by Jeff A. Earickson 19 Sep '05

19 Sep '05

Hi, Two cores over the weekend, same assert message in syslog: imap(user): file message-body-search.c: line 393 (message_body_search_ctx): assertion failed: (input->v_offset <= part->physical_pos) Setup: Solaris 9, imap usage only, mbox format, dovecot compiled with gcc 4.0.1. gdb sessions of the two core files attached. Let me know if you need further analysis of the cores. Jeff Earickson Colby College

[Dovecot] Very minor feature request
by Steffen Kaiser 19 Sep '05

19 Sep '05

Hello, I'd suggest a way to get to know the "capabilities" of a compiled Dovecot. The background is that I've run the sequence ./configure --with-ldap && make && make install twice, all three commands tell me that all is fine (ldap is listed in the modules), but still dovecot told me that ldap is no Usedb module. A "make clean" before solved the problem -- well, something one should anyway. Besides, the "dovecot --capabilities" should also list all the defaults. Bye, -- Steffen Kaiser

Re: [Dovecot] Misbehavior with Dovecot and Mulberry
by Jon Roma 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

Well, ironically after my tests succeeded, my reply to the Dovecot list just now failed to append to the Dovecot maildir folder. So I guess it works sometimes and not other times. :( The error message is the same "failed: Invalid argument".

[Dovecot] "racing" error ???
by Andy Cravens 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

Anybody know what this racing error means? I've got hundreds of them in my Dovecot log file. I tried to search the archives but couldn't find a search link. Nothing on Google search either. dovecot: Aug 30 16:55:54 Error: IMAP(testuser): maildir_file_do(/export/home/testuser/mail) racing -- Andy Cravens

[Dovecot] Newbie question
by Andrés Rusconi 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

Hi, my name is Andrés Rusconi, from Tucumán, Argentina. Sorry my English, please. I am a very happy new user of Dovecot: I gained speed and simplicity with him. But I noticed that in clients who use Outlook, the deleted messages do not copy to the trash folder. This is not critical, but did not happen with Courier, and the users askme about this behavior. If some of you has somehow solved this small question, I will thank for their commentary. Saludos Andrés

[Dovecot] Master account
by Diego M. Vadell 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

Hi, Is there an administrator o master account in dovecot, which could be able too access all mailboxes? I need to periodically delete some emails (older than a number of days). I wanted to use imapfilter, a program that uses imap to access mailboxes to do that, but as the users can change their passwords, I can't do it. Is there a way to do that? Thanks in advance, -- Diego.

[Dovecot] Dovecot & SquirrelMail
by Mark Smith 18 Sep '05

18 Sep '05

At the moment SquirrelMail can only view the INBOX folder. Trash, Sent, Drafts and other folders i create are not listed. I remember there is a config in dovecot.conf to view where the default box is. I'm not sure how it should be set. My Inbox is in: /var/mail/$user/ The Other Dirs are in: /home/user/mail/ What should the config look like? Please Help Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ Be the first to hear what's new at MSN - sign up to our free newsletters! http://www.msn.co.uk/newsletters
