The prot routines should be recording the interactions before passing the data up to the imap layer where the parsing error occurs. Are there any long lines in your telemetry? The bad line should directly proceed "* BYE Fatal error: word too long" in the telemetry (if I'm reading imapd's fatal() routine correctly). AFAIK, there's nothing to be done other than adjusting the MAXWORD and/or MAXQUOTED limits. That means upgrading or recompiling the old version that you're on. :wes > Denis BUCHER a écrit : >> David Carter a écrit : >>> On Fri, 22 Aug 2008, Denis BUCHER wrote: >>>> As far as I understand, the cause of the problem is : * "Outlook is >>>> sending either a token or quoted string that is longer than 8K >>>> bytes." >>> Your problem is a mailbox which contains several thousand messages. >>> Possibly several thousand messages which Outlook hasn't seen >>> previously. >>> >>> Outlook tries to construct a single IMAP command of the form: >>> >>> UID FETCH uid,uid,uid,... <some set of fields> >>> >>> where the list of UIDs is larger than 8 KBytes in size. >> >> Ok that's what I have : >> >> a) Logs are present >> # ls -l /var/lib/imap/log/dbucher >> total 2508 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355147 Aug 22 14:43 20235 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 14:43 25058 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 10654 Aug 22 14:54 25415 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355241 Aug 22 15:24 25416 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355537 Aug 22 15:03 25417 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355147 Aug 22 14:48 25576 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 14:59 26381 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 15:04 26763 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355443 Aug 22 15:15 26765 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 15:09 27095 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 15:14 27752 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 360146 Aug 22 15:19 28135 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 15:24 28463 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 5327 Aug 22 15:29 29125 >> -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 355147 Aug 22 15:29 29127 >> >> b) That's the UID FETCH : >> # grep "UID FETCH" * >> 20235:<1219408982<jbf7 UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 20235:<1219408982<eke2 UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 25416:<1219411440<kb1u UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 25416:<1219411440<qv47 UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 25417:<1219409521<1ozq UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 25417:<1219409521<h7ki UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 25576:<1219409287<ukf6 UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 25576:<1219409287<9vks UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 26765:<1219410214<y8b2 UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 26765:<1219410214<b685 UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 28135:<1219411131<7bfi UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 28135:<1219411131<dkkx UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> 29127:<1219411745<4g4y UID FETCH 7136:* (UID FLAGS RFC822.SIZE >> BODY.PEEK[HEADER] INTERNALDATE) >> 29127:<1219411745<cos6 UID FETCH 1:7135 (UID FLAGS) >> >> c) Most sessions in the logs seem to finish correctly : >> ... >> <1219411787<DONE >> ZZZZ LOGOUT >>> 1219411787>5mk6 OK Completed >> * BYE LOGOUT received >> ZZZZ OK Completed >> >> d) But not all : >> ==> 30887 <== >>> 1219413279>91rc OK Completed >> <1219413279<6leo IDLE >>> 1219413279>+ idling >> <1219413343<DONE >>> 1219413343>6leo OK Completed >> <1219413343<351h UID STORE 7136 +FLAGS (\Deleted \Seen) >>> 1219413343>* 7136 FETCH (FLAGS (\Deleted \Seen) UID 7136) >> 351h OK Completed >> <1219413343<dpau IDLE >>> 1219413343>+ idling >> [end of file] >> >> e) And there are many "Fatal error: word too long" but not with same >> number... >> Aug 22 14:43:03 atlantic imaps[25050]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 14:48:08 atlantic imaps[25063]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 14:53:24 atlantic imaps[17518]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 14:58:28 atlantic imaps[26379]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:03:34 atlantic imaps[26776]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:08:40 atlantic imaps[27118]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:13:45 atlantic imaps[27749]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:18:51 atlantic imaps[27174]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:24:01 atlantic imaps[28464]: Fatal error: word too long >> Aug 22 15:29:06 atlantic imaps[29123]: Fatal error: word too long >> >> Normally the watched account having had "Fatal error", I should >> find a >> fatal error in the transactions logs ?
