lmtp error - read-only filesystem #1571

Open jalogisch opened 5 years ago

jalogisch commented 5 years ago

quite regular I notice the following error message in the mail.log I do not miss any message and it is stored - but I can't see a reason for this kind of message.

The references I can find in the dovecot ml are quite old (2014) and do not give a guidance to fix.

I run the following to check if permission are ok:

sievec /etc/dovecot/sieve-spam.sieve

what does not give any error messages. maybe someone else is able to guide or give some idea what might be the reason.

MIAB: Version 0.41 (latest at the time of writing this)

infidelus commented 4 years ago

Having installed Miab a couple of months ago, I've just been looking through my mail logs for a different error to report and am also seeing this lmtp error. Version 0.44.

FWIW I cannot find a single instance of this error.

infidelus commented 4 years ago

On the flip side, I see it multiple times an hour on my MIAB install, which I've only been running for about 2 months.

myfirstnameispaul commented 4 years ago

I just fixed this problem for myself with good ol' sudo mailinabox.

infidelus commented 4 years ago

Thanks, tried that yesterday but still seeing those errors in the log regularly.

[Edit to add]

I don't know if this is related at all, but if I'm writing an email and it takes a while, Thunderbird gives me an error:

Your draft message was not copied to your drafts folder (Drafts) due to network or file access errors. You can retry or save the draft locally to Local Folders/Drafts-Infi.

myfirstnameispaul commented 4 years ago

Did you check your logs? IIRC, LMTP (Dovecot) handles these. Maybe there is a debug or verbose logging mode if that doesn't reveal anything.

infidelus commented 4 years ago

Not sure what's going on now. Think it must be me going senile.

I ran sudo mailinabox yesterday morning and I could swear I still saw errors after, and I definitely had an error saving drafts today.

I updated to .45 earlier and I've just gone back into the mail.log to look again, and now I can't see any read-only errors after 10am yesterday and I successfully saved a draft.

Colour me confused ...

myfirstnameispaul commented 4 years ago

Try moving mails to different different directories. That usually brings the error.

infidelus commented 4 years ago

Thanks again. I tried moving one of my existing emails between directories but didn't get any errors. Saving as draft is inconsistent. I've saved a couple successfully but another couple error'd out with that file access error.
