Re: Fwd: Dsync replication - delayed replication (Sync lock)
Did you check what process the locking PID was?

Re: Fwd: Dsync replication - delayed replication (Sync lock)
Hi,
we have the same issue and the same configuration except for Dovecot
version, ours is the latest into Dovecot repo; in addition we do not
have DNS round robin.
Does anybody have a solution?
Kind regards

Hi,
*Our setup:*
Two Debian 10 machines that are setup to replicate mail between them,
we have round robin DNS setup so a user can connect to either server.
*What should happen:*
Mail is delivered to either server and replicated across straight away
to their mailbox on the other server so it does not matter which one
they are connected to they will receive it fairly soon after delivery.
*What actually happens:*
In some instances the user will experience a delayed receipt of
messages if they are not connected to the server that the message is
initially delivered to, sometimes the delay is 5/10 minutes, we had a
recent support ticket submitted where it was over an hour.

Dear Sirs,
Further to my last email have any list members seen this before and are

I should note as well that we are running Dovecot from the upstream
