[Dovecot] vpopmail directory permissions denied
by bclements＠io-networks.com 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

I've moved from a postfix setup to a qmail/vpopmail setup I've setup the dovecot.conf file for vpopmail That works fine, users can log in, but the problem is when they go to see their folders. Nothing is there. INBOX, Drafts, nothing. This is using any imap client, imp, evolution, outlook, outlook express This is using 99.14 and the latest vpopmail/qmail I looked at the directory structure and everything is there. The dovecot log file says something about permissions denied. I am using freebsd 4.10 Anybody have a clue on whats going on? -Brent ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

The problem is I don't know how to upload it to backports.org but while I get that sorted out you can get the files from http://www.braincells.com/backports/ (It's not aptable, you'll have to download the packages and manually install them with dpkg -i) -- Jaldhar H.

[Dovecot] Strange index problem
by Andrew Hutchings 09 Aug '05

09 Aug '05

Hi, OK, I have 2 servers accessing the same mailboxes via NFS (indexes on each servers local HDD). They are on a round robin connection system. I have had a mailbox (customer using Eudora for Mac and storing mail for a certain amount of days) that on one server says there are 281 messages and the other says there are 194 messages. Of course this leads to re-downloading the difference. The mails that are invisible to the second machine are not sequential, they are at random places in the mailbox. Deleting the indexed on the machine that is inconsistent seems to fix it. We seem to get this problem about once a week or 2 over 6000 mailboxes.

[Dovecot] Re: Problem with dovecot and system crashing
by Paul Vatta 09 Aug '05

09 Aug '05

We have experienced similar problems with version 0.99.11 that comes with Redhat Enterprise Linux 4. If I'm not wrong, it appears to be related to the number of file descripters available to the dovecot user. To abate the situation, we stop the service, kill any remaining dovecot processes (some hang around), and then restart dovecot. Sometimes it appears that the limit of connection processes isn't honoured (as defined in the conf file) so the number can spiral out of control. I hope this helps in the absense of a workaround. Let me know if there is an obvious configuration setting to remedy this.

[Dovecot] out of disk space notification
by David Weilers 08 Aug '05

08 Aug '05

Hi Dovecot readers, My server (squirrelmail) provides me with the following error-message when selecting a mailbox (trash): ERROR : Could not complete request. Query: SELECT "Trash" Reason Given: Out of disk space The user is not over quota but for some reason dovecot still thinks this to be true. Can anyone give me a hint for finding a solution for this problem. I have installed: dovecot-0.99.10.9-2.0.rh9.dag Thanks in advance.. David
