The only thing I had initially configured was vsz_limit, but as the
number of clients grew, the number of dovecot/config processes grew, and
with that I added idle_kill and service_count to try to minimize the use
of ram memory
In dovecot 2.2.33.2 , another server, has the same amount of
Hello,
I tested the suggestion to decrease the service_count and the accounts
stopped logging in, then I gradually increased it to 500, and now it's
working. But the dovecot/config processes are still being created, there
has been no change for the better.
Now I have an error constantly
I'm having strange behavior in dovecot 2.3.16.
It's opening dozens of dovecot/config process and consuming all server
memory. Normally each process consumes between 700Mb and 1Gb of ram.
Would anyone have an idea about this?
service config {
vsz_limit = 2048M
idle_kill = 60s
soon after starting dovecot these errors start to appear. I will send
the first errors after doing a service dovecot start

Hi, I'm using ubuntu 22.04 and installed dovecot 2.3.16.
I did some initial testing with 100 email accounts and everything seemed
to work perfectly the same as dovecot version 2.3.16 on another server.
So I performed the migration of approximately 30 thousand email
accounts, but the following
Hello, my name is Filipe
I'm migrating an email server to another new server. Accounts have their
storage configured as mdbox and their index being saved in another
storage device. I want to migrate all messages to the new server with a
new storage mode, sdbox.
The new server will have
How much mail do you have to migrate? Do you convert mbox to Maildir?
Please, let us know how did it go.
Good luck with it!!!

If Local folders are under ~/Mail/ - this is OK.
But you were saying your local messages are under ~/Maildir/ - the same
as dovecot-accessed.
And this is wrong. This might be working fine, but still, this is wrong.

Thunderbird? If not, try it.
I might have more questions for you later depending on your answers.
P.S. Forget about procmail for now.
P.P.S. I have very simple config like yours on one of my servers (no
procmail) and IMAPS works fine.

to me. However I'm really bad with programming and cat
rely on my own script for such an important task.
P.S. not sure how dovecot handles pop3 UID's. In my case I need
preserving UIDs in imap-to-imap (mbox-to-Maildir) migration.
FiL
, but it isn't pretty. And
this is the only reason I don't migrate to Maildir. I really want to do it,
but this is not something I can do to my users.
