Hi,

OS: Debian GNU/Linux 7

df -hT Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/vzfs reiserfs 30G 12G 19G 38% /

/etc/fstab proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /run/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

If someone knows an option to change the tmp directory in dovecot.conf, it would be very helpful. I can't find it. I can't increase the size of tmp, its not an partition and even my provider don't knows how it can be possible that the tmp directory is limited to 1 MB.

Regards Noctua

Hi,

according to dovecot.conf lmtp stores all mails temporarily in "/tmp/" that are bigger than 256KB. You can change the directory in dovecot.conf or you should increase the /tmp/ size. It could be that /tmp/ is a ramdisk. Check /etc/fstab.

Which os you are using? What does "df -hT" say? What does /etc/fstab say?

Hi

i can send mails without problems in any direction, except when the attachments are bigger than 1 MB. I alway get this message

relay=mail.example.net[private/dovecot-lmtp], delay=35155, delays=35155/0.03/0.02/0.09, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (host mail.example.net[private/dovecot-lmtp] said: 451 4.3.0 Temporary internal failure (in reply to end of DATA command)) Aug 3 19:34:34 46185 dovecot: lmtp(6477): Disconnect from local: Temporary internal failure (in DATA)

postconf message_size_limit message_size_limit = 0 postconf mail_size_limit mailbox_size_limit = 0

i can send big attachments to an extern address but not from intern to intern. Someone said that maybe the tmp directory is the problem so i checked the size.

ls -ald /tmp/; df -h /tmp/ drwxrwxrwt 4 root root 80 Aug 3 19:44 /tmp/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

•           1,0M  4,0K 1020K   1% /tmp

  root@example:/tmp#

is there a connection between lmtp and the size of the tmp directory? And why is the size 1,0M, tmp is not an own partion. Should i increase the size? And if yes, how?

df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/vzfs 80G 12G 69G 15% /

???

Hi,

that should be:

Directory in which LDA/LMTP temporarily stores incoming mails >128 kB.

#mail_temp_dir = /tmp
