimentary. Do you already know how the real output format will look like? Just to summarize what I think is important: - minimal size on disk, minimal amount of files - minimal i/o while writing to disk, no lockf or some such - separate process produces separate file(s) - fast merging of outputs from different runs of the same binary - only the coverage output files and the binary (+DSOs) are required to "symbolize" the coverage data (map the data to file names & line numbers) Ideally,...

...> incoming mails and stores them in a mailbox (/var/spool/mail/user). > Dovecot then fetches mails from this mailbox file. > Regarding locks, OpenSMTPD's config should match methods AND order of dovecot's mbox_write_locks.? Methods known by dovecot are dotlock, flock, fcntl and lockf. I couldn't find out, which methods are used by OpenSMTPD. Dovecot's mbox_read_locks should match too, but dotlock isn't used. https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation/mbox https://wiki.dovecot.org/MboxLocking https://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/mbox Martin
