...crad and gigabit switches. when I push the delete button in a mail I usualy have to wait 10,20 or 30 seconds (!!!) to deleted and show me the next one. dovecot eat so much io to the hard disk, that we can't do too much. currently at the same time about 100 clients are connected mostly with OE6. the server is a P4 server with 1GB ram and about 1TB hard disk. there is only one samba and dovecot on the server. and the load use to be something like this: ---------------------------------------- 10:47:38 up 3 days, 15:48, 2 users, load average: 4.64, 3.58, 3.43 230 processes: 225 sleep...

I'm using FreeBSD 4.8 with dovecot from the ports collection. First I am first trying to fetch mail via POP3. Clients are both OE6 and Mozilla. Both exhibit the same behavior: the client says it is receiving message 1 of (however many), but nothing happens; no message data is transferred. Mozilla seems to keep waiting forever, but OE6 times out after 60 seconds and lets me stop waiting. I tried both with and without SSL. Auth...

...cot.org/clients.html with the message: "Message is no longer available on this server" I have the following configuration: - Postfix as MTA (ver. 2.1), using the Maildir format to store messages. - Dovecot 0.99.10.4_2 serving POP3 and IMAP. Relevant dovecot config: client_workarounds = oe6-fetch-no-newmail outlook-idle default_mail_env = maildir:/%h/Maildir Something important is that I am using freebsd 4.9, and dovecot is installed from ports (/usr/ports/mail/dovecot) Does anyone has the solution for this problem, or at least an idea of what causes it? Regards, -Mauricio

My outlook express users connecting with imap are having issues with client timeout. The wiki says to add oe6-fetch-no-newmail, but when I add that workaround I get this error in the logs: Jun 2 10:00:13 mail dovecot: IMAP(username): Unknown client workaround: oe6-fetch-no-newmail I'm using 1.0b7. Any ideas?

...ad than the thread is usualy ok, but I'd like to see the the different threads sorted by date (as it was while using couirer or cyrus) but now it seems to me random:-(( it's very anoying. my be it's mozilla fault again, but may be mozilla use server side thread support. - in OE6 when we only select headers only sometime some message "disappear"! which means we see in OE6 a red line over the message (as it would be deleted), but no one delete it (yes I know you don't belive me, I also don't belive our users, but once I saw it). just click on it...

...e. (+0530 is > apparently the time zone of my workstation as configure above) Sorry for taking this long to reply, it always takes so much effort to turn on my Windows computer :) I cannot reproduce this. I have my server and workstation set to GMT+3 and copying message from Dovecot to OE6 local folder and back keeps the message date the same. Or actually it looks like IMAP -> local folder copies using the message's Date field rather than IMAP's INTERNALDATE which Received-field shows. I'm not sure if this could be Dovecot's or OE6's fault .. Has anyone else...

...64-bit, so what they hey, i'll build dovecot 64-bit as well. worked just fine, no issues at all. the setup is: Solaris 9/SPARC Sun C compiler Dovecot 0.99.14 after rebuilding it 64-bit, i now have a small problem however. I cannot save messages to IMAP folders from Mail.app on OSX 10.3.9. OE6 and mutt work fine, no problems there, but when I try to save a message from Mail.app, it tells me it couldn't save the message and i get the folloing in my log file on the mail server: May 19 16:24:37 wiggum.4amlunch.net imap(paula): [ID 702911 mail.error] utime() failed for /usr/home/paula/M...

Hi, This may be a problem with my config file but I am finding that customers (and more importantly my boss) that are using outlook express when using test66/67 (upgraded from test60 + from address patch) are having message reappear after being fully deleted (not just marked) but are unreadable, sometimes blank headers appear too but again no message. Since it is affecting my boss he has told me

...but they are not compatible!!! I have to set root directory to INBOX in courier while not for dovecot and this is a real big problem. is there any way to compile dovecot to use INBOX as a root directory? since in this case at least there is a chance to switch to courier without reconfigure 300 OE6. I try to help to find out the reason for the load in any way, but it seems to me than it's better to change to courier or cyrus since our users getting angry not to mention my boss. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

....0.0 beta3 or alpha4. I upgraded to Dovecot 1.0.0 to make sure that was not the issue. Over the past few weeks on a server running a stable dovecot, I have seem a few emails arriving where the MIME document structure dividers are visible. I've included a screenshot showing this. Using OE6 as client. Have tried adding oe6-fetch-no-newmail per clients wiki but this seems to stop the ability to login at all. I am using two different machines with Outlook Express to access the same email. The same problem will show up on both. Usually, if I delete the .imap cache for the folder,...

it seems that when you say "check for new mail" in apple mail, it sends a NOOP to the imap server to get the response. in uw, the conversation is something like: 25 NOOP 25 OK NOOP completed 26 NOOP * 2796 EXISTS * 7 RECENT 26 OK NOOP completed however, with dovecot, if it has already notified the client that new mail has arrived, it will look something like: * 24 EXISTS * 2 RECENT

...RECENT new mail notifications only when replying to NOOP # and CHECK commands. Some clients ignore them otherwise, for example OSX # Mail (<v2.1). Outlook Express breaks more badly though, without this it # may show user "Message no longer in server" errors. Note that OE6 still # breaks even with this workaround if synchronization is set to # "Headers Only". # tb-extra-mailbox-sep: # Thunderbird gets somehow confused with LAYOUT=fs (mbox and dbox) and # adds extra '/' suffixes to mailbox names.

...t; in their outlook or outlook express software, they get the same messages, as well as the new ones, over and over again. I use postfix + dovecot and only the pop3 protocol. My dovecot.conf has the following relevant entries default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u client_workarounds = oe6-fetch-no-newmail outlook-idle outlook-pop3-no-nuls mbox_locks = fcntl everything else is at default value. Also, we do not upgrade dovecot because it is not part of the upstream provider, and we do not want to break binary compatibility updates. Thanks for your guidance. -- ------------------...
