Hi, I have recently been having a small problem with Dovecot (dovecot-0.99.13) not honouring the "maildir_copy_with_hardlinks" config option, specifically when it is set to "no". This results in errors to the syslog looking like: Jan 12 09:59:21 imap imap(dave): link(/afs/.../tmp/1105541958.P1137Q0M41428.imap, /afs/.../new/1105541958.P1137Q0M41428.imap:2,S) failed in maildir_copy: Invalid cross-device l...

Hi, I'm trying to get the so-called "single instance store" (I think cyrus has got the name for the first time) with dovecot --version = 2.0.19 binary package installed from ubuntu 12.04 lts official repo.

Unfortunately, even with maildir_copy_with_hardlinks set to "no", the problem still seems to persist. So my question becomes: is there a way to prevent dovecot from using hardlinks in all circumstances? (If...

My company recently changed mail server from cyrus to dovecot. The problem is that dovecot does not support hard links for message files with same message ID. I turned on the ?maildir_copy_with_hardlinks? option in dovecot.conf, but it does not seems to have relation to this problem, am I misunderstood? Hard links are created when move or copy messages from one folder to other folder, but when deliver creates messages this option does not works. Our mail storage will be exhausted in few days. If...

...ntally deleting mail: fileinto :copy "backup"; Should I expect this backup to be hardlinked to the ordinary one? Obviously, that would make the backup be almost for free in terms of storage, but currently I do not see any linking.

Hi, I'm trying to add a code in dovecot that will notify my services when a message is updated/added/moved/copied. I checked dovecot code a bit and mail-storage.c seems to be a nice place for tracking but I'm not sure if I can track all changes there. Does anyone have any experience with this topic or ideas?
