Hi, i've a question for you. I've two dovecot imap/pop server behind a zen load balancer. Load balancing is made by lx4nat so the public ip address of my load balancer contact directly the dovecot servers. Since few months i've a message from thunderbird that i've reached the imap limit login for ip. I've triend to increase the max user ip parameter but sometimes i've the same problem. It's a strange things that actually i'm able to mitigate by reduce the number of cached connections in Thunderbird but it's not normal. What do you think about that? Maybe there's some tuning that you can suggest. Thank you, Paolo
Have you ensured, by checking logs, that the connections are seen by dovecot to come from public IP addresses?
Also, thunderbird is known to open lots of concurrent connections.
Aki Yes, connections are coming from the ip address of load balancer (also checked with a netstat -an) If connection are seen as coming from the IP address of the load balancer, isn't it normal that dovecot complains ? That means that dovecot sees all connections as coming from a single client, which would explain why you reach that limit.
Yeah of course, but i've checked that i haven't reach the max_user_per_ip limit by counting dovecot process coming from that ip address. So the strange and the reason why i'm writing to you :)
