A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== http://www.dbmail.org/mantis/view.php?id=244 ====================================================================== Reported By: postgresql Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: DBMail Issue ID: 244 Category: IMAP daemon Reproducibility: sometimes Severity: major Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 15-Aug-05 08:55 CEST Last Modified: 27-Aug-05 16:56 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: Server has to be restarted from time to time Description: We are trying to run dbmail on our company-mailserver. The problem is that we have to restart dbmail at least twice a week because dbmail is not able to establish new connections anymore. In addition to that Mac OS X 10.4 (Mail tool) reports quite a lot of connection errors. >From my point of view there are some bugs in the implementation of the IMAP protocol because even Mozilla mail causes problems from time to time.
Currently we feel that there is a large market for something like dbmail but we cannot use that for customers because it doesn't seem reliable yet. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- paul - 15-Aug-05 09:03 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, it is known dbmail will stop accepting connections from time to time. But I would very much like to hear more about the OS X connection errors. I havent heard about any of those recently. I would also like to hear more about the mozilla problems since I use mozilla (tb) all the time. Unless you provide specific information we can act on, I'll have to close this report. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Arabian - 27-Aug-05 15:30 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I have the same problem happened few days ago in FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE the DB was MySQL 5.0.9 How can I send you useful info if this happned again to the IMAPD? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- postgresql - 27-Aug-05 16:56 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- the problem with mozilla seems to happen in case of large mailboxes. the strange thing is: it CAN happen (not always) that an emails stays "unread" after being read. this happens especially when i jump around between various mailboxes inside one mozilla / tb. i did not find a "rule" for this behaviour yet but it seems to happen more often when dealing with brand new mails. as far as the OS X issue is concerned: in some cases i get the "attention" symbol. again, no rule when this issue happens. i would be happy if i could provide me useful information or even a patch but things seem to be completely random. hans Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 15-Aug-05 08:55 postgresql New Issue 15-Aug-05 09:03 paul Note Added: 0000821 27-Aug-05 15:29 Arabian Note Added: 0000887 27-Aug-05 15:30 Arabian Note Edited: 0000887 27-Aug-05 16:56 postgresql Note Added: 0000888 ======================================================================
