[Dovecot] quota_warning bug?
by jeroen＠intuxicated.org 13 Aug '10

13 Aug '10

Hi, Today I was testing with dovecot 2.0 rc5 and experienced some odd behaviour with quota_warning rules. It's reproducable. When I set a rule (this one simply writes some message to a text file) and go over quota (2 messages in this case), it works as expected. But if I restart my client, remove one message, restart my client again and remove the last message from my inbox, it executes the warning rule again. Does this sound familiar to anyone? I tested with the debian package dovecot_2.0.rc5-0~auto+8 found in rename-it.nl's repository. Thanks. Best regards, Jeroen Koekkoek

[Dovecot] Exim+Dovecot LDA - How can I catch the crash?
by Odhiambo Washington 12 Aug '10

Hello list I am testing mdbox with Dovecot from http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-2.0-sis/.and my MTA is Exim. It appears to crash, but I am not sure how to capture the actual crash. What I get in Exim logs is: 2010-07-28 19:55:13 1Oe9uT-000KmG-Oz ** /var/spool/virtual/ titan.co.ke/wash/Maildir <wash(a)titan.co.ke> R=virtual_domains T=dovecot_virtual_delivery: Child process of dovecot_virtual_delivery transport (running command "/opt/dovecot2/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $local_part@$domain -f $sender_address") was terminated by signal 11 (segmentation fault) This crash does not happen with RC3 of Dovecot. I know I shouldn't be using bleeding edge code, but strangely enough, I need to use this one to satisfy my curiosity, and to help me learn one or two new tricks.

[Dovecot] hunting timeouts
by Iv Ray 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hi guys, I inherited a Dovecot 1.0.1, which I will have to upgrade, but until then I need, if possible, to resolve a timeout. - we have about 25 IMAP users - the busiest user has about 100 000 messages (Maildir) in less than 100 folders - the mail server is on HP server with server grade 2.5" HDDs in RAID 5 - the load average of the server is low (the 5/15 minute is under 0.20) - the mail server is in-house on Gigabit Ethernet The timeout we face is that sometimes even small messages take 20-40 seconds to open (i. e. Tunderbird 2 on Windows 7). Or connection to the mail server timeouts. Could you give me a few tips where can I look in order to detect the possible reason for these timeouts. Thank you, Iv

[Dovecot] moving mail from private inbox to public folder kills the latter
by Tamas Kadar 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hi I've ran into something rather nasty: if a user moves a mail from its inbox to a public folder, the folder becomes inaccessible for others, because the moved file will have the the permission 600 instead of 777 (or 666) which the rest of the emails have in the folder. How can I change this behavior so when he moves the mail it automatically becomes world-readable? Also why one mail kills the whole folder? Here's the error I get: Error: open(/home/_shared/projects/.Long.Folder/cur/1281535484.M3B5A7P15183Q0.mail_espell_com:2,Sb) failed: Permission denied (euid=1000(ktamas) egid=1000(ktamas) missing +r perm: /home/_shared/projects/.Long.Folder/cur/1281535484.M3B5A7P15183Q0.mail_espell_com:2,Sb, euid is not dir owner) Thanks and best regards Tamas
