Search is uninterruptable
by van der Kamp, John 01 Mar '21

Hi, When a user is doing a search, and the data is not indexed, then a search can take a very long time. It seems that search process is uninterruptable. The IMAP connection gets a status message with an ETA every so often, but an administrator on the server cannot stop it. Any SIGTERM or doveadm kick is ignored. Also, when the client times out (it seems clients are not seeing the ETA as a reason to keep the connection open) and the client disconnects is this search process continuing, even though any write to the socket would return an error. I believe the server is stuck in this loop: https://github.com/dovecot/core/blob/master/src/lib-storage/index/index-sea… Somehow the server needs to check for disconnected clients and let the session be kicked from the server too. You probably know better what to do about this then me.

dsync and sieve again
by Edgaras Lukoševičius 01 Mar '21

Hi, I'm starting to wonder if dsync is supposed to sync sieve scripts at all? Or should it work only as a part of replicator? Because I was not able to get it working on multiple Dovecot and Pigeon versions, and I see lots of replication/dsync and sieve related questions in the mailing list. I'm trying to get it to work using latest versions on http://repo.dovecot.org/ce-2.3-latest repo. The versions I am testing at the moment are: - Dovecot 2.3.13 (89f716dc2) - Pigeonhole 0.5.13 (cdd19fe3) It's a straightforward setup, nothing fancy. So the question is - is it supposed to work at all without replicator?
