Hello all. I have strange problem. As I understand IMAP use server2client command to tell what new email is arrived.

Guys, I'm getting strange messages on my new server with dovecot-1.1rc4 + lda + sieve + ldap + postfix + suse10. This server is in production since monday, and worked fine until today. The only thing I had changed was dovecot from 1.1rc3 to 1.1rc4. I already enabled mail_debug, but I got any erros after that. Does anyone have any idea of what is happening? Unable to handle kernel NULL

Hi, I'll try to keep short. My primary question is what, in people's experience, are the best configuration settings for to avoid potential NFS cache locking issues in an interesting heterogeneous environment? We appear to have a workaround for some locking issues we have seen, which is turning off IDLE. Upgrading our version of dovecot from 1.1.4 is likely to address some core

Hello all. We start to use Dovecot at our email production but it runs not such fast as we expect. We use Dell 2950 with 4GbRAM at FreeBSD-7.0-p9 - load avarage never upper a 0.5 We have about 500 clients most of it use Outlook 2007 via IMAP. We run in this problems: 1) Sync of imap folder is really slow(I think it is Outlook problem) 2) Time after time we got Sync error from outlook 3) Time

others have found this problem ? this possible bug can be used by user in that way that one password login can use 2 maildirs in filesystem effitively give them all space qoutas and lost of other goodies so to speak: foo at example.com with a password can login with fOO at example.com and fOo at example.com add more chars to get more mailbox :/ confirms ? i found the problem when i had

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

Hi all, I have a Postfix+Dovecot working in beta/testing; it seems to run very fine, but one beta-tester user says that kmail informs him about frequent desconnections.

Hi, I've upgraded from 1.0.7 to 1.1.3. When I did this, my Thunderbird lost its brain and did not show some subscribed folders. squirrelmail also seemed to have issues. Applemail and mutt were fine. The configuration output is below. Hopefully this is just me and just random bizarreness. There wasn't a problem in 1.0.7 but I could have been caught in mid-upgrade. Thunderbird did not

At noon, I often get "dovecot: Maximum number of mail processes exceeded" I'm at my wits end, which parameter needs to be increased further? # 1.1.3: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf protocols: imap imaps pop3s ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/postamt.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/postamt.key disable_plaintext_auth: no version_ignore: yes login_dir: /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login

Hi, I've got dovecot 1.0rc15 running on a Debian etch box toegether with deliver and exim4 backend by a mysql userdb. Everythin is working fine, except that deliver is much to verbose. It prints lots of information, including the password, for every mail delivered to the syslog. The problem here is that I don't wan't the password to be printed to a log somewhere. How can I turn this

Hi, it looks like there is a bug (in dovecot or in my config) with quota on maildir mailboxes when accessed via POP3. The maildirsize is not created when not already present (even after a DELE + QUIT command). The quota limit (the first line of maildirsize) is not updated if values are not in sync with those in the database. If maildirsize is present, DELE commands are correctly reported in

Greetings - We are running Dovecot 1.1.11 on our servers and have been gradually migrating people off our old (UW-based) systems onto the new (Dovecot-based) ones. As a result the new systems are seeing more connections from more people. We have started seeing problems reported by users of our webmail service that they are getting an error indicating the webmail software (Prayer) has failed to
