Hi,

through various trial and errors i've found the solution to my problem, i disabled the mbox_min_index_size, it was set to 200 ( i think i read in some tutorial that this will increase performance)

#mbox_min_index_size = 200

After disabling it the errors stopped though i still have a niggling issue still unresolved

Where do the error messages go ??? i read through the debuging tutorial,, the dovecot --log-error command doesn't work,,, or maybe i am not executing it properly

dovecot --log-error

Usage: dovecot [-F] [-c <config file>] [-p] [-n] [-a] [--exec-mail <protocol>] [--version] [--build-options] Fatal: Unknown argument: --log-error

That is what i get after command execution, how do i find out where the error messages are logged ???

Looks like 1.0.rc15 doesn't yet have --log-error, so you'd have to fallback to using grep. Maybe grepping "imap" would show show something..

mbox_min_index_size anyway was problematic until very latest 1.0 RCs where I did a lot of fixes to handling switching between on-disk indexes and in-memory indexes.
