[Dovecot] Dovecot on Mac - Entourage cannot fetch emails
Hi,
Dovecot 1.1.3 is running on Mac OS X 10.5 latest version, with Maildir (LAYOUT=fs). I have following issues when Entourage 2008 connects it, over imap/imaps.
Entourage does not cache the mails. After every restart the folder contents are fetched fresh. I have enabled the Entourage option to get entire messages. Entourage caches the gmail IMAP folders fine. Also Outlook 2007 does not have this problem while connecting to the same IMAP server.
I have some big folders with a few thousands of emails. Entourage fails with Error: 4362 (Mail could not be retrieved this time) while fetching mails from these folders. Restarting and rebuilding the Entourage database did not fix this issue.
Any tips to resolve these issues or to debug what is going on would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Bijoy

No idea.
Enabling rawlog to see what Entourage is talking to Dovecot might show something, like if the last command it sends fails: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Debugging/Rawlog

I looked at the rawlog output. The dovecot server is doing fine. It is responding normally to the FETCH commands, but after a few batch fetches, the Entourage server closes connection.
I switched to Mail.app for the time being, and it is working great.
I assume that both the problems reported above are due to IMAP impl issues on Entourage.
Thanks for your tip.
