similar to: more than 200 imap processes for one user

Hi, recently I checked our mailserver for some more tuning and optimizing and noticed, that currently I do have 487 imap-login processes and I'm asking myself if that's o.k. We do have about 1.000 user in total and not everybody is currently logged in. May be this is o.k. but if not, what might I check? We run the dovecot package provided by redhat EL 5.8 dovecot-1.0.7-7.el5_7.1

Hi, we still have our solid rock dovecot 1.0.7 Redhat el 5.x up and running. We don't need much magic or special setups. However we'd like to think what might be the next step in upgrading our setup. Each user one mbox mailbox. About 500 imap/pop3 accounts, 400GB data. First of all: to what version is a good step from 1.0? Can we get a rpm from e.g. atrpms repository? Dose anyone has

Hi, recently I debugged some load and performance and 'log out' problems and found an error in the dovecot logs: Error: pipe() failed: Too many open files Googling around and reading some posts led to the conclusion, that my problem is a bug, which will not be removed. So I'm thinking of upgrading to the latest prebuild rpm from here: http://packages.atrpms.net/dist/el5/dovecot/

Hi, I'm sorry to bug you with an not directly dovecot related question, but this is for me right now the place with the best mailsystem admins I know. I'm asked if there is a way to save a copy of all mail we send trough our sendmail server (Red Hat EL 5.x) in and out as an .eml file for further processing by a DMS system. The files should be saved on some network share. Any suggestion

Hi, currently I have one new user with a problem. When she logs in to dovecot with pop3 from her apple mail, dovecot tells problems with the +w permission. Error: open(/var/mail/******) failed: Permission denied (euid=3462(******) egid=548(dozenten) missing +w perm: /var/mail) /var/mail is rw by root.mail I cant see why just this particular user has that problem/gets that messages. AFAIK no

Hi folks, I recently got my ldap master slave samba test environment up and runing. samba-3.0.33-3.15.el5_4.1 openldap-2.3.43-3.el5 The ldap systems sync fine, samba users are authenticated by each server seperatly if I set tham in the samba conf. E.g. passdb backend = ldapsam:"ldap://ldap2.filmakademie.de" and passdb backend = ldapsam:"ldap://ldap1.filmakademie.de" work.

This, IMHO, is one of the more annoying bugs with the newer GRUB (which i assume is the bootloader you are using). Specifically the newer grub can't, won't boot from a drive other than the one grub is on. suggest you revert to grub 0.97 or, if any boot loader is or can be put on the drive with the 6.5 distro you can make that drive the boot drive in the bios, which is how i do it. i.e.

Hi, i have two servers, connected to to the lan by 10Gb with 10Gb and DAS hardware raid. Each system con read and write locally or to the 10G iscsi by more than 200 MB/s. Now I have to transfer backups form A to B and doing this with rsync always stuck at +- 48-50MB/s no matter which options, compressions, encryption etc I use.

Hi, it's time to start our redundant dhcp server setup and I found some suggestions and tutorials. But all setups I found use either static or nonstatic ip adress management. For the static setup I'd setup two servers and copy the configfile from the 'master' to the secondary server and do a dhcpd restart. For the nonstatic I have to setup pool and failover peer configurations
