[Courier-imap] Maildir problem - maintenance or delete/recreate?
Hi, Ok, I've been using courier-imap for quite a while and never had a problem, but I guess its bound to happen sooner or later. Server: Courier-imap 4.0.6 on Gentoo Linux Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 on Windows (XP Pro) I have a lot of folders and messages (I subscribe to a lot of mail lists), and was doing some cleaning up. I generally never mass delete more than a few hundred messages at a time, but... well, I thought I had selected a few thousand, but right after I hit delete, I noticed it wasn't 3,000 I had selected, it was @ 30,000. Well, I decided to let it go and see what happened, but Thunderbird kind of went into la-la land, to the point I had to kill it, and now it does this every time I click on the Trash folder. I have already deleted the local cache files from the TBird profile, so there is something wrong on the server side. I don't have much experience manually manipulating maildirs, so would appreciate comments... What I was going to do was first delete the folder: rm -rf /var/virtual/domain.com/maildir/.Trash then once it is all gone, do: maildirmake -f Trash /var/virtual/domain.com/maildir Or is there some kind of maintenance I can do on the folder to rebuild it?

Re: [Courier-imap] iPhone = Connection reset by peer errors
Forgot some specifics... Gentoo Linux 2.6.17 kernel Dual Opteron Was happening with Courier-IMAP 4.0.6, and still happening now after upgrading to 4.3...

I wasn't sure it was iPhone related, until we had someone else get one, and theirs is doing the same thing. Don't misunderstand me... it seems to work fine, both sending and accessing, but sometimes (not every time), I get the above error when they connect (the error PRECEDES the rest of the normal logged events of their session).

Re: [Courier-imap] iPhone = Connection reset by peer errors
Jay Lee, on 1/2/2008 4:27 PM, said the following: All these error logs mean is that the iPhone IMAP client is disconnecting without telling the server, leaving the server without any idea what happened. From the Courier server's perspective, this is an error (it has no idea what happened to the client) but from the iPhone's perspective, it just hung up, as you've said yourself, from the user's perspective it seems to work fine. If the errors in your logs really bug you all that much, I believe some of the more modern loggers can be configured to ignore certain messages. Nah, not a biggie - your explanation is good enough for me to not worry about it... The other option would be to contact Apple developers and see if they can fix their IMAP client to hang up the polite way by saying goodbye first. (Good luck with that one) Heh... actually, when the iPhone first came out, the employee bought one, I set it up, and it worked great - the IMAP client really is nice, if you haven't seen it. Then the boss bought one, and of *course* I ran into a problem with that one...it wouldn't send mail. I started troubleshooting with one of Apples reps, and they were surprisingly helpful, and we eventually (took about 2 hours) nailed it down to a character in his password that the iPhone didn't like... we enforce strong (assigned) passwords, and I think it was one of the squiggle bracket characters that was the problem. Anyway, changed that and it works great - IMAP over SSL, smtp using TLS, sent messages go straight to the Sent folder (no configuring necessary), all folders available without any configuring - it 'just worked' - and no, I'm not an apple fanboy... ;) Thanks for your insight... - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Simple things that work so well in other clients like dragging a file into a composition window creating a local link to a file instead of attaching it to a message. Ummm... is TBird supposed to be able to read your mind and know when you want a link and when you want to attach the file? You can do a local link, but imo, the normal user normally *wants* to attach the file... Attachments received being handled by mime handlers. Attachments received just not opening on a double click, not saving off if that is chosen, but requiring to be dragged off a message to a folder and then opened. We have had ZERO problems with attachment handling, except for the notorious winmail.dat problem, that I was finally able to solve nicely for our users (although it does require an extension and a user.prefs JS mod to allow them to open it by simply dbl-clicking the winmail.dat file) Its email address completion is a bit off the wall trying to suggest local domain finishes for everything typed in the to / cc fields. Eh? What are you talking about? TBird won't let you send a message until whatever you put in the 'To' or CC' fields is of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] what is so unusual about that? There really is a market opportunity for a good independent solid MUA. I think TBird rocks... it ain't perfect, no... my biggest gripe is the lack of a proper signature manager, and a few other minor gripes (rewrapping quotes in replies, Quote only selected text, etc), but honestly, with the right extensions and JS hacks, it is really the best MUA I've ever used. Lightning gives it a very usable Calendar, and the SyncSW extension/Service allows you to Sync Calendar and Addresses (even multiple Address Books) with as many different clients as you want (including your cell phone)...
