Hi Steffen,

I am migrating servers. The old one has been running 24/7 for 12 years and was never updated.

I just copied all the eMail files, they are mounted via NFS. The old server was running Dovecot 2.0.16, the new one 2.3.1 (8e2f634)

Perhaps the "old" permissions are wrong?

I saw what your link refers to - still get the same error messages

In an attempt to find out what the problem is I have now done the following:

installed dovecot on my laptop my data is mounted per NFS started Thunderbird

I get exectly the same messages

I then copied my data onto a local partition of my hard drive laptop and mount this as my $HOME

The reasoning behind this: eliminte any problems coming from NFS.

Again - the same error messages.

Most worrying is that when I fire up Thunderbird I get:

SERVERBUG internal error

You run a security layer like SELinux?

And forget about whatever error message the MUA spits out, read the dovecot log output and fix what it reports. It is not a dovecot bug (serverbug) anyhow.

Everything is written in the message. Wrong permission means that dovecot can't write to some directories. Simply check...

Ummm... have you ever managed a mail server before?

If so, I think you need to start with the very basics, and RTFM - more than once maybe.

If not, then that is your problem...
