Hi,
I have recently installed qmail-1.03 using ./Maildir/ and pop. I
am using qmail-pop3d and checkpasswords. The problem I am
having is that when a user gets large amounts of mail ie. 2000+ it
will not scan their maildir. This is the message I am getting:
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
user excesstest
+OK
pass xxxxxx
-ERR unable to scan $HOME/Maildir
Connection closed by foreign host.
It works fine for all other aspects just when a user gets excessive
amounts of mail it stops scanning their maildir. Everyone elses still
works though.
I found a post on the mailing list that made me think I had worked it
out but the amount of memory was not the case.
I am using a Pentium Celeron 400mhz with 384MB of RAM running
FreeBSD 4.1.
Another post told me I might need to change the limits could the
number of openfiles have anything to do with it.
Here are my resource limits:
Resource limits (current):
cputime infinity secs
filesize infinity kb
datasize 524288 kb
stacksize 65536 kb
coredumpsize infinity kb
memoryuse infinity kb
memorylocked infinity kb
maxprocesses 531
openfiles 1064
sbsize infinity bytes
If anyone has any insights could they please help me it would be
much appreciated.
