I have been using dmail on various flavors of Linux for several years now and have never gotten this problem. I HAVE had this problem when delivering into mbox format-- at more than 50MB it just doesn't work. The problem in fact created the need to switch to dmail and mbx in the first place.
Speaking of which, I have always wondered why mbx isn't the default format for mail delivery "out of the tarball" and instead have mbox need to be manually switched on instead of vice versa. Every time a new version of UW-IMAP come out I have to delve into the code and manually switch everything to mbx. The UW docs do everything but state that mbx is the uber-format for mail and that mbox sucks, which is the truth. Why not lead the charge here? n ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 1:16 PM Subject: dmail maximum mailbox size > dmail seems to stop working properly when my mailbox size hits 50MB. i have > procmail configured to use dmail to deliver to my inbox, when the mailbox > hits 50MB it stops growing which corrupts the mailbox. once the mailbox is > full dmail delivers to temp files in the same directory as the mailbox. > > i am currently using dmail from the imap-2002e distribution. i have seen > this behavior from imap-2001a dist as well. my host platform is solaris 8 > SPARC. > > any help would be appreciated. > > _________________________________________________________________ > Get MSN 8 Dial-up Internet Service FREE for one month.
