Hello all,
I've got the following problem that has started occuring recently.
(To the best of my knowledge, nothing major has changed). It seems to
be happing more and more frequently.
If I have a group of messages in Maildir/new (say 10 messages) and
number 8 is large ( ~4 MB or so) when retrieving mail, my client will
get past number 8 and then say "Connection reset by peer". The client
will think that it didnt get the messages and begin downloading again.
I have verified this through a telnet connection to pop3 port. The
weird thing is at the end of the large message I will see:
retr 8
asdjkfhalsdjkhflasjkhdfljkasdhfklasjhfklashdflkjasdhlkfjhasdlkjfhsdklajhf
aljkhdsfklajshf0789234092874kljahsdflkahfo3789409872308497asldfl
.
indicating that the message is done. When i try to do a retr 9, I get a
"connection lost" message. I can only assume that my mail clients are
experiencing the same thing.
The weird thing is that this appears to happen on all of our servers. I
was thinking that this was a quota issue, but some of the people that
have experienced the problem have unlimited quotas. I understand that
if I login via pop3, the process runs as me, and if it creates a temp
file for big messages, I may be over my quota. Fortunately my quota is
a few GB, disk space seems fine... so I am unsure what is the cause of
these problems.
Any help would be appreciated.
