[dovecot-1.0-0.beta2.7 on Fedora Core 5, maildir formatted mail directories, various clients: thunderbird 1.5.0.4 from FC4 and WinXP, SquirrelMail 1.4.6-5.fc5 RPM, various recent versions of Pine from various Fedoras and Redhat 9] I have just one mail user who experiences server timeouts when trying to delete a message (move it to Trash) or other common operations. This user has 4.1GB of

Hello all i have postfix running with dovecot-sasl and mysql as a backend. It all runs good. I run into trouble as where outlook 2003 fails to authenticate when sending e-mail. I have thunderbird outlook2007 and 2003 clients. The tunderbird and 2007 clients are working OK, the outlook2003 client get the relay access denied message. In the postfix log i see it is not initiating sasl they all

Hi List, I set up a ctdb cluster a couple months back. Things seemed pretty solid for the first 2-3 weeks, but then I started getting reports of people not being able to access files, or some times directories. It has taken me a while to figure some stuff out, but it seems the common denominator to this happening is vacuuming timeouts for locking.tdb in the ctdb log, which might go on

Hi, I''m looking at a system hang on a large box: 160 cpus, 2TB. Dom0 is booted with 160 vcpus (don''t ask me why :)), and an HVM guest is started with over 1.5T RAM and 128 vcpus. The system hangs without much activity after couple hours. Xen 4.0.2 and 2.6.32 based 64bit dom0. During hang I discovered: Most of dom0 vcpus are in double_lock_balance spinning on one of the locks:

Hi, This occurred again this morning, when the user reported the problem, I found in the ctdb logs that vacuuming has been going on since last night. The need to fix it was urgent (when isn't it?) so I didn't have time to poke around for clues, but immediately restarted the lxc container. But this time it wouldn't restart, which I had time to trace to a hung smbd process, and

Hello, i have some questions about the new dovecot replication and mdbox format. my company has currently 3 old dovecot 2.0.x fileserver/backend with ca. 120k mailboxes and ca. 6 TB data used. They are synchronised per drbd/corosync. Each fileserver/backend have ca. 40k mailboxes im Maildir format. Our MX server is delivering ca. 30 GB new mails per day. Two IMAP proxy server get the

Hello again, all. Of course after posting yesterday that all was well with my setup, turns out all is not well. The problem I'm having is with dovecot-lda functioning and making deliveries to my mailbox, but the sieve scripts don't seem to have any effect. Attempts at logging what is/isn't happening have been total failures. Managesieve seems to work fine, port 4190 is open on the

christian the servers i currently own are dell servers. The servers i plan to buy are Dell R530, 2U rack servers with 8 x 3.5 inch drives, with 64 gb ram each, Hardware raid. I am thinking of 2 X 300 gb ssds raid1 and 6 x 2 tb drives in raid10 for data. I do not have any experience in setting up drdb (that would be my next step) ... primarily using standalone servers with hardware level

I switched for mbox to maildir last night and now searching folders isn't working. Getting a timeout. Is there something I might have forgot to configure?

Running the nightly from two days ago. The Dovecot log shows no errors, but I keep getting login errors for a few users. top shows: 71486 user1 1 96 0 4552K 2408K lockd 0 0:00 0.00% imap 11170 user2 1 96 0 4440K 2480K lockd 0 0:00 0.00% imap And a ps aux shows that these processes have been open for hours. If I move the mbox that contains their mail, the same

It seems deliver is taking up a lot of cpu. Is there a way to throttle just the delivery command?

dovecot 0.99 still (RHEL4), I'm sorry to say. The config is for mbox's to live on the user's home disk. If the user tries to make an imap connection when his home disk is unmounted, various permission denied messages are logged, as expected, but then the imap process seems to hang around instead of aborting. The result is that eventually the imap process limit is reached, and even

This may expose my ignorance, but here goes :) I've been asked to figure out how much bandwidth would be needed to handle 1,000,000 minutes a month. Here's the environment: ) All calls are received via SIP. ) All calls use the ulaw codec. ) Calls average 10 minutes in duration. ) The "busiest" hour will account for 10% of the daily total. This is how I'm figuring

I installed a Centos 4.x system using a lvm install across four HDDs. It is my first install using LVM. System had a power-failure and stopped booting up. A new trainee simply took out the HDDs and restarted the file-server on a fresh HDDs. Now the problemis that the four HDDs have data. But the order of the HDDs (of install....1st primary, 2nd primary etc.) is unknown. Earlier we used to boot

Hi, Need to implement hunting (create a hunt group so my subscribers can have a single GSM number for access to me)of GSM SIMs on a GSM bank independent of the Telco for the SIMs. Anyone got an EXACT idea how to do this?

G'day ... Altho it is rare, we are getting union_lookup panics on our server(s) ... as most on this list already know, we make heavy use of unionfs to share between jails, and I already know that this is the "kernel side" cause of the problem ... but ... From what I can tell, though, the "trigger" for the panic is pkg_delete ... if I build a jail'd environment,

Hi, I'm having a problem where one of the VM's I'm running appears to be hanging. I think what might be happening is that the disk is timing out and being mounted read-only (or something like that). The VM image is on an iSCSI volume. What timeouts are set for iSCSI on the node? I seem to recall it being either 30 seconds or 2 minutes but I haven't been able to confirm.
