[7.003] Prefetch is no longer working

Since upgrading to v. 7003 the prefetch mechanism is no longer working.

I can't receive any email. They stay on the server. With prefetch switched to off, i receive my mails.

To track this issue I need a more detailed pop3 log. 
Is there a way to have more debugging information? 

Is there a way to delete the prefetch database? 
Switching the prefetch to off seems not to delete the database

  • Debugging can be activated in 

    /var/mdw/scripts/pop3. Set the value of the param "--logmask=" from 15 to 31 and restart the proxy (/var/mdw/scripts/pop3 restart).

    We well see tomorrow where the problem is.

    I switched off prefetch and pop3 proxy for one day, then re-enabled it.
    As you can see, there is one error message repeating .

    Does anyone can confirm that behavior? 
    Does anyone has a clue to fix that?

  • My fix in the past, for v7.002 and earlier was
    1/. disable prefetch and pop3 proxy
    2/. open a port (packet filter)
    3/. leave it open for a couple of hours with your e-mail client active
    4/. after you are happy that you have all your e-mail disable the packet filter rule
    5/. enable pop3 proxy
    6/. enable prefetch


    Don't disable then enable prefetch, it gets totally out of wack and you get strange results. Leave it for at least 2 days before you pass any judgment. If you decide not to use prefetch after all repeat steps 1-5.

  • Hi Guys,

    the problem only occurs with a few "special" pop3 servers and Windows Outlook/ Vista Mail. 

    The same problem is described here: http://astaro.org/showthread.php?t=18415

    As workaround you can use for example Thunderbird as new mail client.

    The good news are, the isssue is already fixed and is tested from our QA at the moment.
  • Hi Koma,

    thanks for the answer. Well im using thunderbird, so in my case it`s probably the special webserver. What can be so special with a pop3 server?

    @RFCat_vk
    Thanks for the hint. I already tried this. Doesn`t help.
