not reproducible but when it occurred, its stuck: in the early transition to dovecot I would notice occasionally that messages would come up, I would delete them and then something would hang causing a major delay in the (Mozilla) e-mail client's response. When the system responded, I would notice that occasionally there would be an off by one offset between the index of messages and the message displayed. This error would persist until I killed off the index and the dovecot process.
just ended up with a message that displayed the entire header. Will look into this more but it's very strange.
Corrupted messages with Mozilla sounds a bit like the bug I fixed in 0.99.10.. You don't happen to be using CR+LF linefeeds? Or alternatively it's just some mbox weirdness. I haven't noticed that myself though..
- very reproducible: after fetching messages from my inbox, there will be a long (30 sec.) delay. Dovecot demon is clearly busy doing something. I do have a large set of filter rules (approximately 150) sorting messages into different boxes. Is this a reason to switch to maildir?
You could check with strace -p pid what imap process is doing. Or if those filter rules are done by client and one message at a time doing COPY + EXPUNGE, it's really no wonder.
I'd suggest maildir anyway, it probably fixes your other problems too :)
