Expuning & Purging doesn't fully remove emails?
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)

Expuning & Purging doesn't fully remove emails?
?I managed to figure this out.
Just wanted to follow up if anyone in the future encounters the same issue.
I am using HAProxy along with dovecot replication. When an email comes in... it is round robin'd to each of the 2 dovecot/postfix servers. I have postfix running on each server and it uses the local dovecot LMTP service for storing the mails.
We sometimes get surges of emails(hundreds

Recovering expunged but not purged e-mails from mdbox with zlib compression
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

lazy_expuge + mdbox
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.

autoexpunge - different settings for different users
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

constant Log synchronization error's
Hi,
I am seeing constant "Log synchronization error"s in my logs. See later
for an example.
This is dovecot 2.2.4, pigeonhole 0.4.1, and postfix 2.10.1 (with
mailbox_command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver) on a Fedora 19 system.
I am using packages from Atrpms so there are some patches applied - ask
for details. The mailboxes have resently been moved from a i386 system.

mdbox expunge purge question
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

corrupted indexes rebuilding over and over
Hi,
On saturday one of our dovecot machines had an OOPS, and we had to
powercycle it. When it came up, it did a filesystem fsck (ext4) and
fixed a couple things, but nothing in lost+found.
Now, about 50 users have a problem where their indexes are
corrupted. Dovecot tries to fix them, but for some reason it is
failing. The users are seeing their mails duplicated and they cannot
delete mails. I

Purging Deleted Messages
I noticed today I checked a users mailbox with the mutt command:
mutt -f /home/bob/email/
There I saw he had 100 messages that had been deleted but not yet
purged from his inbox so they're still using up disk storage on my
email server.
My question is does Dovecot have a process to automatically delete
these messages after a certain period of time? I would like to think
that they don't

This is a good idea for installations with tons of users. Good point.

distributed mdbox
Anyone know how to setup dovecot with mdbox so that it can be used through
shared storage from multiple hosts? I've setup a gluster volume and am
sharing it between 2 test clients. I'm using postfix/dovecot LDA for
delivery and I'm using postal to send mail between 40 users. In doing
this, I'm seeing these errors in the logs

Disk space usage with mdbox
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
