AIX and posix_fallocate
Hi,
AIX's implementation of posix_fallocate is a little bit, let me say,
peculiar. Attached is a patch to "fix" (=work around) this.
Without you'll see this in the logs:
Jul 28 01:17:41 trevi mail:err|error dovecot: IMAP(beckerr):
posix_fallocate() failed: File exists

Corrupted mboxes with v2.2.4, posix_fallocate and GFS2
Hi,
on a clustered Dovecot server installation that was recently moved from a
shared GPFS filesystem to GFS2, occasional corruptions in the users'
INBOXes started appearing, where a new incoming message would be appended
directly after a block of NUL bytes, and be scanned by dovecot as being
glued to the preceding message.
I traced this to the file extension operation performed in

more problems with dovecot-1.1 beta3
Hi,
Thank you for pointing me about -xc99 flag, I have compiled and
installed dovecot inplace of version 1.0.5 without any special actions
on the upgrade. And after starting it immediately got in it's log file
messages like:

AIX mail quota plugin problems
From reading the wiki for a filesystem quota, I took my shot at
1) building my binaries using the mods in AIXPluginsSupport
2) changing dovecot.conf and
3) putting the plugins in the library
But I'm getting this error message when I invoke dovecot:
Plugin imap_quota not found from directory /usr/local/lib/dovecot
Error: imap dump-capability process returned 89

locking questions
I have Dovecot 1.0 in trial use by the IT staff, and have some locking
questions
Background, the mail server runs procmail, sendmail and NFS exports the
user homedir and mailbox to a) a login shell host and b) a mailing list
services host. It runs UWIMAP on the usual ports and dovecot on a
arbitrary port number. Because of concern with NFS and file access
contention. I have the following

Dovecot and Quotas
Is there anything that can be done so that when users IMAP to their
inbox and have reached their filesystem quota, that they can still
DELETE their mail? They can login, but when they go to delete/expunge
this is the error I get in syslog. I have tried mail_read_mmaped to yes
and no, and same result.

No authentication sockets found
Thunderbird (2.0) is all of a sudden checking mail server capabilities
and keep posting a popup saying:
"Mail Server imap.bard.edu is not an IMAP4 mail server". To the best of
my knowledge, neither Tbird nor DC have been updated, though the DC imap
host was rebooted today 3 hours ago. Any info on what this is about?

[Fwd: mulitple instance run problem]
As I explained, I want to be able to run a second instance of DC through
another port to do testing while not interrupting the users using the
primary instance in the the regular port. I was instructed to create a
second config file with different listen ports and a separate base_dir.
I did so and invoked dc with -c pointing to dovecot2.conf.

preallocate CPU usage - pre4
When I use the preallocate patch and create a 77GB file using the function I
get a CPU spike on the server-side. The spike lasts about 20 minutes and
uses about 20%-25% of the cpu associated with the rsync instance creating
the file. The spike is directly linked to the time it takes to create the
file.
I compiled rsync using cygwin CVS. I initially suspected the implementation

Can I install in the following fashion?
<permit me my perhaps foolish preference...an explanation>
I run mail service for a small college. I've long joked that if someone
stole the mail server, the phone would ring before the alarm (which has
a 1 minute delay) did, that the user base expected 25x8x367 coverage.
Making updates/upgrades to the mail server feels like a tightrope walk
with no net. I always appreciated

Quotas once again
Its been a while since I tried dovecot on my mail server where I have
quota issues. I am using mbox file format. There still seems to be a
quota problem. I have only /var with quotas and basedir is under /usr
(not quotaed). default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u.
I tried with mbox_locks = dotlock fcntl (1st set of logs below) and with
mbox_locks = fcntl (2nd set of logs)

alert function, V2
I guess the alert function is not part of the spec, because it appears
to be unimplemented in Dovecot, even though most clients implement it.
Timo, I would hope this would be easy to implement, and it's
functionality that will be valuable to every installation. Here's why.

File fragmentation
Wayne.my vote is for a command-line option. I've noticed there is some
penalty for very large files (35GB-50GB). The penalty is relatively small
based on my 'intuitive' measurements.read me watching without running a real
timer. The difference is very small compared to what happens after a few
weeks without the fragmentation patch. Our SAN was becoming so fragmented
that we were
