dovecot died
Hello,
today our dovecot imap server died. The following message appeared in
the logfile:
dovecot: Mar 23 07:00:58 Error: pipe() failed: Too many open files
We have one dovecot instance for pop3 and one for imap, so while the
pop3-service was still available, the imap-service was not running any more.
I've seen a lots of users keeping there imap-connections idle for hours,
often more

dovecot through NFS
Hello,
as our mail server load increases every day, I plan to scale the single
mailserver in differnt units:
1x big storage server for all mailboxes, folders exported through NFS
1x smtp for mail-in (queue local, messages on storage server)
1x pop3/imap to retrieve the messages (config local, messages on storage
server)
Since we're using maildir only, there's no problem to get the

new configure-option --disable-index
Hello,
I experimented with dovecot the whole evening yesterday and the
mailserver worked fine since there haven't been that much users
connecting to it. I'm using dovecot 1.0.alpha5 as pop3 and pop3s server.
The maildirs are mounted through NFS and since there is no nfslockd
running I disabled mmap in the config and told dovecot to use dotlock.
Also I experienced, that dovecot was

nfs and pop3
Hi,
I'm working with dovecot 1.0.beta2 for pop3 only and have set
index=memory, so no indizes are created on the disk. pop3_uidl_format is
set to %f. The maildirs are located on an nfs-share.
So generally, this setup is very similar to what qmail-popup and
qmail-pop3d does. However, everytime I'm switching from qmail-pop3d to
dovecot, the system load increases from less than 2 to more

NoSQL Storage Backend
Hello,
I found a posting on the mailing list from 2008 "Adding new storage
backend to Dovecot" while searching for POP3 and IMAP servers, that
allow to use a NoSQL backend rather than a traditional file system.
The problem with traditional filesystems is, that they are very limited.
You cannot easily extend it, even with RAID 10 all messages may be lost
due to a RAID controller

error log?
Hello,
for some reason dovecot doesn't start up. I'm using the default values
in dovecot.conf, just changed the login_user, disabled ssl and ran
sbin/dovecot, but nothing happens. No error's, I can't find any logs, no
daemon anywhere, no ports bound... I don't know where to look and
whatfor. I compiled with --enable-debug, but there's no extra output.
Any ideas?

ftp:// error
Hello,
from a server where neither a rsync daemon nor ssh is running I'm trying
to backup the whole data with ftp. So my idea was to call rsync like this:
rsync -v -a 'ftp://1.2.3.4/' my_folder
But this gives me:
ftp: unknown host
ftp: unknown host
ftp: Unknown host
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far)

Dovecot vs. Courier-Imap
Hello,
I've heard of both and I already tested and installed both, but I'm not
sure which one is better, since both just seem to work and I can't see a
difference, except from the point how it's set up and configured. Where
are the drawbacks of each one, where are the benefits? I also tested
cyrus before, but cyrus is not working well with maildirs. I'm not that

index file vs. memory
Hello,
we have a large base of mailbox users and while pop3-connections are
usually closed after the download of all mails, I noticed hundrets of
imap-connections kept idle by the users. This is surely according to the
idea behind imap, but I'm a bit afraid of overwhelming memory
consumption if there are too many imap-connections opened at the same
time. Is the index file kept in memory

new-attrib lost when calling through pop3
Hi,
I noticed, that all messages are moved from new/ to cur/ (using
maildirs) after the authentication in pop3, even before the list
command. I'm working with 1.0-stable-20050426. Why is this done?
Shouldn't a message keep it's new-attrib as long as it isn't retrieved?
This is how it worked with qmail-pop3d. Through imap, it works
correctly. It's just sad if I can't

feature request: undeletable folders
Hello,
as we all know from the big webmail-services like hotmail.com,
yahoo.com, web.de and so on, several folders exist and nobody can remove
them for a good reason, because some services rely on them: Trash, Junk,
Sent. Can can't remove Trash, because every deleted message is just
moved here. You can't remove Junk, because all messages recognized as
spam is moved here. And you

pop3 retr error
Hello,
I'm getting the following error while Mozilla Mail is downloading >4000
emails:
The RETR command did not succeed. Error retrieving message. Mail server
xxx responded: Message is deleted.
So what's the error? Can't I retrieve a message, that has been marked as

be different. I don't know

feature request: login in process title
Hello,
I'm a bit afraid of users, the might slow down the server because of
search requests to the imap-server on very large mailboxes. Even with a
performant index, this could cause a lot of cpu and i/o-load. Is it
possible to include the login-name in the imap process, so that a "ps
ax" doesn't just give "imap", but e.g. "imap test at example.com"?

Testing pop3/imap4 and mdbox corrupted indexes?
I have two questions:
