similar to: NFS performance and 1.1.3 - what can you (unofficially) get away with?

Hi, Up until yesterday, our environment which consists an NFS maildir file store with multiple front end servers, was working fine. We've verified that the server clocks and machines clocks are in sync. Starting yesterday afternoon, We are getting ~850 log entries of the form 'Timeout while waiting for lock for transaction log files' or 'Our dotlock file was modified,

hi, I've used dovecot 1.1.16 but after upgrade to dovecot 1.2.4 per-user ldap quotas stoped working.

Hi, I've just completed a migration from Courier to a Dovecot 1.0.7 (patched RHE 5) which is working great, except for this weirdness of an issue that is impacting a handful of users. My question is that will turning off maildir_copy_preserve_filename help or hurt in a situation where there are multiple servers with their own local INDEX files (uidlist is shared)? The problem is that a

Hi, I've upgraded from 1.0.7 to 1.1.3. When I did this, my Thunderbird lost its brain and did not show some subscribed folders. squirrelmail also seemed to have issues. Applemail and mutt were fine. The configuration output is below. Hopefully this is just me and just random bizarreness. There wasn't a problem in 1.0.7 but I could have been caught in mid-upgrade. Thunderbird did not

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

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, we're running dovecot 1.1.2 (centos5 32-bit rpm from atrpms) havn't had any real issues with it, but today it looks like an index has become badly corrupted. We're seeing this in the logs every time we log in to a particular account: 2008-09-10T11:56:07+01:00 mail8 dovecot: Panic: IMAP(xxx): Trying to allocate 2273345672 bytes 2008-09-10T11:56:07+01:00 mail8 dovecot: IMAP(xxx):

Dear Martin Pool. We regularly use rsync for making backups of our file systems but we have noticed that the atimes are not transferred with the files and are also always updated on the sender's side. Therefore, we have created a modified version of rsync based on rsync-2.6.6 protocol version 29 which transfers the access times with the transferred files and also allows to preserve the access

Often we need to preserve the information atime conveys, but I have found no way to get rsync to preserve this, nor any hint it is being worked on. It would be great if 'rsync -t' also set atime not just mtime -- or maybe a new option is desired for atime. I don't know if the -X mentioned in "NEWS file from CVS" covers this: > Added the --xattrs (-X) option to preserver

Hello I am making backup of a Plesk Debian server to /backup using Rsync. My questioin is how can I preserve the ctime, mtime, and atime of original files? Thanks

Hi, I'll try to keep short. My primary question is what, in people's experience, are the best configuration settings for to avoid potential NFS cache locking issues in an interesting heterogeneous environment? We appear to have a workaround for some locking issues we have seen, which is turning off IDLE. Upgrading our version of dovecot from 1.1.4 is likely to address some core

Hey guys, got a question about the expire plugin. According to the wiki, the expire plugin "keeps an internal database (Berkeley DB or SQL)". I was wondering what fields in the mysql table are needed for expire to work. I assume it is setup is similar to the quota dict setup, so was just wondering what fields are required (i.e: select_field, where_field, username_field, for quota).

Hello, since we are using rsync for backing up millions of files in a virtual environment, and most of the virtual machines run on SSD cached storage, i`d be curious how that negatively impacts lifetime of the SSD`s when we do rsync run every night for backup my question: does rsync normal file comparison run to determine if anything has changed change atime of any files ? for me it seems,

PhatBox and Music Keg (which I'd describe as MP3 players that hook into your car stereo) unofficially support Vorbis. Apparently there was a post to vorbis-dev quite a while ago about this, but it's news to me, and it hasn't been on this list. I'll add this to my hardware list, which I'll post here soon. This was a (very speedy :-)) response I got from PhatNoise's

I posted a patch a few days ago that adds copying of atime. At that time, it was just enabled with -t/--times. After some time, we have figured out that that choice might not have been the best. Here's a new version of the patch (relative to CVS) that adds -A/--copy-atime instead. It also includes a test case. Any feedback on this patch and/or the previous one that I posted?

Hi, we recently upgraded dovecot from 1.0.5 to 1.1.3+latest patches. After the upgrade I saw some errors in the logs and I'm not sure whether they're a cause for concern. Our setup is 2 servers running openSUSE 11.0 and a NetApp Filer as storage backend. Following is the config: protocols: imap imaps pop3 pop3s login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default):

I have to look at some issues in static but the initial port is pic and all of test-suite now passes. Even the crazy mips16 hard-float and interoperability with mips32 is working in test-suite. People that have experience with this in gcc mips16 can attest to the complexity there. More testing and other work but at least the base port is there. Reed
