MDA broken pipe with fetchmail / dovecot
I have set up a home mail server with dovecot to download and archive email from multiple webmail accounts via IMAP. The goal is to do this automatically every week with a cron job.
I'm not sure if I should use dovecot sync/backup or fetchmail, but the latter being popular I tried fetchmail first. However, it doesn't seem to work, I get this:
user@mail:~$ fetchmail
38081 messages for [email protected] at imap.fastmail.com (folder Archive).
fetchmail: Error writing to MDA: Broken pipe
reading message [email protected]@imap.fastmail.com:1 of 38081 (2100 header octets) (726 body octets) not flushed
reading message [email protected]@imap.fastmail.com:2 of 38081 (4404 header octets) (6082 body octets)fetchmail: error writing message text
fetchmail: MDA error while fetching from [email protected]@imap.fastmail.com
fetchmail: Query status=6 (IOERR)
~/.fetchmailrc looks like this:
poll imap.fastmail.com protocol IMAP
user "[email protected]" is "user@localhost" here
folder Archive
ssl fetchall
mda "/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d user@localhost -m .fastmail.Archive"
The .fastmail.Archive folder is at the root of ~/Maildir. I am using Maildir in my dovecot config.
in ~/.netrc I have the following:
machine imap.fastmail.com
login [email protected]
password <secret>
I also ran deliver manually using strace as root, and I am not getting any message delivered when I check my ~/Maildir afterwards. Here is the output, not sure what to make of it.
root@mail:/home/user/fastmail# strace /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d user@localhost < 'test.eml'

Any ideas what could be wrong, and would it be better to use dovecot sync/backup for this?
Solution 1:
It turns out that the line
mda "/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d user@localhost -m .fastmail.Archive"
Doesn't work. When I removed @localhost, and fixed the folder name, it works:
mda "/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d user -m fastmail.Archive"
What I still don't understand is why I was not getting any kind of error output, the command just acts like it worked, and I can't see anything in the dovecot logs either. At least not without turning on debug logging options. The above seek error in the output of strace is confusing, I don't understand what the relationship is between that and the removal of the @localhost fixing the problem.
