[Dovecot] Strange index problem
Hi,
OK, I have 2 servers accessing the same mailboxes via NFS (indexes on each servers local HDD). They are on a round robin connection system. I have had a mailbox (customer using Eudora for Mac and storing mail for a certain amount of days) that on one server says there are 281 messages and the other says there are 194 messages. Of course this leads to re-downloading the difference. The mails that are invisible to the second machine are not sequential, they are at random places in the mailbox. Deleting the indexed on the machine that is inconsistent seems to fix it.
We seem to get this problem about once a week or 2 over 6000 mailboxes.
Regards Andrew
