Hello list, we continue our tests using Dovecot on a RHEL 6.1 Cluster Backend with GFS2, also we are using dovecot as a Director for user node persistence, everything was ok until we started stress testing the solution with imaptest, we had many deadlocks, cluster filesystems corruptions and hangs, specially in index filesystem, we have configured the backend as if they were on a NFS like setup

Hello Timo, I'm running a single instance of dovecot-2.1.15 on a single host running 8.3-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD amd64 mailboxes (Maildir), control files and indexes are on NFS (v3,tcp) mail_nfs_storage = yes lock_method = fcntl [didn't touch the following] # Mail index files also exist in NFS. Setting this to yes requires # mmap_disable=yes and

Hi, there! Well, I am new to dovecot, so please be patient with me: I have a virtual server and want to setup simple mail delivery. postfix, saslauthd and dovecot basically work fine. The only open issue is, that (I guess) dovecot doesn't remove the mail when it's retrieved via pop3 from the server. It keeps sending me the same emails again and again. (The mail client (Thunderbird) is

Hi I have "problem" with dovect 2.2.13 from repo debian8 and I don't know how to solve it ... Server is a virtual (kvm) with debian 8.11 (postfix + dovecot from repo) and storage is mounting via nfs (I have use only one dovecot with external storage) All works fine but sometime ( after a few hours ) I have got a problem with dovecot cache (i use indexes) logs ->

This is with respect to an error that I am facing in dovecot. The error is that is seen in logs is "Feb 23 00:04:46 mailblade1 dovecot: IMAP(USERNAME): /indexes/USERNAME/.INBOX/dovecot-uidlist: Duplicate file entry at line 7: 1234776125.M559298P3988.s2o.qlc.co.in,S=13111,W=13470:2, (uid 94277 -> 97805)" This error is seen for multiple users.

Hi, About a week ago I upgraded our reasonably heavily loaded mail servers from a pretty recent courier version to dovecot-1.1rc10. IMAP performance on dovecot is amazing, however POP3 performance is worse than courier :-( I have uploaded some munin graphs taken today to http://linweb.atlas.pipex.net/dovecot/; the dovecot server is handling about 2000 pop logins/sec and 300 imap sessions (but

Hi all, ok, I am updating to the 2.0 way of doing things and have managed to get everything set up right, except I am getting the following errors when attempting to use managesieve with our webmail client (roundcube) that I didnt get when using dovecot 1.2.11...

Hi Timo, ok, using the latest 2.0beta6... I can't figure out the settings for the log file to have the correct permissions. When the log file is created, it is created owned by root and 0600 permissions, which doesn't allow the lda to write to it if I use different users and groups for that main config... If I then chmod the log file to 666, then everything is happy, but again, if that

Hi, I am trying to update my old mails servers from dovecot 2.1.15 to 2.2.12 (freebsd ports) and upgrade to FreeBSD 10.0-P3. My mail storage are on NFS with index also. On 2.1.15 everything is ok, and in 10-mail.conf I have the good things to be added as wiki tell me (eg http://wiki2.dovecot.org/NFS). BUT, when I try a single connection like : $ telnet ::1 110 Trying ::1... Connected to

Hi, Does anyone have experience with bending the NFS recommendations to get better performance? The question is has anyone, with Maildir and the INDEX= on NFS (i.e. dovecot.index and dovecot.index.cache, set mail_nfs_index to no. If so, was it better to turn maildir_copy_preserve_filename to on or did it help to turn if off. The other question is did you play with turning off atime updates

Hi all, ok, so I've implemented an after sieve script with the following line in the plugins area : sieve_after = /home/mailboxes/sieve/to_spam_folder.sieve It seems to work ok on some accounts, but then I'm getting the following error in the deliver error log for many accounts : Error: sieve: script /home/mailboxes/sieve/to_spam_folder.sieve failed with unsuccessful implicit keep

Hello, I'm deploing a new email cluster using Dovecot over GFS2. Actually I'm using courier over GFS. Actually I'm testing Dovecot with these parameters: mmap_disable = yes mail_fsync = always mail_nfs_storage = yes mail_nfs_index = yes lock_method = fcntl Are they correct? RedHat GFS support mmap, so is it better to enable it or leave it disabled? The documentation suggest the

Hi, I've run into a bit of a problem and exhausted my knowledge and research. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very obvious! I moved from a single Apple OS X 10.6.2 server Dovecot environment to a NFS clustered environment, currently with two servers. Both servers are identical hardware, software. Currently both the Dovecot index and data files are on the NFS RAID array.

Thanks, they are as in example, except for "mailbox_list_index = yes" witch is from https://wiki.dovecot.org/PerformanceTuning On Wed, Nov 14, 2018 at 12:18 PM Aki Tuomi <aki.tuomi at open-xchange.com> wrote: > You should review https://wiki2.dovecot.org/NFS to see that the settings > make sense. > > Aki > On 14.11.2018 12.00, Adrian M wrote: > > Thank you !

I have two servers pointing to an NFS mounted mail spool with dovecot.? Since I recently switched from using Dovecot v1.X, I have been experiencing high CPU use with the two Dovecot servers. I am not certain why they are not well behaved.? Here is the configuration information. This configuration is currently running at a load average of 17. /usr/sbin/dovecot -n # 2.1.15:

I've just updated from 1.0.14 to 1.1.1 (Maildirs). According to <URL:http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.1>, "dovecot-uidlist file is in a new format. The old format is automatically converted to new one." When I try to delete a message (which moves it to the IMAP Trash folder), I get the following looping sequence of errors until I cancel the delete operation in the mail

We are in the process of migrating away from Courier-IMAP/POP3 and Maildrop. I want to use Dovecot (LDA, IMAP, POP3). During my testing, it has worked great except for dotlocking on the dovecot-uidlist file. The problem: When a delivery is being made with deliver and a mail client has the mailbox open (Thunderbird in this case), neither Thunderbird or deliver can get a dotlock on the

In reading the Dovecot NFS WIKI entry: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/NFS It mentions a FreeBSD NFS client caching bug. I believe that bug only exists pre-8.x ? It seems that a patch in the PR notes was MFC'd and made it into 8.x at some point. (at least I checked the source in 8.3 and it was there). So I assume that FreeBSD 8.x mitigates the issue? Maybe not? So our deployment is multi
