Good Morning,

I tried using gdb, but that doesn't work for me:

$ ulimit -c unlimited $ sudo systemctl restart dovecot $ sudo -E getmail getmail version 5.13 Copyright (C) 1998-2019 Charles Cazabon.  Licensed under the GNU GPL version 2.

Finally, I could find a file in /var/lib/systemd/coredump: -rw-r-----+ 1 root root 710416 30. Mai 08:54 core.deliver.1003.d14b28050b8343f5a60c5998ef3947df.19702.1559199286000000.lz4

This is obviously the required dump. However, I'd not attach such a file to a post to the mailing list, so where can I put that? Send it directly to You?

Kind regards

Peter

PS: I'm using Arch Linux - probably the hint above could be added to https://www.dovecot.org/bugreport-mail as a hint for other Arch users, as it's much easier than using gdb for those not using it?
