But the mailclients (mostly thunderbird and apple mail) still reporte the timeouts by accessing the mailboxes.
The server is doing smtp, imap/pop3, webmailsystem and spam/antivirus-checking all together. (RH EL 5, sendmail, horde, mysql, mailscanner, spamassassin)
We use the original RH dovecot-1.0.7, mbox-format and mailboxes up to 4 GB ... (historicaly grown ...)
Have you set mbox_very_dirty_syncs=yes?
So where to start debugging the imap/pop3 timeouts? What information may I provide, which doc may I read?
Anything in logs? Anyway my guess is that it spends all the time reading those 4 GB mailboxes..
