Hello,
i have a problem with some public folders in my testing environment. But after the series, here is my konfiguraion:
doveconf -n # 2.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 x86_64 Debian wheezy/sid hostname = ......................................... lda_mailbox_autocreate = yes lda_mailbox_autosubscribe = yes listen = * mail_debug = no mail_gid = 5000 mail_location = maildir:~:INDEX=/var/mail/indexes/%d/%n mail_plugins = acl mail_privileged_group = vmail mail_uid = 5000 managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace { list = children location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/public:INDEX=/var/mail/indexes/%d/public:CONTROL=/var/mail/controls/%d/public prefix = Public. separator = . subscriptions = no type = public } namespace inbox { hidden = no inbox = yes list = yes location = prefix = separator = . subscriptions = yes type = private } passdb { args = scheme=CRAM-MD5 username_format=%u /var/mail/vhosts/auth.d/%d/shadow driver = passwd-file } plugin { acl = vfile antispam_allow_append_to_spam = no antispam_backend = pipe antispam_pipe_program = /usr/local/bin/sa-learn-pipe.sh antispam_pipe_program_notspam_arg = --ham antispam_pipe_program_spam_arg = --spam antispam_pipe_tmpdir = /tmp antispam_spam = Spam antispam_trash = Trash sieve = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve/users/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve sieve_before = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve/%d/before sieve_dir = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve/users/%d/%n sieve_global_dir = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve/%d/global sieve_user_log = /var/mail/vhosts/sieve/users/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve.log } postmaster_address = postmaster@..... protocols = " imap lmtp sieve pop3" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } unix_listener auth-userdb { mode = 0660 user = vmail } } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/private/................................. ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/......................... userdb { args = username_format=%u /var/mail/vhosts/auth.d/%d/passwd driver = passwd-file } protocol lmtp { mail_plugins = acl sieve } protocol lda { log_path = /var/log/sieve.log mail_plugins = acl sieve } protocol imap { imap_idle_notify_interval = 24 mins mail_plugins = acl imap_acl antispam } protocol sieve { managesieve_implementation_string = Dovecot Pigeonhole managesieve_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o }
the problem is that any, not all public folder appear empty. if I delete the index files, I see the emails again for a while(1-2 hours) until they're gone again sometime. The directories change their content not for weeks. It is a test environment. but in one of the folders are more than 13000 mails (the Faxbox). Currently 3 of 13 folders are affected. I thought that it may be due to the size, but it is not the largest folders. For normal mail boxes I have not observed this effect.
