Hi,
I have running dovecot with about 28k users.
Here comes my relevant config for pop3 and imap from "doveconf -n".
No problems so far.
-- snip --
default_client_limit = 2000
...
service imap-login {
inet_listener imap {
port = 143
}
process_limit = 256
process_min_avail = 50
service_count = 1
}
service imap {
process_limit = 2048
process_min_avail = 50
service_count = 1
vsz_limit = 512 M
}
...
service pop3-login {
inet_listener pop3 {
port = 110
}
process_limit = 256
process_min_avail = 25
service_count = 1
}
service pop3 {
process_limit = 256
process_min_avail = 25
service_count = 1
}
...
protocol imap {
imap_client_workarounds = tb-extra-mailbox-sep
imap_id_log = *
imap_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o session=<%{session}>
mail_max_userip_connections = 40
mail_plugins = " quota mail_log notify zlib imap_quota imap_zlib"
}
...
protocol pop3 {
mail_plugins = " quota mail_log notify zlib"
pop3_logout_format = bytes_sent=%o top=%t/%p, retr=%r/%b, del=%d/%m,
\ size=%s uidl_hash=%u session=<%{session}>
}
-- snip --
Regards
Urban
