Another "Too many files open" post
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):

folders. It hung for a while but finally

Dovecot default inbox name?
I'm installing dovecot and migrating from mbox to maildir. I've read
several articles concerning this process but I can't seem to find the
answer to one particular question. What is the default name of the
inbox when using maildir format? I need to create this in advance for
each user and I don't know what dovecot is expecting for the inbox
directory name.

subscriptions or .subscriptions?
I may have found a problem with the documentation concerning the
subscriptions file. On the Dovecot web site there is a document that
outlines the conversion from UW IMAP to Dovecot. The document says
Dovecot's folder list is stored in ".subscriptions"
However, I have found that Dovecot's folder list is really
"subscriptions" without the preceding dot. Did

Problems with alpha3 + openssl-0.9.8
Has anybody successfully compiled alpha 3 with the newly released
openssl-0.9.8? I just wasted the weekend trying to get dovecot to
compile using the new openssl libs. Openssl-0.9.7d works like dream.
Just wanted to know if anybody had this combo working.

Maildir and counting inodes
I've been testing with alpha 3 and I am about ready to go production. I
am switching from mbox to maildir and I'd like to know if there is a
formula or rule of thumb for determining if your file system will have
enough inodes to handle all the mail message files.
I could write a script to look at each user's mbox files, count the
number messages and calculate the average number

maildir locking and 'racing'
hello Timo, list,
quick error-message question. A few of the accounts on my main
mailserver are failing to log in with errors like this:

if I log in by telnet everything is fine, and from the source it
looks like the error happens when dovecot fails to

Question on moving folders
Is there a way to move an imap subfolder up one level? I have a bad
mouse and every now and then I have accidentally dragged an imap folder
on top of another folder. I am unable to get the original folder back
up one level. I've tried using several clients and I can't get it to
work with dovecot. I keep getting a "folder already exists" message.
I'm guessing dovecot

Corrupted index cache file issues (Corrupted physical size)

I'm running Dovecot 1.1.13 on FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE and I'm receiving a

Corrupted transaction log file
Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem I need some pointers to debug.
I'm running Dovecot 2.0.15 and have a client which keeps causing
log-entries like:

Dovecot strange behaviors on Solaris
Folks -
I've been using Dovecot for some time now, but have only recently upgraded
to 1.0alpha4. I'm struggling to get my configuration right and I'm seeing
some truly bizarre issues.
My Setup: Solaris 2.8 / Thunderbird / Procmail / Dovecot 1.0alpha4
My mail setup is only for me, so Dovecot runs at an odd port and under my
userID. All my mail is in my home directory, which

1.0alpha1, multiple lock methods?
Hi,
I just upgraded from test80 to 1.0alpha1. I wanted to
try something new on the lock_method, so I set:
lock_method = fcntl, dotlock
I got syslog complaints like:
IMAP(username): Unknown lock_method: fcntl, dotlock
Can one specify multiple file locking mechanisms? If so,
what is the syntax (and can the syntax be shown in the
comments of the .conf file)?

Alpha4 pre-release, please upgrade
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:

Dovecot version: 2.2.31 (65cde28) (GhettoForge RPM)
Filesystem: GlusterFS, but working on changing that. Only one server is receiving activity.
Was getting messages about corrupt dovecot.map.index files. Changed to dotlock from fcntl to try to fix that.

nfs, dovecot, and maildirs

relevant patches (utime, etc)
Backend - netapp filer
End users - various clients all running IMAP
It looks like 1.0.beta8 is definately the way to go. I have a few questions
with regards to setup.

Corrupted index cache file dovecot.index.cache: invalid record size
Hi,
Our dovecot setup consists of two hosts running dovecot-1.0.beta9 with
Maildir/indices stored on NFS(noac,actimeo=0 used).
I am seeing these messages at times - but no real problems on the client
side. Is this something to worry about?

FreeBSD NFS file locking mechanism
Hi all,
I have some machines running FreeBSD and dovecot deployed. User's home
dir is on NFS mount and I've found that dovecot only works with
dotlock file locking mechanism, fcntl and flock failed. Now it causes
problem with thunderbird (thunderbird is cachine connections) waiting
forever and I noticed that dovecot is trying to acquire a lock but
unsuccessful since the lock file is in

High Load average on NFS Spool - v.2.1.15 & 2.2.13
I have two servers pointing to an NFS mounted mail spool with dovecot.?
Since I recently switched from using Dovecot v1.X, I have been
experiencing high CPU use with the two Dovecot servers. I am not certain
why they are not well behaved.? Here is the configuration information.
This configuration is currently running at a load average of 17.
