Re: [Dovecot] Connection to server time out when deleting (moving to Trash)

Hi,

Running:

• Dovecot 1.0 rc15
• Debian Sarge Linux

Using Maildir and IMAP over SSL.

When trying to delete a lot of mail (> 5000-6000 messages) in some folder, using Mozilla Thunderbird (1.5.0.7) on Ubuntu, I often experience "Connection to server <hostname> timed out." Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

"Empty Trash" seem to work fine, so I guess this is related to moving a lot of mail from one folder to another (Thrash)?

I have exactly the same problem here. Solaris 10, dovecot 1.0rc2, maildir, maildir space on a netapp filer mounted via NFS, Thunderbird 1.5.7

I think in my case the filesystem is to slow. Could that be?
