[Dovecot] save failed to INBOX

[Erland Nylend]

Hello,

I'm seeing som error messages in the mail log, like this:

Jun 12 12:50:44 <mail.info> smtp2 deliver(user1 at domain.tld): msgid=<10784847.1181644475592.foo.bar at foo99>: save failed to INBOX 
Jun 12 12:50:44 <mail.info> smtp2 deliver(user1 at domain.tld): msgid=<30757588.1181644556388.foo.bar at foo99>: saved mail to INBOX 

It seems that when two or more messages are being delivered at the
same time, only one delivery succeeds.

Both the maildirs and the indexes are stored on a SAN ..

I'll try to read the source, to find out whether this is a locking
problem. I would think that if a deliver -process finds that a
maildir is locked, then it should wait, and retry?
