Hi. My experience was only when I deleted files. I think dovecot does not complain if there are new files in the folder, but if there are files missing, it complains. I think it's normel that programs deliver mail into the folder, but normaly, whitout dovecot no file is deleted. So dovecot

Interesting, I have a script that does just that (move files about in the maildir) and it has not lead to problems yet. Though, I can definitely understand how it might be problematic. I gotta watch out for that. If you want to be on the safe side, I guess Eric's suggestion of using dovecot's

Yes, it can be problematic. At the same time though, dovecot is very robust, and is capable of recovering from inconsistencies such as this automatically (all by itself). I would expect performance hits when dovecot needs to rebuild indexes and such, but I would not expect a failure of any

I never have such problems with e.g. horde or Mail on Mac OS X. Could that be IMAP client-related as well? But then I am investigating how to replace my manual operations with dovecot's deliver. I don't want to end up having such problems as well. Martin Am 08.07.2010 um 18:58 schrieb Andreas

From what I read in the deliver documentation, it cannot (unlike maildrop) take an email from standard input or a file? At least that is how I read the documentation. If that's true I do not see how it could be used for this type of scripting. Anyone can confirm / correct my observation? Martin

I haven't looked at the deliver documentation much, let alone recently. I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but would you like to ask on the dovecot list? (dove...@dovecot.org) That list has been pretty active lately, and the people there are very helpful. -- -Eric 'shubes' Martin
