[BlueOnyx:20665] Re: Strange fcoemon error

[Lewis Gardner]

Thanks, I certainly have no idea about fcoemon. I guess I'll have to do 
some research and if that bears no fruit export, rebuild the machine and 
import. dang... unless there is a better idea...


The only thing that looks strange (to me) in maillog is:

> Feb 16 17:47:24 bq180 sendmail[18544]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 11: missing ":" separator

There is a entry in that file made via the GUI of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/32. In 
   hosts.allow it appears on line 11 as xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Right now mail is flowing but I see the two problems. Somethimes when 
using Thunderbird as an IMAP client it will send mail then error on 
copying to the sent folder. If I keep trying it will eventually work. 
When receiving a connection denied error.

Others have reported a "Connection to storage server failed" message 
when using Roundcube. I am now getting that message but if I keep trying 
I get through.

Yikes! Over 200 Cron <root at xxxx> /usr/local/sbin/dfix.sh messges today!

Many are blocking and unblocking of IP addresses. Some look like this:
> Warning: Dovecot process count = 51 processes
> Stopping Dovecot Imap: [  OK  ]
> dovecot: no process killed
> dovecot-auth: no process killed
or:
> Normal: Dovecot process count = 1 processes
> Starting Dovecot Imap: [  OK  ]

So I guess that may have some bearing. What do you think? Is Dovecot 
running out of processes?
