Hello, We are using dovecot (2.2.10) and it's working great! When I enable chrooting by appending /./ to the homedirs I'm getting errors like this: mail1 dovecot[47074]: imap(user): Error: Temp file creation to /tmp/dovecot.imap.mail1.70079. failed: No such file or directory On the surface everything seems to be working fine and I have not been able to produce the error myself. Any

Hi, Currently Dovecot's LMTPd writes incoming emails to mail_temp_dir if it's bigger than 128k. But I would like to spare those unnecessary operations (creating a file, deleting it, writing into it, reading from it, checking whether there is free space and if not, rejecting (temporarily) the message). Memory is cheap, disk IO is not. :) And BTW, on a lot of s...

...ault temp file path to /tmp. So why was the move made in the first place? Because a) some people had small (maybe ramfs) /tmp and Dovecot was eating it all up and b) to avoid any potential security issues with storing per-user files to a shared directory. I'm now thinking about a new setting (mail_temp_dir?) for v2.0 where these temp files would be stored (lda, lmtp, some others in future). Maybe the b) problem isn't that huge, so maybe there doesn't need to be a way to store them to user's home. So that leaves a) problem. Maybe the setting could default to /var/tmp instead of /tmp? That...

...o this list, it is stated that dovecot sometimes creates temp files to avoid 'excessive memory usage'. I'm guessing that this is the case here, also the error message is similiar: https://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2016-June/104722.html Should I simply change the configuration variable mail_temp_dir to solve this? Why is dovecot not able to find the /tmp folder? In the list thread, it is stated that this is caused by dovecot running with enabled chrooting. As far as I understand it though (correct me if I'm wrong), chrooting is not enabled in my dovecot configuration. Please find attached...
