I think it might probably be the same issue that had already been described one year ago for 2.2.0: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.mail.imap.dovecot/71636 (Although in my case, the "Cached message size smaller than expected" difference is always 1 byte.) > and I think Timo doesn't give > mbox as much attention as maildir and dbox). Too bad. Unfortunately it's not easy to switch for me. :-( Is mbox really such an uncommon scenario with dovecot? AFAIK it's the default config shipped with most linux distros.. > Also, possibly a kernel issue - you are on a very old one (I know the > argument, but I disagree with and have never 'gotten' it). 2.6.32 is 6.5 > years old. Hmm - I think that's very unlikely a kernel issue. It's a Redhat EL 6 kernel so that kernel is actively maintained and very widely used. > Also, did you change default_vsz_limit for a good reason Yes. I suppose. ;-) However, I don't remember that reason now. :-) Maybe I read some recommendation about that? Maybe about large mailboxes?
