here is my new doveconf-n:
# 2.0.17 (684381041dc4+): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: OpenBSD 5.1 i386 auth_debug_passwords = yes auth_verbose = yes auth_verbose_passwords = sha1 mail_debug = yes mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mbox_write_locks = fcntl mmap_disable = yes passdb { driver = bsdauth } ssl_cert =
now the retrieving pop-up window gets closed almost immediately but no messages get downloaded! Also the detailed debigging doesn't show any extra info in the log! The only info that I still get is:
Jul 31 15:16:23 [myserver] dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<user>, method=PLAIN, rip=x.x.x.x, lip=x.x.x.x, mpid=26976, TLS
Thanks

Dear list members,
first my doveconf -n output:
# 2.0.17 (684381041dc4+): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: OpenBSD 5.1 i386 ffs mail_location = mbox:/var/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mbox_write_locks = fcntl mmap_disable = yes passdb { driver = bsdauth } ssl_cert =
when using evolution from a remote linux machine, and try to download/fetch the e-mails from my e-mail server, I get a pop-up window indicationg that is trying to do so (after I did sign-in with my user-id and password!). The problem is taht this process stays there forever and no messages get downloaded!
Your mail_location setting looks a little bit strange to me. I'd suggest to use: mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
If that shouldn't solve the issue, make Dovecot more verbose: mail_debug = yes
