I changed the max message size limit, the max imap connections , etc , ulimit, but nothing of theese forums helped. I still have the error :

"error: lost connection (to) host2 [93.114.80.10](len=155) Error sending '30 APPEND "Avizari Ghighiu" (\Seen) "26-Sep-2011 ... BYE mbox.grampet.com Zimbra IMAP4rev1 server closing connection"

Please anyone can help ? It's a bit urgent.

The obvious bit of information you've missed out is what's the exact size you've set for the max message size and what's the size of the attachment that's being rejected?

[zeppyk]

I have set 0 to all values. ( unlimited i suppose ) My attachments are no longer than 20 Mb. Is not that error i am talking about. The error is

"error: lost connection (to) host2 [93.114.80.10](len=155) Error sending '30 APPEND "Avizari Ghighiu" (\Seen) "26-Sep-2011 ... BYE mbox.grampet.com Zimbra IMAP4rev1 server closing connection"

About attachments, is not a problem, i can live without them. But i can't sync anymore messages, any messages.

[zeppyk]

I solved out somehow, it seems that one of :

zimbraMailContentMaxSize
zimbraFileUploadMaxSize
zimbraMtaMaxMessageSize

Should NOT be 0. 0 means literaly 0 not unlimited, so any message would not be copied. So, it seems that one generated the error for closing the connection, because any message sent to mta > 0 will get the server close the connection after a few retries.

Thank you very much for the help it's now solved.

That's correct, the setting is for defining the maximum size of an upload to the server (for each of those variables) and in this case the size you're defining is a maximum of "zero bytes" and therefore everything will fail.

Which is the correct value to be used to set *unlimited*? -1 instead of 0 ?
