Happy holidays! I am experiencing an issue when trying to check my mail using IMAP. with Dovecot I have tried checking my mail using a full GUI client (Thunderbird) and telnet. Both times I get disconnected before all of my messages can be downloaded and I see an error in my mail log. Here are the details:
[root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]# dovecot --version 2.0.9
[root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]# dovecot -n # 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5 x86_64 CentOS release 5.4 (Final) disable_plaintext_auth = no login_trusted_networks = 172.19.136.0 mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_max_userip_connections = 100 mbox_write_locks = fcntl mmap_disable = yes passdb { args = scheme=plain username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } protocols = imap ssl = no userdb { args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } [root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]#
i try to check my mail:
username@ops1-1-domain:~$ telnet cust19-1-prod-domain imap Trying 172.19.136.223... Connected to cust19-1-prod-domain.domain.net (172.19.136.223). Escape character is '^]'.

I get some binary output and some mail headers, but then it crashes..
Not sure if you guys want to see all of the extremely verbose output, so I put it at the end of this message. The last messages that it processes is a message with an Excel spreadsheet attached to it (a .xlsx file)
i enabled core dumps:
echo 'DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT="unlimited"' >> /etc/sysconfig/dovecot
Now I see this in /var/log/maillog:
2012-12-25T17:53:47-08:00 cust19-1-prod-domain dovecot: master: Error: service(imap): child 11265 killed with signal 11 (core dumped)
core dumps are being written here, but they're empty:
[root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]# pwd /mnt/mail/userqa [root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]# ls -lh total 20K -rw------- 1 userqa userqa 0 Dec 25 17:52 core.11111 -rw------- 1 userqa userqa 0 Dec 25 17:53 core.11265 -rw------- 1 userqa userqa 0 Dec 25 17:58 core.11812 drwx------ 7 userqa userqa 4.0K Dec 25 17:58 Maildir [root@cust19-1-prod-domain userqa]#
What should I try now? Is it possible that Dovecot is having difficulty processing the attachment file? If I delete this user's mailbox file and send basic text e-mail to the user I can read/retrieve them just fine.. there only seems to be an issue when this message with its attachment arrives. The attachment seems small in size:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="report_amex.xlsx"; size=20527;
That means the attachment is 20527 bytes, correct?
Thank you for any suggestions/help you can offer!
Here's the message that it seems to be having issues with:
