Hi folks, I just replaced my mail server's UW-imap with dovecot yesterday. I use the following folder setting
default_mail_env = mbox:/asiaa/home/%u/:/asiaa/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=/asiaa/home/%u/mail/dovecot_indexes
This is a Scientific linux 4.2 with dovecot 0.99.11-2 .
Now today the server loading is highly reduced because of the pop3 session impact is low. But users have the following problems:
For outlook express users, when they come in the office, the first time they launch outlook express, they found that the previous Inbox is re-transmitted. So they got double the number of all past e-mails (they setup OE setting to keep a copy on the server).
And some users also use pine. After the pine session, they get another whole copy of the past e-mails (so some users got 3X or even 4X the past e-mails).
Am I missing something for the dovecot.conf setting, here is the entire configurations: Thanks in advance
protocols = pop3 pop3s imap_listen = [::] pop3_listen = [::] log_path = /var/log/dovecot login_dir = /var/run/dovecot-login login = imap login = pop3 default_mail_env = mbox:/asiaa/home/%u/:/asiaa/home/%u/mail/:INBOX=/var/m ail/%u:INDEX=/asiaa/home/%u/mail/dovecot_indexes mbox_locks = fcntl auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam auth_user = root
