[Dovecot] lock files on mbox using 1.0 stable

[Obantec Support]

Hi

i am using dovecot 1.0 stable no SSL on FC3 and mbox format
i have a user who seem prone to file locks.
he had a pop3 process running for 8 hours. i killed it and deleted the lock
but it returned a few hour later.
the user is using Outlook express only.

as a test i have setup a new account for him but would like to know if there
is a way to stop this happening.

i have gone thru the conf and

default_mail_env = mbox:/var/spool/mail/%u

#lock_method = fcntl

#mbox_read_locks = fcntl
#mbox_write_locks = dotlock fcntl
#mbox_read_locks = fcntl

mbox_dotlock_change_timeout = 30
