Re: Outlook 365 MUA produces dovecot changing filename on some mailbox
ith recent epoch time on filename... Take a look at the timestamp on filenames: 1662769412 corresponds to "Fri Sep 9 20:23:32 -04 2022" and 1662874176 corresponds to Sun Sep 11 01:29:36 -04 2022 but mails were neither sent nor received on that dates. What is Outlook requesting imap server to do and how to avoid this? What is the outlook client version? What are your connection settings? Have you looked in the logs on the dovecot server side to see what they say? Outlook 365 is version 16.15601.20148 compilation 2208 on one workstation that exhibits the issue and this same version on another PC on which this issue is not present... What working clients are your users using today? Are they working properly with older clients? Basically I'm the mail server administrator not the sysadmin on the network. All users prefer working with O365. I've installed Thunderbird on every PC but users refuses to use it in favor of using Outlook, unfortunately. Basically, you have to assume we know nothing and explain your setup and configuration to us like we're idiots who don't know anything. Spell out all the details please. :-) Yes, I'm sorry. I hope with this mail I've clarified the scenario. Thanks again! Emilio

The GNUS mail client developers would like to add quirk to workaround this problem in its mail client, any idea which version should be affected by this problem? Thank you & best regards, Emilio

Timo said the bug doesn't corrupt data, but IMVHO a case could be made for stable-updates. I get around 100-200 duplicated mails a day, so it really hampers the usability of the package with my mail client (gnus). Also, it seems that the bug be prevent people to use dsync and other sync tools with Dovecot. Luca, does the patch fix your dsync issues? Unfortunately, I can't properly test the patch with 2.2.13, my mail servers have really low mail volume to consider them "testing". Best, Emilio

Streaming MOVE commands
Dear Dovecot devs,
is streaming multiple MOVE commands by clients allowed?
I am getting duplicated messages with the GNUS mail client, the
interchange looks like this:
*stream two moves to different folders*
> 9019 UID MOVE 4062,4066,4068 "folder0"
> 9020 UID MOVE 4063:4064,4067,4069:4072 "folder1"
*the messages are copied*
> * OK [COPYUID 1424475218 4062,4066,4068 376:378] Moved UIDs.
> * OK [COPYUID 1424475231 4063:4064,4067,4069:4072 26:32] Moved UIDs.
*however expunge fails to clean 4063, 4064, and 4067*
> * VANISHED 4062,4066,4068:4072
thus 4063, 4064, and 4067 end both in inbox and folder1 producing
duplicate messages (more details at [1]).
At the GNUS mailing list, we were wondering about what should be the
correct reading of RFC6851.
Version and config information below.

[Dovecot] How to purge mailboxes manually [dovecot_1.2.15]
Hi, we have a linux network at the office. Mainly ubuntu and debian systems. Each user has it's own mail client, thunderbird, evolution, etc. In the mail server we use as the local delivery agent, dovecot 1.2.15 and the protocol imap. The users mailbox are in the server at /var/mail. Due to some kind of problem the mails that are set for delete in the mail client are not being deleted in the mailbox (if we check the mbox the mails are marked to be purged). Unless the owner uses something lowlevel shell mail client like pine to do the purge, the mails start to pile filling the account. Is this some known bug with a fix, or is there some routine we can run as admins to actually purged the mails set for deletion? (Like the "doveadm purge" in dovecot 2.0) Thanks a lot, looking forward to your answers, Emilio P.S: we would really like not having to install dovecot 2.0 :)
Re: [Dovecot] Auto rebuild indexes?
I have another easy question for you, Timo: When cache files were deleted because some corruption, is there a way to regenerate all cache files in all accounts? I'm talking about 300GB of mails distributed in 40 accounts using Maildir; when all users tried to access their mailboxes with their MUA at the same time, dovecot produced a high load average in the server making it unusable, so would be useful a function that instructs dovecot to check all cache files and regenerate the missing or corrupted ones while no user is accesing its mailbox. Is that possible?
