I have dovecot 1.1.16 running on Solaris 10. We are seeing problem with
lock files taking forever to be removed after opening a email folder
like Trash with several thousand messages in them. We use mbox format.
All users inbox's are local to the mail server, and all other users mail
folders are stored on a separate file server mounted via NFS. I see no
problems with the NFS mounts. cd'ing into the mount points, listing
files and viewing files a perform with now visible delays.
Is there something I can do in the config file to speed things up?
Here is the config file:
# 1.1.16: /userM/mail-services/dovecot/etc/dovecot.conf
Warning: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load
(more than 3072). Either grow the limit or change
login_max_processes_count and max_mail_processes settings
