Dave,

Thanks for testing and persevering. Unless there are logs from Samsung Mail, then dbmail logs are probably the most useful. If you turn up debugging in dbmail.conf file_logging_levels you can see what's happening, level 511 might be too much but should show what happened before it froze.

Also what database and version are you using.

Regards,
Alan

Alan,

After one day it isn't working. Same symptom as before. I've not put my "modified" version back yet, but probably will soon.

When I tested it right after installing the fix, it seemed to work. I sent several test messages and they appeared on the android phone and in Thunderbird as expected. When I "read" them, that updated between devices as expected. But, I noticed at the end of the day that my phone stopped working.

The symptom is that my cellphone (using Samsung Mail) stops updating. The only way I've gotten it to update is to remove the mail account and re-add it.  But that then only downloads the mail at that point.  It still doesn't update.  I've not figured out why exactly, but if I modify the advertised features of the IMAP server, it works.  I use Thunderbird on my Windows desktop and that has always mostly worked, with my change in the advertised features it sometimes stops updating, but I can close and reopen it and it starts working again.

I'm willing to test and provide log files. Just tell me what you need.

Thank you for your help.

Thanks,
Dave

Alan,

Thank you for the notice that a fix was pushed.  I just downloaded and complied it. My initial testing shows it is fixed.  I've installed it on my production server and will continue to watch. If there is anything seeming wrong, I'll let you know.

Thank you very much for spending time on this project. I really love it.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi,

Is this still an issue? A fix for MODSEQ related to CONDSTORE was pushed a few days ago that should have resolved this one.

Kind regards,

Bobby,

The reason for finally upgrading to a newer version was the TLS support in the newer version.  With 2.2 I was able to run things through stunnel, but many clients, Outlook being one, started defaulting to STARTTLS instead of using the SSL port. This caused many of my users trouble setting up accounts on their computers. So, I decided to upgrade so STARTTLS would work.

Another reason for upgrading is that I has having trouble compiling the older 2.2 version on a newer OS. The older code needed older libraries and it was getting hard to get them all to work, while upgrading to newer code was easier.

When doing the upgrade, the most amount of time was spent doing the header conversion.  I recommend adding the entry "header_cache_readonly = yes" to dbmail.conf after you have the needed header name values. On my hardware with the number of messages I had it took over 4 months to do the conversion. (2.6 million messages.) If I had put that line in, it would have taken only a few weeks.

During the conversion I had two databases setup, dbmail22 and dbmail3, then added triggers to insert and delete rows when things changed in dbmail22 so the dbmail3 database had all the same messages. This way all my users could still use IMAP and when the conversion was done and tested, I just moved the IP from my old mail server to the new, running the new version, and there was only about half hour of downtime.

Other than this issue with CONDSTORE, which happened several weeks after I started using 3.2, I have had little trouble with the basic use of DBMail 3.2. I wish that dbmail-timsieved also supported STARTTLS, but I see that as optional and haven't opened that issue yet. I've also noticed that it takes 3 to 5 seconds to insert a message, which is tolerable for mail delivery, but when an IMAP client is moving messages to the server, it takes a LONG time, but this doesn't happen often.

I hope that some of these things help when you decide to upgrade to 3.2.

I still need help getting CONDSTORE working again!!!

Thanks,
Dave

Re: [Dbmail] IMAP issue with CONDSTORE Hello Dave,

I am still able to use DBMail 2.2.18 and I must say it's been maybe even 20 years since the first install. So, thank you for sharing this info, as I am planning an upgrade too, and because I have a similar problem with Outlook Mobile since a 2-3 months (don't remember exactly).
But I am not sure if the reason is not TLS related.

Please share details once you know more, if they are not provided in the list. Thank you!


Kind regards,
Bobby
