Using Thunderbird-0.9. Dovecot is running on RHEL 3, on top of
Redhat/Sistina GFS (clustered filesystem.) Currently I'm keeping it on
one node to avoid possible GFS locking issues. I'm running with
mmap_disabled=yes, mbox format. Most of the 1.0-test builds I have
done eventually corrupt their index files, and show strange behavior
(click on a message in the folder view, and an entirely different
message opens... delete three or four messages and expunge, the messages
instantly reappear as unseen.). I typically wipe the .imap directories
between different builds of Dovecot.
I've been following the -test code for a couple of months now, just to
see how it does, because we're running UW IMAPd and are excited to have
a way to increase the performance of our mail cluster (indexes) without
having to move away from mbox.
Let me know if there's more information I could provide that would be
helpful.
