[Dovecot] Errors with a blackberry
Hi -
We tried to access a dovecot-0.99.10.7 IMAPS server with a Blackberry 7230. The Blackberry was on loan so we don't have much access to it for testing.
We got the following in our logs:
Jul 27 12:30:27 xserv imap-login: Login: testuser [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] Jul 27 12:30:27 xserv imap(testuser): IndexID mismatch for binary tree file /home/testuser/mail//.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.tree Jul 27 12:30:27 xserv imap(testuser): IndexID mismatch for binary tree file /home/testuser/mail//.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.tree Jul 27 12:30:27 xserv imap(testuser): IndexID mismatch for modify log file /home/testuser/mail//.imap/INBOX/.imap.index.log
Apparently the blackberry didn't see the new mail.
Has anyone had any luck with such a Blackberry?
Thanks
Jeremy

These aren't actually errors. It means the main index file was just recreated and the other files were now recreated too. The real error message which caused the index to destroy itself was probably earlier.

It looks like you're right. Thanks. Now that we've had a proper play with the device, it actually seems to work fine. The original errors were probably because I didn't read the NFS part of the docs before using dovecot. We're using dovecot as an IMAPS server, and Blackberry's SMTP service to send the mail.
