We have a redhat linux el4 and used as a mail server.We configured postfix.all r working fine.we got a problem for a particular user when he tries to open his mailbox and the error is mentioned below:

ERROR: Could not complete request.
Query: SELECT "INBOX"
Reason Given: Internal error occured. Error report written to server log. [2008-07-25 11:59:14]

postfix-nochroot(8)					      System Manager's Manual					       postfix-nochroot(8)

NAME
postfix-nochroot - change /etc/postfix/master.cf to not use chroot SYNOPSIS
postfix-nochroot DESCRIPTION
Renames /etc/postfix/master.cf to /etc/postfix/master.cf.bak and creates a new /etc/postfix/master.cf file with every service configured to not use chroot. Every modified line is commented. It also restarts Postfix (to apply the change) and rmoves the unused chroot directories /var/spool/postfix/{etc,lib,usr} . Using a chroot environment makes upgrades more difficult and gets in the way when running SE Linux (without actually providing any security benefit in a SE Linux system). SEE ALSO
