This is the main problem. So indexes are also on NFS? What locking are
they using (dovecot -n output)?
Yes, the indexes are also on NFS.
The locking is fcntl() - the default.
Below is the dovecot -n output.
One of the guys that I work with appears to clear up the problem for now
- I think it was via manual deletion of the indexes and processes that
were logging errors but I won't know for sure until he gets in.
