Update to the problem:

I tried to stress the server with many moving and I received:

Sep 26 10:56:40 sirio3 dovecot: IMAP(): Trying to allocate 0 bytes Sep 26 10:56:40 sirio3 dovecot: IMAP(): Raw backtrace: imap [0x479efc] -> imap [0x4797fc] -> imap [0x48188f] -> imap [0x449f03] -> imap [0x44a247] -> imap(index_storage_search_init+0x139) [0x44a559] -> imap(cmd_store+0x1bc) [0x418dcc] -> imap(cmd_uid+0x52) [0x419312] -> imap [0x41a1a2] -> imap [0x41a16c] -> imap(client_input+0x188) [0x41a438] -> imap(io_loop_handler_run+0x139) [0x47fa29] -> imap(io_loop_run+0x28) [0x47ee88] -> imap(main+0x3f2) [0x4211c2] -> /lib64/tls/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xdb) [0x3bef51c4bb] -> imap [0x41476a] Sep 26 10:56:40 sirio3 dovecot: child 3666 (imap) killed with signal 6

Hi to all,

I am using the new beta release 1.1.

I am experiencing, after the upgrade to the 1.1beta some problems regarding the following scenario:

I am conneted with Outlook to dovecot server using IMAP. I have many folders and I want to move an email from a folder to another using drag and drop. I see that when I move the email, the IMAP process goes to 90-95% for about 5 seconds and after, the mail is finally moved. I noticed that this operation sometimes (20% about) is again fast. There is no problem of overload of the server because this mail server, at the moment, manage just 1 email address.

Before the upgrade to 1.1beta, this operation was very very fast.

Is there a way to try to debug the IMAP process for understanding what is happening?

Thank you for your help. Stefano.
