Logging to remote server
My Google searches must be off, I couldn’t see how to do this. Is there a way to log to a local file, but also send to a remote server? Eg: Log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log, @mylogserver.example.com:514 Thanks, James

Eg: Log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log, @mylogserver.example.com:514 You need to configure your local syslog server to send the logs to the remote server. Dovecot itself has no facility to do this on its own. Grüße, Sven.

I'm using the roundcube web-based mail client. The find command is showing 15823 email files and apache solr reports the same number. I'm running a dedicated mail server with a 1 GB of ram. The solr machine is running on a separate machine with 4 GB ram. THE PROBLEM: When I do a full text search through all my inbox and all subfolders on a single word, search results are returned in about 10 to 15 seconds. This is better than the 40 seconds or so I'm getting when I turn off the fts and fts_solr plugins but still a little disappointing. WHAT I'D LIKE: Now, I don't expect instant search results like gmail, but getting the search results to display in less than 5 seconds would be a lot less painful that 10 to 15 seconds. WHAT I'VE TRIED: I have reindexed the emails on solr to try to speed things upit up. ANY ADVICE? Curious to know what response times others are seeing and if there is anything else I might try to speed things up. Maybe the number of subfolders is slowing things down? OK, I figured it out. It was a bug in Debian's version of dovecot: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=970692 Upgrading to "Bulleyse" fixed things up nicely and I now have super fast search. Now I have to go tackle the plugin errors that are crashing the roundcube install. :) Look also here: https://repo.dovecot.org/
