similar to: mdbox nightly cronjob

So with "fts_autoindex=yes" enabled in plugins, is there anything I should be running regularly, other than the expunge/purge, to ensure Solr indexes are updated? I have a daily Solr optimize, and Solr autocommit enabled. I have an hourly "doveadm index -A *" command - is that unneeded? -- Daniel On 4/12/2015 6:53 AM, Timo Sirainen wrote: > On 10 Apr 2015, at 21:55,

Why things happen is one of the great mysteries and joys of being a sysadmin... As for cleaning up SIS, I believe the "doveadm purge" command takes care of it. I have a daily cronjob which includes: #!/bin/sh # Permanently expunge old Trash doveadm expunge -A mailbox Trash savedbefore 2w # Optimize mdbox storage doveadm purge -A # Update fts indexes doveadm fts rescan -A -- Daniel

Hi, I'm testing Dovecot 2.0rc2 with mdbox mail format and I'm not sure what this exactly means: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/dbox Quote from wiki page: ===== Expunging a message only decreases the message's refcount. The space is later freed in "purge" step. This may be done automatically within the session or later in a nightly cronjob when there's less

To a degree I agree .. given mdbox doesnt delete until purge .. but then would be nice if purge took a dovecot search rather than just ditch everything with refcount=0 ... in that way could say purge everything thats been marked as delete according to a specified criteria. rgds Matt completly unrelated moved mailserver back home and listed on cyren so atm getting bounced by dovecot.fi .. have

Hello, I'm facing an issue where deleted emails keep re-appearing after my mailbox index gets recreated.??I'm running version 2.2.36 of dovecot, but I tested the same scenario under 2.3.10. I'm also using mdbox, autoexpunge, and using dovecot replication. I've had several instances now where some expunged emails show up again in a mailbox. I noticed this error: doveadm: Error:

But is that not adviced in the manual[1]? I am also in the process of setting up dovecot behind a haproxy. Still testing with this. I was wondering why one would choose haproxy and not eg dovecot proxy (with director) [1] https://wiki2.dovecot.org/HAProxy -----Original Message----- From: Zelic Bojan [mailto:bojan.zelic at kudelskisecurity.com] Sent: woensdag 26 augustus 2020 23:39 To:

Shot in the dark here...haven't tried it myself so no promises. There's probably a much better way to do this but sometimes a little "brute force" helps. Theoretical steps: 1. Stop all mail processes - both SMTP and IMAP. 2. Use "doveadm sync" to backup the user mailbox, e.g., doveadm backup -u user mdbox:/tmp/usermail 3. Verify /tmp/usermail looks reasonable

Hi, After reading the following paragraph from the dovecot doc, I've been wondering how it would affect rsync (when combined with gzip): "Expunging a message only decreases the message's refcount. The space is later freed in "purge" step. This is typically done in a nightly cronjob when there's less disk I/O activity. The purging first finds all files that have

Yesterday I had to recover an e-mail which a user had deleted. If I understand this correctly the message was expunged but not purged (doveadm purge had not been run). This e-mail was clearly still in the mdbox stored with zlib compression as I could tell using the doveadm dump command (doveadm dump -t dbox filename). I could however not reveal the e-mail with the normal doveadm fetch -u

Hi Timo, we are currently running dovecot 2.1.10 using mdbox storage. Sometimes we get requests from users to restore accidentally deleted mails. If the mails got deleted before a backup was made, such mails could of course not be restored from backup. One option to help users in this respect would be to use the lazy expunge plugin. On the other hand I have seen, that the deleted mails stay

Hello. I tested dovecot's work with expunge messages on Mdbox over strace (see at tail of message). As I can see dovecot process opens old storage m.* file, reads it content, opens new temporary file, writes in this one content and rename this new one to m.(*+1). How fast this algorithm works on system with about 10000 users and 5Tb data? I will use mdbox_rotate_interval for delayed expunge

Hello Is it a bug in lazy expunge plugin or am I missing something?

I have some users where I'd like to expunge their mail at different times. For example, I may have some users who I want to expunge everything from every folder at 30 days. Others where I'd like to expunge everything at 90 days. And still others where I only want to expunge mail from the Trash and Junk folders, and nowhere else. Is there a way to do some sort of lookup for this? Or

Hello, I am using dovecot with mdbox+sis and I notice an ever increasing disk space usage since I converted mailboxes from Maildir to mdboxes. I have checked with a user and while it actually uses only 65K, his mdbox files on disk are more than 6G. The backup of his mailbox is just 64K. Any suggestions ? Below are some relevant commands: [root at mail ~]# doveadm quota get -u test Quota

This is typically done in a nightly cronjob when there's less disk I/O activity. " What happens if there is filesystem hard quota that is exceeded? Will dovecot allow to delete mails to free space without a need to wait

Hello Few questions regarding Doveadm-Expunge. 1. I have lazy expunge configure with this name space: .EXPUNGED Storage type: mdbox doveadm -Dv expunge -u user at domain mailbox ".EXPUNGED/*" savedbefore 7d I get some interesting outputs. doveadm(user at domain): Debug: expunge: box=.EXPUNGED/INBOX/mon uid=791 doveadm(user at domain): Debug: expunge: box=.EXPUNGED/INBOX/mon

I'm using "/usr/bin/doveadm purge -A" to purge the mdboxes of my users. Unfortunately this command terminates prematurely once it reaches a defective mdbox! Is there a workaround for this? Like using doveadm to get a list of valid users and then run "doveadm purge -u" on each of those? -- [*] sys4 AG http://sys4.de, +49 (89) 30 90 46 64 Franziskanerstra?e 15, 81669
