Is there a way to limit multiple POP3 connections?
Hi all,
Please correct me if I'm going about this the wrong way.
We currently have a 3 system Mail server set up - two machines are the load
balanced frontends running Dovecot and Postfix, and the third machine is
our NFS. Over the past 4 months or so, I've tweaked and optimized our mail
servers, and we receive roughly 3 million emails a day combined through
this setup.

Dovecot proxying results in "too many open files"
Hi,
Some words about my Dovecot setup:
- 10 dovecot servers
- each server has some local mailboxes
- each server has proxying enabled to seamlessly
connect to another host if the mailbox is not local
Running Dovecot 1.1.1 on FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE-p3.
First of all, local mailbox access is fine.
Proxying works also as expected.
Now for the actual problem:
Shortly after startup, Dovecot starts

quote warning not being triggered (yet again)
I'm using 1.2.6 with the managesieve patch and maildir++ quotas (via
the maildirsite file). Again, I found that the quota warning is not
bering triggered.
Testing via:
smtp-source -4 -f sender at charite.de -t recipient at charite.de -m 1 -l 1000000 -C 1 mail.charite.de:submission
recipient at charite.de being a mailbox with a 10.0 MB limit.
I attached dovecot -n and the quota warn script.

Maildir locking by LDA of dovecot
Hi all!
First of all, I want ti thank the whole Dovecot community (developers
for developing and fast responses, users for populating and responses
too). Dovecot is a really good and fast IMAP server - it serves near
3000 in our installation.
Now I have a problem and request community's help its resolving;)

fts_solr on debian lenny dovecot 1.2.15
Hello,
I cannot run FTS SOLR engine. OS is debian lenny. I re-compiled debian
package (from backports) with --with-solr option. Dovecot loads fts_solr
plugin. I know that it loads plugin because if I remove lib21_fts_solr_plugin.so, dovecot does not start. But it does not attempt to communicate with SOLR.
Simple check: stop solr tomcat, and open 8080 port in netcat:
$nc -l -p 8080

Mails don't get deleted after POP3
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

Syslog debug messages
Is there a way to configure dovecot to register in syslog the debug
messages enabled by mail_debug=yes as a debug not as information?
I need this because I want to send this kind of information only to a
remote server. I've configured rsyslog to do this, but dovecot is
registering those debug messages as information not as debug (as I
expected).
This is my rsyslog config:

Sharing all mailboxes and userdb LDAP attrs
Hello all,
I'm setting up a Dovecot environment here, version 1.2.15 on Debian 6.0.2

in-place here, built from the ground up with updated versions of all
involved software.
The operators have told me that they use some scripts hacked up by a
previous sysadmin to give a single "admin" account full

error in logs, but system appears to work
I'm bringing up a system with dovecot that has been running for years with uw-imap. In making the
switch, I put a tail on the log file, made the switch, and sent a test mail and received it. I was
able to receive mail with no apparent difficulties, but the log file was disconcerting. A number of
users connected during the few minutes I had it running, and for each of them there was an

2.0, hourly performance stats
I'm getting constantly high numbers of page reclaims & involuntary
context switches for dovecot/auth.
page reclaims = minor faults = cpu switching back to system-mode, But
why is the auth process doing that so excessively? Same for the large
number of involuntary context switches...
Attached is my "dovecot -n" output.

Benchmarking
I wasted too much time today doing this, but they do show a few
interesting things:
1) mmap_disable=yes is faster than mmap_disable=no. I didn't expect
this. I'm not yet sure why this is, but possibly because then it updates
the mail index by reading the changes from dovecot.index.log, instead of
reopening and re-mmaping dovecot.index. At least that's the biggest
difference between
