after the update I noticed that the error messages didn't go away for a little time. Also seeing the high load and high kernel cpu usage I did some changes to the /etc/fstab (adding noatime,nodiratime) to /var /home partitions. Also the dovecot -n now is like this: auth_mechanisms = plain login default_login_user = dovecot disable_plaintext_auth = no dotlock_use_excl = yes mail_access_groups = mail mail_fsync = never mail_location = mbox:~/.:INBOX=/var/mail/%u mmap_disable = yes passdb { driver = pam } ssl_cert = </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key = </etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem userdb { driver = passwd } I see that for about 2-3 days now the error has gone away, and dovecot is running ok, but the high load is continually present, and I suspect of disk I/O latency. Again thank you for your support. Enid
