similar to: Corrupted mdbox on LMTP director delivery while user is logged in via IMAP

Hi, in my dovecot setup the accounting database table shows wrong values which do not correspond with the actual disk space used. The disk usage says 2.6 Gigabytes: mail01:~# du -sh /mail/dovecot/example.org/username 2.6G /mail/dovecot/example.org/username While the doveadm quota get says 7 Gigabytes for the same user: mail01:~# doveadm -f tab quota get -u username at example.org Quota name

When I open the mail client (thunderbird), I can access the mailboxes and all of a sudden, I am loosing the authenticated session. Any idea's where to look?

I have this default configuration [0], when use the userdb_mail to point to the mdbox location, the inbox subfolders show differently in a firebird client. So I decided to copy the whole default mail_location into the userdb_mail configuration [2]. But then I get errors [3]. Should I change the namespace configuration here, how? My default namespaces are inbox and 4archives [0] [@ ]#

Hi, we have configured userdb and passdb in the director and try to iterate all users and pass the "purge" command via doveadm proxy to port 19000 on the correct director backend host. A single purge -u username at example.org via doveadm-proxy works correctly, but iterating over some users with -A fails. Note: users/domains have been anonymized in output:

Hi, we are experiencing similar sporadic data timeout issues with dovecot 2.0.20 as in http://dovecot.org/pipermail/dovecot/2011-June/059807.html at least once a week. Some mails get temporarily deferred in the postfix queue since dovecot director lmtp refuses them and the mails are delivered at a later time. The problem applies to mails delivered to single users as well as distribution lists

Hi there, I have the problem that I'm unable to delete a subfolder (again) I created within a public folder. I've already read about configuring Thunderbird to delete immediately - which I did. But it still doesn't work. I delete -> the folder is gone -> I get a TB error message saying "The folder doesn't exist" -> after restarting TB the folders appear again.

This seems to be happening only when using the pop3c plugin. Any advice? root at imap01:/etc/dovecot# doveadm -D -o imapc_user=chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -o 'imapc_password=*******' -o pop3c_user=chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -o 'pop3c_password=*****' backup -u chat_logs at xxxxxx.com -R imapc: doveadm(root): Debug: Loading modules from directory: /usr/lib/dovecot/modules doveadm(root):

Hi, I'm stuck with a problem we have with dovecot. My suspicion is, that it has to do with accessing the same mailbox/mail stored on a NFS-share from two machines at the same time. setup We have to mail servers running, both run a Ubuntu 10.04, Postfix 2.70 and Dovecot 1.2.9. The mailboxes are stored in maildir format on a NFS-Share. In front of those to mail servers we have a load

With this setting, all folders are empty, I guess understandable, because the mdbox has its own indexes stored locally with it. Does not explain though why inbox is empty. [@ dovecot]# cat special-userdb test:x:8267:231:Account with special settings for dovecot:/home/popusers/test:/bin/false:userdb_mail=mdbox:~/mdbox:INBOX=/ var/spool/mail/%u:INDEX=/var/dovecot/%u/index With this setting

Hi, I'm wondering, whether it's possible, to define an ACL on the mailbox itself. We use Dovecot 1.2.15 (included in Debian 6) and maildir filesystem layout: /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/new \ /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/cur Inbox /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/tmp / /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/.folder1/new \ /home/mail01/user1/Maildir/.folder1/cur folder1

Hello, we are searching for a possibility to configure a user login on behalf of another user with a PAM backend. This reminds to the behavior of a master user. But a master user can access the mailboxes of all users. We need this more restricted. Example: User "user1" and "user2" shall get access to the mailbox "info". We define the accounts

Hello, In my current setup, I uses two mailservers to handle the users connections, and my emails are stored on a distant server using NFS (maildir architecture) Dovecot is both my IMAP server and the delivery agent (LMTP via postfix) To avoid indexing issues related to NFS, proxying is enabled both on IMAP and LMTP. But when a mail is sent to users that are shared between the servers, I got the

Hello, I use convert-tool regularly for converting mbox based mail accounts to maildir based mail accounts. Today I tuned my convert script around convert-tool. I'm irritated about the exit codes. It seems, they should be inverted or am I wrong? $ /opt/dovecot-1.0.10/bin/convert-tool rogtest1 /home/mail01/rogtest1 mbox:/home/rogtest1/mail maildir:/home/mail01/rogtest1/Maildir 1 Error: Source

Doing an imapc migration with the pop3 migration plugin, using doveadm backup -R.

Hi list! I use Dovecot 1.2.17 (I can't upgrade right now, due to many reasons), controlled by Pacemaker (I have an HA-Cluster). Now I see that Pacemaker restarts often Dovecot. I wrote my own script to manage Dovecot, since Pacemaker does not have his own. My script, by the "monitor" section has this: monitor) if [ ! -e $OCF_RESKEY_pid ]; then

Greetings, An update via cvsup (attempting to chase 5.4 stable) on 2006-02-20 @2:40 PM resulted in a couple of disappointments; 1) after re-building the kernel (cvsupped the SRC on SMP as well) and installing it. I performed a build/ install world and portupgrade -a. The portupgrade -a took 2 full days on a base of 246 installed ports. And resulted in a *465 installed ports base*. Ouch! It's

I wondered why mdbox_rotate_size is 2MB by default. I thought if I increased it to 16MB, maybe there would be less disk io, but I dont see any difference. Furthermore I read in some thread that increasing it from 2MB, could give problems when deleting messages, can someone explain this? Does anyone have this on a cephfs mount, does it make sense to set this to 4MB? [@test2 ~]# pr -m -t

mdbox format is a cross between mbox and sdbox. The idea is that it keeps up to mdbox_rotate_size sized mbox files which contain mails. Using zlib here will not help, because zlib is not applied to the full mdbox file, but individual mails within. Also not sure why you think that adding compression would make things faster? =) I am not fully sure how cephfs works but you might get better
