Hi folks,
$ diff dovecot.conf dovecot-example.conf
< mail_location = mbox:~:INBOX=/var/mail/%u:INDEX=%h/Mail/imapd-indices
That one does sound a bit fishy. Are the index files even compatible to each other?
Other than that, a little bit of info: like MySQL DB integration, autoresponders, spam/virusscan and so on and
- Dovecot running on two different servers, providing IMAP and POP3 (both with and without SSL)
- Storage format is maildir
- MTA is sendmail, MDA is a custom bit of software doing funky stuff
so forth
- LDA is dovecots delivery agent, plopping mails pre-sorted into various folders
- One server has about 50 users out of which 15 use IMAP, the rest uses POP3, the other server has about 10 IMAP-only users.
- Mail quota is set to 5GByte for both servers
- Clients use Outlook/Outlook Express/Thunderbird - the latter with check_quota plugin
Biggest single folder size is around 1.5GByte, no idea how many mails. Average access time to that folder from Thunderbird is about 15 seconds or so for initial loading, pretty much instant when opening any mail in there. Indexing it from scratch takes quite a bit longer though, about 7 minutes.
Hope that helps Jen
