...7m 59s ext3, data=journal: 14m 11s ext3, data=writeback: 4m 2s I've discussed this with a senior bogofilter developer, Matthias Andree, who says, "tell them we have many scattered pwrites and one final fsync()." You can see graphs of what's going on on his website: 1. http://mandree.home.pages.de/bogofilter/writes.png -- the writes are pretty much unordered. 2. which pages were accessed how frequently, http://mandree.home.pages.de/bogofilter/frequency.png. Some further findings: o It doesn't matter if the source (mbox) file is on ext3/ordered or ext2; the differenc...

I had originally thought that I'd do a complete audit of the Dovecot's sources this weekend, but looks like I didn't. Hopefully I've been writing good enough code that the "1000 EUR for security hole" offer lasts for a long time. :) This release should fix the SSL parameter regeneration problem. There were two changes that were needed to fix it, but I had forgotten the

Since there have been so many requests, I guess it's time for beta3 now. There are a couple of issues that I'm still concerned about, but those probably happen with beta2 as well. If you're beginning to see more connection hangs/timeouts with this release, please tell me. * Dotlock code changed to timeout faster in some situations when the lock file is old. + Added support for

Next release will probably be called 1.0.rc1. People just don't seem to like the beta name in the version number. :) Also I think we're nearing the final v1.0. * Fixed a security hole with mbox: "1 LIST .. *" command could list all directories and files under the mbox root directory, so if your mails were stored in eg. /var/mail/%u/ directory, the command would list

Hello, I am using dovecot [1.0 beta3] as a pop server with drac. It is working nicely, but I am getting the following message in a log: dovecot: pop3(keke): file ioloop.c: line 154 (timeout_remove): \ assertion failed: (*timeout != NULL) dovecot: child 15752 (pop3) killed with signal 6 Adding '&' to 'to_drac' in drac_deinit of drac.c stops the message: void

Hi all, ok, after looking at all of the posts that I've found, and trying numerous settings, I am a little stumped as to how to set up the deliver program with qmail to get everything correct. Ultimately, I really don't want to do a lookup of the home dir if I don't have to. I'd rather specify the stuff in the .qmail-user file for that particular user to avoid the extra step. In

Looks like maildir can't be used very realiably without quite a lot of locking. Writing and scanning the directory would have to be locked, but reading wouldn't (as long as the file hasn't been renamed which would require scanning to find it). So much for "no locks needed".. The problem is that opendir()/readdir() may temporarily not return some files if there has been
