...w me to keep the same user on the same dovecot server. Now, I have some NFS issues with high percentages of getattr() . If I understood well, the cache must be disabled, because of the case of 2 differents computers could log on the same time and mess up the index file . If I use the directive pop3_lock_session and enable it, that should block conccurent pop3 access using a lock file . Can I consider it safe enough to turn on the NFS cache (ie removing actimeo=0) ? Thanks in advance Salim Ps: For you info, we use dovecot here for a big cable broadband ISP, with 2,000,000 mailboxes using 30 doveco...

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

...ng IMAP sessions, incoming messages are deilvered tot he user's INBOX without delay. But with POP, the MDA times out and the messages go back to sendmail's queue for later delivery. We though this setting would address the issue: # Keep the mailbox locked for the entire POP3 session. pop3_lock_session = no But it doesn't seem to. Any ideas?

Hi, So I've been through google and the dovecot source and have not yet found a reasonable explanation for the 'Timeout while waiting for lock' error. My customer's configuration is utilizes mbox with the following mbox configs. [snip] pop3_lock_session = yes mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks = fcntl mbox_lock_timeout = 300 [/snip] I see from the source that this error can occur in one of two places: mbox_lock_dotlock() mbox_update_locking() Given my customer is using fcntl locking I automatically assume that it is the later where t...

I have a problem I can't seem to fix. I have dovecot configured to do POP3 with plain text authentication using a MySQL database. I am using Dovecot 1.0.7 with fcntl locking. My problem has been when an iPhone/iPod checks email. The iPhone/iPod doesn't disconnect with a TCP FIN packet and it leaves the mailbox in a locked state and prevents the user's desktop from checking
