Hi
I am using Dovecot 0.99.12.1 (just upgraded) on a site with about 1500 mailboxes. One thing I have noticed is when the client outlook express is receiving a large mail via pop3 it gets a time out. There is traffic. If you click on the "wait" button in the dialogue the mail continues to download.
This seem to relate to the "Server Timeouts" setting under mail account Properties/advance. If this setting is set higher the dialogue come only after this time has passed.
If the mail take a long time to download if say is very big the user may have to click "Wait" a number of time even if the time out setting is set to the largest amount.
It funny because the mail is downloading, So the pop3 server has not stopped responding as outlook express say it has. Strange.
What is happening here? and is there a work around for it. Do I have a setting wrong.
