Hi All,
I have Dovecot 1.0 Alpha3 running on x86_64 Linux 2.6 multi-CPU box using Maildir folders. Moving messages from one folder to another in Thunderbird 1.0.7, regardless of their size (usually small), produced error 83, "Out of memory", when both of these parameters were unset (default): mail_read_mmaped, mmap_disable. The log line before the error was pool_system_malloc(): Out of memory. I initially changed mmap_disable to "yes", the error stopped, but it still wasn't moving messages reliably. I then set MM parameters more aggressively: mail_read_mmaped = yes, mmap_disable = no (and the third of the series, mmap_no_write, is left unset). The error stopped popping up, and the moving works speedily. Maybe the default for mail_read_mmaped should be "yes?" Thank you!
Sergey.
