similar to: alpha4 and zlib-plugin?

I'm running Solaris 9 Sparc with Dovecot alpha 5 and using maildir format.. I noticed in the log file the following error: dovecot: Dec 20 15:54:18 Error: imap(xxxxxxxx): open(/export/home/xxxxxxxx/mail/.Sent Messages/cur/1135013649.002916.mbox:2,Sab) failed: Too many open files I called the guy and asked him what he was doing... synching his folders. It hung for a while but finally

Hi, My setup: Solaris 9, /var/mail is NFS mounted from another Solaris 9 box, home directories and dovecot index stuff is on local ufs filesystems. I upgraded from alpha4 to a5 about 36 hours ago. Dovecot is configured like so during the build: VERSION=1.0.alpha5 CC=gcc CFLAGS="-g -O" CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/openssl/include LDFLAGS=-L/opt/openssl/lib \ ./configure

Timo, The comments in dovecot-example.conf regarding lock_method for Solaris users needs to note your change. Your changelog says: - Default lock_method changed to flock instead of the old fcntl. Solaris users will need to set it back to fcntl. This makes sure that Dovecot's indexes aren't accidentally used with NFS. But there is no warning about this in the file for Solaris users.

Timo, I upgraded from alpha3 to alpha4 yesterday, and I am seeing a few of the following asserts: imap(user): file mbox-lock.c: line 379 (mbox_lock_fcntl): assertion failed: (lock_type == F_UNLCK) Gdb info on a couple of the cores is attached. It looks like the arg lock_type for mbox_lock_fcntl() is not getting passed in correctly, like the enum "enum mbox_lock_type type" in

Hi, i have 2 dovecot imap server running on solaris 10 The primary server with dovecot 1.0.alpha4 is running with best performance on Sun Sparc E4k5 with 8x 450MHz The secondary with rc10 has ugly performanceproblems on Sun E450 wth 4x 450MHz. Every new imap process takes permanent 25% cpu usage List the folder and fetch message are both slowy! Both servers are configred with ldap backend

Please try if http://dovecot.org/nightly/dovecot-latest.tar.gz (or the CVS directly) works with you. I made a lot of changes to dovecot-auth, so I wouldn't want to make alpha4 release without some more testing in different environments. I'll release alpha4 in a few days, but it'll be basically same as this unless more bugs get fixed. Some of the changes include: - IMAP: We might

The actual alpha4 release this time. With a few changes since the pre-release. The important changes again: - Default lock_method changed to flock instead of the old fcntl. Solaris users will need to set it back to fcntl. This makes sure that Dovecot's indexes aren't accidentally used with NFS. - IMAP: We might have sent extra EXPUNGE messages when output buffer got full. This could

Be careful. The next release will hopefully be v1.2.beta1 with a feature freeze. Most importantly shared mailboxes and IMAP ACLs are finally

Hello, it seems that there is some bug in authentication cache code in dovecot version 1.1.alpha4 - after login attempt with wrong password the correct password also will fail. I can reproduce it very easy: $telnet 10.10.10.30 110 +OK Server. <861.2.46e6c679.jZ8QYpFmU8ZN6XIq7zPhkw==@server2> user testuser +OK pass pass +OK Logged in. quit +OK Logging out. Connection closed by foreign host.

Hi The performance issues I noticed on my system/setup with Alpha3 seem to be gone with Alpha4. As soon as I installed it I noticed imap seemed more responsive. Just thought I would let the list know. Regards Daniel

Does anybody see this?

FWIW,

hi, For some of our customers we provide a pop3 access, and after an upgrade to alpha3, it is not working anymore. All of our data is ldap based and everything is working as before for our IMAP customers, but our POP3 users fail. Obviously the pop3 login process does not read the data correctly that comes from ldap. after enabling mail_debug, I saw the following error in our log:

Hi all, I've a problem with prefetch userdb function on 1.0.alpha4 ? I get this : Error: auth(default): ldap(mylogin,10.3.245.xxx): Multiple password replies Info: auth(default): ldap(mylogin,10.3.245.xxx): base=dc=boursorama,dc=fr scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass= boursoramaMailAccount)(mailInternalAllowedProtocol=imap)) fields=uid,userPassword An ldapsearch with the same

My IMAP client hangs intermittently. When it does, Dovecot has prematurely stopped sending a response and entered the poll loop. My client is waiting for more data and Dovecot is waiting for an IMAP command. This problem seems to occur when I connect to the dovecot process over the network and when I run the imap binary directly via an SSH tunnel. Below is truss output from the imap process

Hi, I can't seem to figure this out. Is it impossible to use two different ldap auth? It works if I use one ldap and one pam, but I do need to use ldap for both. This is from my config: auth default { mechanisms = plain passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/ldap-virtual.conf } passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb ldap { args =

Currently dbox works properly only in one-message-per-file mode. I'm not actually even sure how good idea it would be to use it with multiple-messages-per-file mode. But I guess it won't hurt to

Help... Dovecot 1.0alpha1 hung up today with nothing working and the following spewing to my syslog: pipe() failed: Too many open files My setup: Solaris 9, just using imap, mbox format.

Hi, Could you say a few words about Dovecot and POP/IMAP to an NFS mounted filesystem? I thought I saw on the dovecot webpage that NFS is "no way" with 0.99 and "maybe" with 1.x. I was looking for the FAQ and couldn't find it. My setup is like so: My mail server is a Solaris 9 system, running sendmail/procmail, and qpopper POP. Mail is stored in mbox format. The
