i see that due restart on any machine acting as IMAP/POP3 proxy why?
With what Dovecot version? And doveconf -n?
at least 2.2.14 and 2.2.15 with a really simple config
Nothing else is logged besides that error? Does the log process start later on? I can't really think of a good reason why it would happen
nothing else, see blow including "journalctl" output starting with the ssh-login and the service-status is showing "dovecot/log" finally Oct 25 18:19:56 srv-rhsoft dovecot: master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=1 uid=0 code=kill) Oct 25 18:19:56 srv-rhsoft dovecot: log: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=1 uid=0 code=kill) Oct 25 18:19:56 srv-rhsoft dovecot: master: Error: service(log): command startup failed, throttling for 2 secs Oct 25 18:19:56 srv-rhsoft dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.2.15 starting up for imap (core dumps disabled)
