similar to: Thunderbird message cache out of sync after repetitive rsyncs...

Starting a new thread, as I've got a lot more details now... First, I know this may be (or is even likely) something weird happening with Thunderbird, but the bottom line is, I have to find a resolution or a workaround or something, or I will be unable to pull the trigger on the server migration. It is simply unacceptable to lose ANY mails doing this. Goal: migrate mailstore from old

Hi all, Ok, since 3.1 still isn't in stable, I'm curious if I can just find the equivalent of: rsync -avHP --delete --exclude-from '/home/user/excludes.txt' /mnt/example.com/ /var/vmail/example.com/ But that will ignore differences in permissions - ie, won't recopy everything, just because the permissions on the source are different from the permissions on the target...

I'm getting tired of Thunderbird telling me I have unread messages in folders that haven't gotten new messages for months so I'm looking for a new mail client. I know the problem lies with Thunderbird because everything is fine via RoundCube and if it tell Thunderbird to rebuild it's index it shows the folder correctly again. Except of course for a subset of the messages in

Hello, Sometimes it happens that messages (e.g. one or two) appear in wrong folders in Thunderbird (latest version, also past versions, different computers, also Earlybird). When I repair the folder (folder/Settings/Repair Folder) in Thunderbird, the folder is correct then. It happens on my new server with Fedora 20, Dovecot 2.2.13 and Maildir but it also happened on my old server with

Hi, I have a CentOS 6.4 fileserver running SerNet Samba 4.0.9 with these global settings (not overridden): read only = No force create mode = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 inherit acls = yes inherit owner = yes inherit permissions = yes On a Windows client, I have Thunderbird 24.0 storing its profile and mail on the Samba share.

Background is that I have been using Evolution for my MUA for a number of years. Migrated to Evolution from Mozilla Mail. I only use Evolution for email and contacts. Getting bored with the issues (frequently not being able to exit and needing to kill it; Bug Buddy popping up in GNOME, etc) that Mark (MHR) and I and I'm sure others have experienced. About 24 hours ago, I installed

I've Google'd to exhaustion and can't seem to find an answer to my problem. I'm not sure if the problem is TBird 3 or my Dovecot setup. The basic problem is that when I launch TBird and it grabs messages upon startup, it takes forever to supposedly pull them down. Once it's got them they sort relatively quickly into the proper IMAP (dovecot) folders. I don't use sieve

Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to use Thunderbird as a local mail reader. So far I don't see any way to configure it other than as a POP3 or IMAP mail reader, but I get my mail locally and would like to try using Tbird to read it. What am I overlooking? Thanks in advance! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex at fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ------------------------ ---- Do you

This worked fine for years until I updated firefox and thunderbird recently. Now, however, when I click on a link in an email in thunderbird, rather than open the indicated webpage in firefox, nothing at all happens. network.protocol-handler.app.http in tbird's about:config specifies the executable /usr/lib/thunderbird/open-browser.sh and running the latter at the CLI with a URL as an

Hi all, I'm still using beta8 (on FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE). Recently I put a co-worker who's using Thunderbird (1.5.0.4) on it and he seemed to have lost some messages (which were delivered on the spool since seen on procmail logfile). I switched him on another server to play safe and tried to test it myself but failed to reproduce the issue. I myself use mutt on a daily basis with no

Using a fairly simple dovecot config (which obviously needs some max limit tweaking) we have problems with IMAP synchronization between thunderbird clients. Two TB clients in the same IMAP mailbox will, from time to time, show different views of the same INBOX folders, when TB caching is enabled. The only fix is to right-click on the folder, go to "Properties" and use the "Repair

Does anyone have any experience putting together a sane config for Thunderbird in an automated fashion? Automated meaning "simple to distribute to users". -- (Background: I'm currently experiencing that Thunderbird does not work against Postfix/Dovecot because the wizard interface for setting up an account does not accept TLS-only servers. Users just sit there with a broken

I'm trying to find out what's causing this slowdown -- it's INTOLERABLE.... over 1 minute and less than 1% done. (400MB file)... After trying 3 times, I gave up and logged in using X to the server and ran Tbird from there.... Mail sent out in < 1 minute, though the copy to dovecot took about 50% longer. So... I looked at the network trace. and everyfrackin' body was

The latter. Unfortunately we need to get physical access and delete the checkout. I'm afraid reverting will just reintroduce the problem and re-break all the bots that people already took the time to fix, since going from MSF -> Msf is the same as going from Msf -> MSF On Mon, Aug 1, 2016 at 8:55 AM Reid Kleckner <rnk at google.com> wrote: > So, the MSF rename managed to break

Howdy, I'm very excited about the new dovecot release because I've been having problems with a hang on saving messages to my sent-mail box over imap+ssl. I installed 1.0rc3 over my 1.0rc2 install on FreeBSD 5.3 in the same manner as all the other upgrades I've done. After checking my email, tbird became nonresponsive and I saw this repeating in my logs ad infinitum: Aug 2 10:17:10

Hi all, If you don't care about Debug Info or PDB files you can stop reading now. Just wanted to give a heads up that I'm planning to add a new folder under DebugInfo called Msf. MSF stands for Multi-Stream File and is the container format used by PDB debug info files. However, MSF by itself is generic enough that it need not contain PDB data, and in fact I can think of at least one

thunderbird just crashed, and I've never seen this before. Any idea what happened? this was in the dovecot log: 2010-12-02 13:06:40 imap-login: Info: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded (mail_max_userip_connections): user=<pbc>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured 2010-12-02 13:06:40 imap-login: Info: Maximum number of connections from user+IP exceeded

I actually regret doing all caps for PDB, and there seems to be mixed use of all caps / rolling caps even with dwarf (some places say DWARF, others say Dwarf). I don't feel too strongly aside from the minor inconvenience of having to change thousands of occurrences where I already used rolling caps though :-/ On Fri, Jul 22, 2016 at 10:52 AM Reid Kleckner <rnk at google.com> wrote:

The bot has been failing its CMake step for a while now. Probably fallout from renaming Msf to MSF. Can somebody get this straightened out? It's one of the bots that run VS2013 AFAICT which makes it useful to me. Thanks, --paulr
