Hi Timo,
That got better results.... I did as requested, tried the problem user and:
* 3 log files were created
mail:/tmp # ls -l /tmp/dove*
-rw------- 1 root root 8601 Aug 5 11:06 /tmp/dovecot.log.24160.1217898384
-rw------- 1 root root 68107 Aug 5 11:06 /tmp/dovecot.log.24166.1217898385
-rw------- 1 root root 10067 Aug 5 11:06 /tmp/dovecot.log.24170.1217898386
mail:/tmp # grep ENOSPC dovecot*
dovecot.log.24166.1217898385:open("/data/mail/rebecca/temp.mail.24168.891513683e680a10",
O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device)
dovecot.log.24170.1217898386:open("/data/mail/rebecca/temp.mail.24172.9054608ba8d51503",
O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_LARGEFILE, 0666) = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device)
Does that help you in any way?

The file is now being recreated for each user that logs in. Ideally > you
