similar to: maildir locking and 'racing'

Anybody know what this racing error means? I've got hundreds of them in my Dovecot log file. I tried to search the archives but couldn't find a search link. Nothing on Google search either. dovecot: Aug 30 16:55:54 Error: IMAP(testuser): maildir_file_do(/export/home/testuser/mail) racing -- Andy Cravens

hello, Sorry to jump straight in with a question, but I've searched the archive[0] and I'm pretty sure the answer's not there. I'm using dovecot to replace courier imap, so authentication is by vpopmail and the Maildirs are stored in the usual domains/domain/user/ Maildir. Everything seems to work very well, and setting it up has been easy, so thank you very much for that.

I just upgraded from alpha 3 to alpha 4 and now I'm getting these errors: dovecot: Nov 28 16:17:37 Info: Dovecot v1.0.alpha4 starting up dovecot: Nov 28 16:20:11 Info: imap-login: Login: user=<jdoe>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, TLS dovecot: Nov 28 16:20:13 Info: imap-login: Login: user=<jdoe>, method=PLAIN, rip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, lip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,

Hi all! First of all, I want ti thank the whole Dovecot community (developers for developing and fast responses, users for populating and responses too). Dovecot is a really good and fast IMAP server - it serves near 3000 in our installation. Now I have a problem and request community's help its resolving;) Dovecot version: 1.0.13, compiled with vpopmail support. I have an account spam at

Hello, I'm migrating many accounts to a new server with vpopmail 5.4.33 and dovecot 2.0.11. I've already vpopmail 5.4.32 and dovecot 1.2.16 on others servers running without problems. With dovecot 2.0.11 my lastauth file is not updated. This file usually is update on any access (smtp, pop3, imap) with the client's IP, for every mailbox. Now it's updated only when a client

Hello folks, This morning I tried to open an old archive mail folder using Mutt. However, while fetching headers it aborted. Checking the dovecot log gave me this: @400000004fb21996267d37d4 imap(benv): Error: Cached message size smaller than expected (9115 < 9420) @400000004fb21996267e8bac imap(benv): Error: Maildir filename has wrong S value, renamed the file from

I upgraded a 1.0 install to 1.1b3. Almost everything is working peachy-keen :) It seems faster to me, Offline Folders and 'new mail' options for Thunderbird are now working, and Mail.App doesn't seem to need the extra namespace. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to read my quotas any longer. I went through the docs, and I see the quota plugin has changed, but there doesn't

I'm using alpha 5 and I'm getting "Corrupted index cache files" errors on one user's account. I found several posts in the mail archives on this subject and concluded from the responses that it's not a serious problem because Dovecot can deal with it. I deleted the index files and they were recreated but the error persists. The end user did not notice any problem

Hello, I am running Dovecot 0.99 on OpenSuse 10.0. Previously, I was running courier IMAP with vpopmail on Suse 9.3. In the process of the change, I decided to sing MySQL to authenticate the users, provide home dir, uid and gid. I tar'ed up the old mail directories, moved them to the new server, added a new user and group to own the files, set the files uid/gid to match the values in the

Hi, the affected machine is running 2.2.13 on Gentoo x86_64. For me it looks like the old size is still in some struct or whereever even after the file has been renamed. I see that there are many commits following 2.2.13, is that possibly already fixed or do I need to dig in the code? The original problem seems to be that maildrop uses the file size before piping the mail into spamassassin

Hi, I have a Mailserver setup with Qmail+Vpopmail+courier-imap with 2000 users.The authentication in vpopmail was in plaint text file based.Right now the issue is while opening a user email box with 50-100 mails it is opening fastly.Butfor email-boxes with attachments and increased number of mails it take long time to open the Imap connection. So I would like to change the Imaps to Dovecot.Please

I can't get dovecot to ignore a certain directory/namespace when calculating quotas. I am running dovecot 1.2.16 with vpopmail configured for quotas. I use the dot (.) as my separator and my user structure is as follows: ../domain.com/user/Maildir for all the user directories I also have for each user: ../domain.com/user/Maildir/Archive which is a symlink to a NFS mounted

Hi, I just installed dovecot 1.1.11 and am having some issues. Mail appears to be delivered to the Maildirs just fine, but when a client (Thunderbird) tries to retrieve them I get this: dovecot: IMAP(info at aedisit.com): maildir_file_do(/var/mail/ > aedisit.com/info/cur/1251566335.V14I27a91M380600.kim): Filename keeps > changing After turning on mail debug mode, I get this: Aug 29

Hi all. We've just migrated our back-end NFS mailstore from FC1 systems to CentOS4 and are experiencing problems/delays with vpopmail and user Maildirs. IMAP is fine, it's just POP access that causes us problems. Now, NFS mounts successfully, the clients can see /home/vpopmail and serve content as we would expect. IMAP works perfectly and sees new messages as soon as they're

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

Hi, I'm building dovecot.src.rpm with vpopmail support and I get this error: if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../src/lib -I../../src/lib-sql -I../../src/lib-settings -I../../src/lib-ntlm -DAUTH_MODULE_DIR=\""/usr/lib/dovecot/auth"\" -DPKG_LIBEXECDIR=\""/usr/libexec/dovecot"\" -I/home/vpopmail/include -std=gnu99 -O2 -g -march=i686 -Wall

Hi Aki and Remo, switch from vpopmail driver to SQL driver (if you are using vpopmail with mysql as backend) is very simple. First you need to setup the right query for vpopmail database: # cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext ### Vpopmail driver = mysql connect = host=192.168.1.2 dbname=vpopmail user=vpopmail password=Vp0pM4iL default_pass_scheme = MD5-CRYPT ### Query to get a list of all
