similar to: RC10 errors

(Background: Relatively new to dovecot; looking to do transparent replacement of long-established UW-IMAP on cluster of Linux boxes which NFS-mount a shared "/var/spool/mail".) With rc8, where I had already increased "login_max_processes_count" from default 128 to 1024, we had still hit the issue of too many logins crashing dovecot, so that trial had only lasted a couple of

I recently upgraded dovecot from 1.0.15 to 1.1.2 and since then I am getting the following types of things in the logs: Aug 21 17:23:13 mail1 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<myuser>, method=PLAIN, rip=172.16.78.20, lip=172.16.78.22 Aug 21 17:24:01 mail1 dovecot: Panic: IMAP(myuser): file index-sync.c: line 39 (index_mailbox_set_recent_uid): assertion failed:

Hi, I recently switched to using dovecot for my IMAP server. I'm running dovecot 1.0rc10 on redhat linux 7.3. The filesystem is ext2, not NFS. I'm using mbox for mail storage. It worked okay for a day or two, but now when I try to check my mail I get an error from evolution, my imap client, saying that the server unexpectedly disconnected. In the server logs I see: Nov 2 13:10:49

Some days ago I wrote about an inaccessible mailbox after an upgrade from 0.99.14 to 1.0rc10. Today I get this problem with another mailbox but it seems to be it is not only related to the upgrade : - user comes back from holiday, does not see his inbox : dovecot: Oct 24 18:51:09 Error: IMAP(abcd): file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 405 (mbox_sync_read_and_move): assertion failed: (need_space ==

Hi, This small mail to share my observation about a recent move of mailboxes between two servers and ask about explanation and/or improvement about UIDL in dovecot. SV1 : Dovecot 0.99.14 / Red Hat Fedore Core 4 SV2 : Dovecot 1.07 / CentOS 5.2 Mailboxes in /var/spool/mail on the twoo servers. Test will be done with outlook express with option "leave message on server" checked. Goal is

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

Hi, On the weekend I tried to upgrade from RC7 to RC10. Clearly, I have to change some things before I can do this. What does it take to get to RC10? As is, my mail client got an error trying to list messages in /INBOX (via IMAP) and the mail.err log shows the following messages: Oct 29 10:27:32 siona dovecot: IMAP(archangel): open(/var/mail/archangel/inbox, O_CREAT) failed: Not a

I just upgraded our test server from rc6 to rc10... ISSUE #1 I noticed that we no longer are getting two "From_" lines. However, the one that was good (had the original sender e-mail address) is now gone. The one with "dovecot.deliver" remains. I attempted to add "-d test" to the mailbox_command line in main.cf as follows: mailbox_command =

I updated to the latest rc25 and started getting these messages(over and over again). This is on a Solaris 10 box and I tried compiling with gcc and sun c. I backed down to rc23 and the messages went away and everything works. Any body have an idea on what could be wrong? thank you dovecot: Mar 04 21:14:33 Error: child 467 (imap) killed with signal 6 dovecot: Mar 04 21:14:33 Error:

Timo, I see where at least one other person reported this, but here goes. I went from rc24 to rc25 this morning, and I got an assert and core from my own mailbox withing five minutes: Mar 2 06:52:26 karst dovecot: [ID 107833 mail.error] IMAP(jaearick): file mbox-sync-rewrite.c: line 408: assertion failed: (need_space == (uoff_t)-mails[idx].space) Mar 2 06:52:26 karst dovecot: [ID 107833

I don't recall if I mentioned this on the list, but when you are configured with mbox format, and a user has no Dovecot index files yet, and the config is such that mbox_min_index_size is set to non-zero, non-default (128 in my test case), dovecot deliver fails. Commenting out "mbox_min_index_size" fixed the problem, and the indexes then get created. This problems exists in RC10 --

Hi Folks, How scalable is dovecot. Do you think a machine with a dual core 2.8Ghz processor and 2GB of RAM would do a business with 600 users? This server will have a 100Mbps link to the net, however it will be access by the business using a couple of ADSL lines (Roughly 7Mbps each). This machine will also be running Postfix Your help is appreciated Cheers Jonny

Hi everyone! What's the best filesystem to use for the mail spool? I'm debating between Debian with xfs or FreeBSD with zfs. I'm not sure which way to go. I'm migrating from cyrus. I have about 50 users so it's not a large setup. Cheers! Monika -- Monika Janek Systems Administrator, Side Effects Software Toronto, Ontario Canada 416-504-9876 x207 www.sidefx.com

I am migrating from UW to dovecot and using mbox. I have been able to find mbox to maildir migration information and tools; however, I have had little luck finding any tool or information for performing such a migration where I wish to keep mbox. ( I know I should migrate to MailDir, but in the case I wish to take baby steps.) I have setup dovecot pop3 communication and I go to my email client
