dovecot 2 low TCP speed (fetching big mail)
by Wojciech Puchar 02 Jan '15

i use dovecot 2 under FreeBSD (dovecot2-2.2.15 compiled from ports). tried both with kqueue enabled or not. everything works very fast, EXCEPT fetching big mail. tried multiple clients (thunderbird on windows, alpine on the same server, alpine on other unix server connected by 1Gb/s LAN) and fetching peaks at 1MB/s. NO SSL! could you please point me where to search for a problem. hints: writing over IMAP (eg. writing to Sent folder) works at full speed. Doesn't seem like a problem with unix server, every other service goes at speed 70-100MB/s both directions (like samba, ftp). tried to turn off "kqueue" compile time option, no difference. Please give me a hint at least what to check. Does dovecot use other way to sent data over TCP socket than other programs? thank you.

Postfix and Dovecot SASL - wiki update
by Dan Langille 01 Jan '15

I wanted to mention I updated the Postfix and Dovecot SASL wiki entry yesterday. http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/PostfixAndDovecotSASL The entry: submission inet n - - - - smtpd was incorrect. It should be: submission inet n - n - - smtpd By specifying n for chroot, it ensures that DNS lookups can occur. Otherwise, if you are using reject_unknown_recipient_domain the following error will occur: Recipient address rejected: Domain not found Hope that helps. — Dan Langille http://langille.org/
