...before the error was pool_system_malloc(): Out of memory. I initially changed mmap_disable to "yes", the error stopped, but it still wasn't moving messages reliably. I then set MM parameters more aggressively: mail_read_mmaped = yes, mmap_disable = no (and the third of the series, mmap_no_write, is left unset). The error stopped popping up, and the moving works speedily. Maybe the default for mail_read_mmaped should be "yes?" Thank you! Sergey.

Hi, I recently upgraded dovecot on an OpenBSD server from the 0.99.x series to the 1.0-test series to eliminate a problem. That was fixed, however I am now experiencing issues with IMAP(S) connections. The main IMAPS use to the server is via Squirrelmail (many users login with it), however I typically use Thunderbird. The user mailboxes are stored in Maildir format. Basically, moving,

...- A lot more difficult to crash it with corrupted index files - Recent flag works, this time exactly as IMAP RFC says - Maildir syncing fixes - fcntl_lock_disable and mmap_disable settings to make it work with NFS.. almost. Not very well tested and there's a few performance issues left. - mmap_no_write setting to disable mixing write/mmap calls. Required for OpenBSD. Uses slightly more memory. If you can break the indexes, I'd like to know about that. I think they should work pretty well now. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, I am using dovecot: 1.0.rc15 I was upgrading Debian and installed new versions of lots of things. My mail came fine and I though there was not problem until a user called and said it was not working through webmail. I tried, it it worked fine and I realized the problem was with dovecot. I have created new users, tried different UIDs. Removed any protections but when I telnet to the

...To ensure it wasn't just a fluke of logins, I let each app run for several minutes, and did the test multiple times. The results were not any abnormal user usage and definitely related to application performance. My current settings in dovecot related to performance are: mmap_diable = yes mmap_no_write = yes Modifying these to no seems to decrease performance slightly but only a few percent. I have also played with various other settings, which didn't give me any significant performance boost. I'm eager for the next release which will have the fsync_disable option to see if that help...

Is anyone using LDAP along with Dovecot where mail is being accessed in the form of /var/vmail/${domain}/${user}? I have not figured out how to extract the domain from LDAP in order to make this work. I know this is sparse information but maybe there is an easy fix. If not, I can post more information. Bryan
