I am getting random disconnects from my imap session, dificulties to revconnect, very sluggish behaviour when changing between mail folders also frequent and rapidly repititive messages on te client "mailserver x.x.x.x is not a imap4 server"
I am running dovecot 1.0.rc2 from ports on OpenBSD 4.0 on a PIII, 500MHz 512MB
My set up is very small - a webserver with a single imap account on it for myself and my wife and a pop3 account for a printserver. The clients are both Thunderbird on Linux (Ubuntu7.04 and Ubuntu 6.06
I have overall maybe 6000 mails distributed over all folders.
The maillog file looks like this:
Aug 31 20:51:44 apache dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<my-login>, method=plain, rip=y.y.y.y, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:51:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:52:22 apache dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: rip=y.y.y.y, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:52:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:52:57 apache dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: rip=y.y.y.y, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:53:33 apache last message repeated 3 times Aug 31 20:53:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:54:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:55:03 apache dovecot: IMAP(my-login): Disconnected: Logged out Aug 31 20:55:52 apache dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: rip=y.y.y.z, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:55:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:56:15 apache dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: rip=y.y.y.y, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:56:30 apache last message repeated 3 times Aug 31 20:56:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:56:57 apache dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Inactivity: rip=y.y.y.y, lip=x.x.x.x, TLS Aug 31 20:57:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 20:58:57 apache dovecot: pipe() failed: Too many open files Aug 31 21:00:57 apache last message repeated 2 times Aug 31 21:03:57 apache last message repeated 3 times
My dovecot -n looks like this:
