I have been trying to track down the cause of message files being truncated on my users mailboxes. I have been working through a set of strange network errors and timeouts and during this time the number of con-current logins (imap and pop) to the mailbox increases. (I have users connected 15 sessions simutaniously). During these times I have seen some mailbox messages being truncated (0 bytes). Is there anything anywhere in the IMAP server that given a particular bad set of network/race conditions be causing this.
The IMAP server never writes or modifies existing messages. The only messages the IMAP server adds to the mailbox are messages that are uploaded by the IMAP client. The IMAP server has nothing to do with delivering new mail. The IMAP server's primary objective is to provide access to existing messages. How they wound up in the mailbox, is not something an IMAP server cares about.
