I am having a problem with Dovecot and imap; users are not being able to empty their trash from time to time. Here is what I am running:
[root@xxxx root]# rpm -q dovecot dovecot-0.99.13-3.FC3 [root@xxxx root]# uname -a Linux xxxx 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp #1 SMP Fri Oct 21 04:03:26 EDT 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [root@xxxx root]#
Several times a week different users get the following pop up message when they empty trash (manually by selecting "delete trash" on their mail client):
"The current command did not succeed. The mail server responded: Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. {2006-02-22 08:46:24]."
The quick and dirty fix is to go into their home dir and empty the trash folder (ie "> Trash"). I have checked the log and do not see anything useful at the time noted in the pop up error message on the users client. I have now set up logging to separate files to make debugging a bit easier:
log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-info.log
Most of my users are using Netscape for mail. I have searched the web and archives of this list with little luck. Some people mention issues with quota but I am not running quota.
Has anyone seen this or can point me in the right direction to debug this problem further ?
