Hi, I sometimes got the following log entries with dovecot 1.1.11 : mail.err: Feb 27 10:06:54 dovecot: IMAP(hidden at email.com): write(dnotify pipe) failed: Bad file descriptor mail.err: Feb 27 10:06:54 dovecot: IMAP(hidden at email.com): close(dnotify pipe[0]) failed: Bad file descriptor mail.err: Feb 27 10:06:54 dovecot: IMAP(hidden at email.com): close(dnotify pipe[1]) failed: Bad

Hi, I am compiling dovecot and I found dnotify & inotify. What does dnotify or inotify do ? do i need it. Thanks

Hey, I noticed that there was an ioloop "module" (if we can call it that) for select and poll and decided to add one for kqueue (aka kevent) BSDs high performance descriptor multiplexing API. I haven't done any of the configure glue stuff but the code is complete and works well. kqueue is available on all recent versions of FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD and Darwin (and therefore MacOS

Hi, today I have built dovecot from cvs sources, and upgraded server from beta-7 to this newer version. Then i got problems with opening INBOX using thunderbird 1.5.0.2. The client says "Opening folder...", then, after about half a minute, blinking "connecting to the server" and returning to "Opening folder..." /var/log/maillog gets the messages: --- Jun 22

I got lots of errors that look like this: Error: write(dnotify pipe) failed: Bad file descriptor I am running dovecot-1.2.4-0_99 on RHEL4 dovecot -n: # 1.2.4: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.9-89.0.3.ELsmp x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8) ext3 log_path: /var/log/dovecot info_log_path: /var/log/dovecot-info login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login

Hi, I recently switched from courier imap to dovecot. With courier I had a working IDLE setup that informed me immediately when new mail arrived. With Dovecot it is different, sometimes i get an immediate result but most of the time it takes a rather long time for the notification to return to the client. For testing purposes I set mailbox_idle_check_interval = 1 and i now get the same

I've been researching the state of 'file alteration monitoring' technology on Linux. Famd uses dnotify to inefficently monitor a handful of directories. The replacement for dnotify is being worked on in the kenel and it's called inotify. If I understand it correctly and they get it finished, it would be an awesome addition to rsync. With it, you could run rsync to update a

I'm not sure if this question makes sense, but here goes. We have the need to periodically check for newly created/modified files in a rather elaborate and well populated directory structure. I don't believe that simply walking the directory and checking stat's is the answer, given that I need a process that will impose minimal performance degredation on the system. Would it be

Hello, I use Thunderbird as IMAP client and do a lot of server-side filtering with Sieve scripts. To be notified of new mails, I want to check all folders (a lot of them...) at once for new mails, and not only the inbox. According to http://kb.mozillazine.org/Checking_for_new_messages_in_other_folders_-_Thunderbird it should be sufficient to enable one setting -- given that the IMAP server

Hi there We have a Samba-based "upload server" where people put files to be processed. Anyway, when they upload files, a Unix-based script runs and moves the files off. However, the Windows explorer app doesn't "notice" the removal, and the user still sees the files. If they F5/refresh explorer, the files indeed have disappeared. If I have two explorer windows open

After successful testing on our 32-bit machine using the rpm, I'm installing dovecot on our Fedora 64-bit machine using that rpm. In the log file I get: dovecot: Mar 31 15:34:16 Error: auth(default): Unknown database driver 'mysql' I see this: # dovecot --build-options Build options: ioloop=poll dnotify ipv6 openssl Passdb: checkpassword pam passwd passwd-file shadow Userdb:

Hi, all! I'm new to Dovecot and I try to compile it to allow GSSAPI authentication. Unfortunately, configure says me always: Install prefix ...................... : /usr/local File offsets ........................ : 64bit I/O loop method ..................... : poll File change notification method ..... : dnotify Building with SSL support ........... : yes (OpenSSL) Building with IPv6

Hello. About year ago I tested OE and dovecot imap and met this problem (http://wiki.dovecot.org/Clients#head-129bcbfc238b5c34362b8216db87c05e7a34af85) - Using "Headers only" synchronization is buggy and can cause "Message is no longer available on this server" error when opening a mail. I configured OE to sync All messages, and it worked, but then it's acts like pop3 and

Hi, I am trying to synchronise two directories on separate machines across a network using rsync, but I want to apply rsync whenever the contents of the directories are altered, rather than using a cron job. Does anyone have any ideas? We are running Redhat9.0. Thanks Henry

hello hpa, pushed out new patch queue :) It contains the sync with latest dash git, renaming of some README's to ease their packaging, sparc32 socket test and a sh4 fix by Debian porters (numbers of changes is huge, but mostly contained in dash). git pull git://git.debian.org/users/maks/klibc.git maks initramfs-tools seems happy with that version of dash, saw no regression on boot test with

Hello, I try to compile dovecot in Version 2.0.11 with ssl support on a CentOS 4.5 system.

I am having a problem with the configure script for Dovecot 1.0b8. It doesn't seem to be compiling in sql engine driver support. I have specified --with-sql and --with-pgsql but when the script is done it says "Building with SQL drivers ..............:" but lists no drivers afterwards. I tried compiling it anyway but it logs the error " auth(default): Unknown database driver
