[Dovecot] Handling of file "maildirsize"

[Frank Elsner]

Hello,

My "exim" is doing the deliveries, "dovecot" handles POP/IMAP.

Exim Log shows:

2009-07-24 14:03:40 1MUJUy-0001Jr-B0 == user at domain.tu-berlin.de R=maildir_user T=maildir_delivery defer (2): No such file or directory: while opening or reading /var/Mail/Boxes/u/user/maildirsize

2009-07-24 14:20:32 1MUJUy-0001Jr-B0 => user <user at domain.tu-berlin.de> F=<user at domain.tu-berlin.de> R=maildir_user T=maildir_delivery S=2061 QT=16m52s DT=0s


The user was active using IMAP at 14:03:4*. 

Therefor there must be a short period of time where no maildirsize exists.

Can this really happen? If yes, could this behaviour be changed?


Kind regards,
Frank Elsner
