Can't download emails with large file attachment Dovecot
I am using CentOS 5.9 with postfix+dovecot v1.0.7
I have problem in downloading emails with attachment of more than 3MB via my email client. (Thunderbird, Outlook, etc) I can send emails out with more than 3MB without any problem, whereas i can't download emails.
Following is the error i found on maillog
dovecot: pop3-login: SSL_write() syscall failed: Bad file descriptor
dovecot: impa-login: SSL_write() syscall failed: Bad file descriptor
After this the email client stops downloading emails.
What could be the problem ? Please help me fix this . Thank You

It could be your Postfix config. Look at the messagesizelimit info on this page:

I suspect it could be dovecot or SSL issue ? plz help me isoloate the problem. Thx
I see old (2006) errors similar to yours that are related to the dovecot loginprocesssize setting.
The errors you posted are usually generated by client connections.
Can you set up this account on another device and see if you can download the large attachments?
Have you tried testing it with the SSL requirement turned off?

I've tested on multiple computers with different email clients, problem persist. Later i changed to imaps only.
Now the problem is fixed and main problem seems to be related to only pop3 and pop3s..
