Hi List!
I have an issue with dovecot: Outlook express users sometimes can't see some emails (they are not even listed) that can be seen with other IMAP clients, I tested it (and it works) with Evolution, Outlook and SquirrelMail (a web mail).
Please note that this is not the client bug reported at http://dovecot.org/clients.html with the message: "Message is no longer available on this server"
I have the following configuration:
- Postfix as MTA (ver. 2.1), using the Maildir format to store messages.
- Dovecot 0.99.10.4_2 serving POP3 and IMAP.
Relevant dovecot config: client_workarounds = oe6-fetch-no-newmail outlook-idle default_mail_env = maildir:/%h/Maildir
Something important is that I am using freebsd 4.9, and dovecot is installed from ports (/usr/ports/mail/dovecot)
Does anyone has the solution for this problem, or at least an idea of what causes it?
I hit this same issue, turned out to be that leaving mail_save_crlf =no fixed it (I had set it to yes). The issue could be duplicated by moving messages within webmail to inbox then popping them out. OE would experience display issues if mail_save_crlf = yes.
For what it is worth to anyone:
We are running dovecot on a fairly large user base subscription service, OS is fbsd, mbox format. It's not huge, we currently process around 210k messages a day, but it is a decent load. Web interface is a highly modified squirrelmail, imap proxy for the webmail, not using dovecot pop (I need more features in my popd, mainly ability to restrict by username), and a custom MTA. We don't yet allow outside access to imap, but plan to offer both imap and imaps after a 1.x release has proven stable. We currently run the latest 99.10.5 and found that it resolved the LF errors we were getting with the previous release.
