Dear Deb's - I have been running mail services for a small community for a few years now on my Debian box. It came from 2.0 and has moved quite a few times both hardware and Debian revision. Currently on Woody.
One problem has moved along for such a long time that I hardly notice it any more. It is this: If an Outlook Express client connects to my imap daemon, it gives error messages of this type: Header download for the 'Inbox' folder did not complete. Your IMAP server has closed the connection. This may occur if you have left the connection idle for too long. Account: 'Dices', Server: '192.168.1.2', Protocol: IMAP, Server Response: 'Lost mailbox lock', Port: 143, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCCDD It does not seem to matter if the connection is via the local LAN or across the Internet. At first I assumed it had to do with my old and slow hardware, but I am currently running on a nice PPro with enough resources. Than I looked at the imap server, but that is current (Woody 4.7c-1). Non of the other clients that connect exhibit these errors (Netscape, Mozilla, Squirrelmail, Evolution). I was thinking that it might have to doe with Exchange specific imap functions that OE is expecting... Can anyone shed some light into this? I would be very pleased! -- Erik van der Meulen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
