...gues, I use exim's appendfile transport, procmail and a local mutt on my system, they all (to my knowledge) use lockfiles when working with mboxes. However, `doveconf | grep lock` says dotlock_use_excl = yes lock_method = fcntl mail_max_lock_timeout = 0 mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 2 mins mbox_lock_timeout = 5 mins mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl pop3_lock_session = no Do I need to change anything in dovecot's default locking setup? Does it still use lockfiles on mboxes or not? There are some contradictory parameters IMHO. -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2...

If pop3_lock_session = yes, how does Dovecot LDA handle the situation when the pop3 mbox is locked? Does it requeue mail for later delivery immediately (EX_TEMPFAIL), or wait until mbox_lock_timeout? Thanks, Ken A. Pacific.Net

...ive : a process seeing that an already locked (by another process) mbox he want to access hasn't change for this amount of time, allows himself to override the lock ? If it's using fcntl, is it only possible to override ? - when a process abort trying to get a lock after mbox_lock_timeout, does the UA sees anything ? - multiple locking methods in "mbox_write_lock" : if I state, for instance, mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl when does exactly dotlock method get used and when does fcntl get used ? Are both used simultaneously ? Which leads to the...

...is? Despite potential issues associated with NFS, I didn't see the problem with 2.2. There is nothing in my conf file related to locking, so if there was a change, it must be a default for 2.3 (from doveconf -a): dotlock_use_excl = yes lock_method = fcntl mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 2 mins mbox_lock_timeout = 5 mins mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl 2) If the problem is related to NFS locks, why would the problem persist when the user runs thunderbird from the server where his home directory *is not* NFS-mounted? Thanks for any help. Cheers, Zube

Hi guys, How can I modify the timeout value for the pop3_lock_session ? I'd like it to be much bigger.
