Re: [imp] Anybody using imp with dovecot/imap?

Quoting Harlan Stenn harlan.st...@pfcs.com:


I'm having no luck with imp (4.3.9) when accessing IMAP folders that are
managed by dovecot (1.2.14).


I use IMP 4.3.10-cvs with dovecot 1.2.11 without problems.


I have tried messages with and without initial From  lines.


Using mbox then?  I use mbox.  Couldn't help any with any other format...


If you are successfully using imp and dovecot together, would you please
be so kind as to send me your config files so I could compare them with
mine?


If need be, but I doubt it would help.

BTW, I can reproduce the problem with very large mbox files, but otherwise
it works fine...  An mbox file of 3-4GiB will create this problem on
an intermittent problem on my server.  Smaller mbox files (2GiB or less)
have no such problems.  I've not had one issue with smaller mbox files
(less than 2 GiB).


I'm using virtual domains with dovecot, in case that matters.


I'm not.  It very well may matter, or not...

I've had a couple of responses (thanks guys!) and I wanted to add that
while it shouldn't matter because I'm using IMAP and tbird-IMAP sees
the messages just fine, the back=end is using Maildir.

however.  Imp sees the correct number of read/total messages in a
folder, but when trying to display the messages, all I get is There are
no messages in this mailbox.  It has been suggested this is a cclient
problem, but so far I haven't figured out what it could be.

FWIW, I've authored a fair bit of the IMP code and I use Dovecot as my  
primary IMAP server to develop with for 5+ years.

I recall a similar issue long ago, and I had to futz with namespaces in
dovecot.conf.  I'm not sure if it's still required, but I did see the 'no
subfolders' symptoms at some point, maybe even dovecot pre1.0..

namespace {
  inbox = yes
  location =
  prefix = INBOX.
  separator = .
  type = private
}

Thanks for the pointer, Michael.  I'll re-compile these bits and see if
it helps (easy enough to do - I installed from the FreeBSD ports tree).
