Hi,

OS: Debian GNU/Linux 7

df -hT
Filesystem     Type      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vzfs      reiserfs   30G   12G   19G  38% /

/etc/fstab
proc  /proc       proc    defaults    0    0
none  /dev/pts    devpts  rw,gid=5,mode=620    0    0
none  /run/shm    tmpfs   defaults    0    0


If someone knows an option to change the tmp directory in dovecot.conf, it would be very helpful. I can't find it. I can't increase the size of tmp, its not an partition and even my provider don't knows how it can be possible that the tmp directory is limited to 1 MB.

Hi,

according to dovecot.conf lmtp stores all mails temporarily in "/tmp/" that are bigger than 256KB. You can change the directory in dovecot.conf or you should increase the /tmp/ size. It could be that /tmp/ is a ramdisk. Check /etc/fstab.

Which os you are using?
What does "df -hT" say?
What does /etc/fstab say?

Hi

i can send mails without problems in any direction, except when the
attachments are bigger than 1 MB. I alway get this message

postconf message_size_limit
message_size_limit = 0
postconf mail_size_limit
mailbox_size_limit = 0

i can send big attachments to an extern address but not from intern to
intern. Someone said that maybe the tmp directory is the problem so i
checked the size.

ls -ald /tmp/; df -h /tmp/
drwxrwxrwt 4 root root 80 Aug  3 19:44 /tmp/
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
-               1,0M  4,0K 1020K   1% /tmp
root@example:/tmp#

is there a connection between lmtp and the size of the tmp directory?
And why is the size 1,0M, tmp is not an own partion. Should i increase
the size? And if yes, how?

df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/vzfs        80G   12G   69G  15% /
