I switched for mbox to maildir last night and now searching folders isn't working. Getting a timeout. Is there something I might have forgot to configure?

Running the nightly from two days ago. The Dovecot log shows no errors, but I keep getting login errors for a few users. top shows: 71486 user1 1 96 0 4552K 2408K lockd 0 0:00 0.00% imap 11170 user2 1 96 0 4440K 2480K lockd 0 0:00 0.00% imap And a ps aux shows that these processes have been open for hours. If I move the mbox that contains their mail, the same

It seems deliver is taking up a lot of cpu. Is there a way to throttle just the delivery command?

dovecot 0.99 still (RHEL4), I'm sorry to say. The config is for mbox's to live on the user's home disk. If the user tries to make an imap connection when his home disk is unmounted, various permission denied messages are logged, as expected, but then the imap process seems to hang around instead of aborting. The result is that eventually the imap process limit is reached, and even

I'm looking forward to figuring out how to allow users to have access to (old) email in mbox format, an have all new mailboxes go to maildirs....

Hi, I have a dovect 1.0.15 on my mailserver and as a Client I use offlineimap. Since some time now my mailsynchronisation got slow - I don't know exactly where the problem is, but I tried to track it down. Usually the UID-Searches are fast (according to the offlineimap-debugging) but as soon as it comes to big folders it takes a long time: [..] DEBUG[imap]: 37:15.22 < * 1

Hello, I am no programmer at all. I have dovecot set up on two very similar machines. On one of the boxes, the dovecot server has recently been showing slower response times. It feels slower. Where it is slower, dovecot works as an auth server for postfix. I have replaced exim with postfix on that box and I think since then dovecot started to slow down. On the other machine the MTA is exim.

Hi, I've got a problem with dovecot on an Intel Mac OSX box. Basically, I was running an older verion (0.8.?, I think), and everything was fine. Then, when I upgraded to 1.0.0 via MacPorts, I found that periodically the system gets into a state where it simply stops dealing with IMAP requests. This tends to manifest itself as Thunderbird simply stalling, not fetching any new

Hi, Have encountered some strange behavior of dovecot: after few days of work (5-7 days, ~50 users, imap over ssl or tls) dovecot stops respond with "* OK Dovecot ready.". I.e. connection gets accepted, but no response from dovecot: [ivan at dyn-226 bin]$ telnet imap 143 Trying 192.168.100.9... Connected to imap.n-ix.com.ua (192.168.100.9). Escape character is '^]'. while

Hi guys, I inherited a Dovecot 1.0.1, which I will have to upgrade, but until then I need, if possible, to resolve a timeout. - we have about 25 IMAP users - the busiest user has about 100 000 messages (Maildir) in less than 100 folders - the mail server is on HP server with server grade 2.5" HDDs in RAID 5 - the load average of the server is low (the 5/15 minute is under 0.20) - the mail

Hi, I'm currently facing a strange behaviour of dovecot 1.2.10 (and before): after some days the login into our mail servers stops working for imap-connections. pop3-users can go on with using dovecot. Looking into the logfile I can only find: [...] imap-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts) imap-login: Disconnected: Shutting down (no auth attempts) [...] as a hint what is maybe happening.

Hi! I'm using rc10, but had this problem with previous releases too. Not sure if this is a dovecot problem, but I can not think of anything else. The mail downloading with pop3 is ~very slow, approx. 20 Kbyte / sec. no matter how many mails I've got in my mailbox, or how big are the mails. My ISP provides me a dedicated 100mbit line, and everything else works as fast as expected eg.

Hello, and thank you in advance for your valuable time. I am running Dovecot v1.0.rc15 on an OpenBSD 3.9 i386 machine (no time to upgrade yet). I downloaded the source from the dovecot site, compiled and installed without any problem. The server starts up find and runs for a while. After a few hours to a few days, the server stops sending the CAPABILITY statement when a client tries to

Hello! I'm trying for a lot of time to make managesieve working with dovecot 1.1.17 and virtual users on openSuSE 11.1. I think I'm doing some misconfiguration, but I can't figure it out. Perhaps it's something with the paths to the sieve scripts? In dovecot.conf I find in the comments: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ protocol

I have migrated from dovecot 1.2 to dovecot 2.0.

Please help, Dovecot is running extremely slow for the last couple of weeks and it seems to be getting worse (or my patience running short). I attach the 10-master configuration and the log file after running strace according to: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/ProcessTracing I can click on an email and wait for a minute or more before receiving a connection dropped or no error at all. I use many clients (thunderbird, windows 8 mail, maildroid for android, squirrelmail) and they all have similar behavior. It happens both in the inbox and on imap subfolders. Somet...
