Works very well with Cyrus; which is its intended IMAP server. Speaking of calendars,... What about Mozilla Sunbird/Lightning? They can speak to WebDAV enabled ICS calendar format. With a special extension, Google Calendar Provider (freely available from addons.mozilla.org), they can talk to Google Calendar. Has anyone seen a calendar server that will work with Cyrus and Sunbird? We are using www.egroupware.org as Mail/Calendar/Contact-Frontend and it has rudimentary ICS over HTTP support. I spoke to the main developer and he says that ICS over HTTP is basically a very stupid idea (which I concur). Other than the occasional glitch, it's working fine with Sunbird/Lightning. Anyway, progress is made on getting GroupDAV (or was it CalDAV?) working with eGroupware, but it is still not there, though. Sunbird is really great and Lightning makes me NOT want to ever touch Outlook. I prefer the KDE PIM suite Kontact over Mozilla's products any day. It has tons of bugs, but also some very cool features which I would never want to miss again.

Re: Cyrus/Sieve- Global Filter?

We have users that can hardly create their own mail filters, let alone
sieve filters. We therefore upload an initial sieve script into each
mailbox just after creation. It consists of only one rule: moving spam
into the Spam subfolder.
With the help of an expect(1) script this filter was initially uploaded
to all 150 accounts, or so.
It is so trivial, I'll attach it right here. You call it like this:
./sieve.expect cyrus cyrPASS uid host put foo.script foo activate
foo
#!/usr/local/bin/expect
# $Id: sieve.expect,v 1.1 2007/04/19 09:35:36 uspoerlein Exp $
set timeout 5
if {$argc5} {
send_user usage: $argv0 auth pass user host cmd1 cmd2 ...\n
exit
}
set auth [lindex $argv 0]
set pass [lindex $argv 1]
set user [lindex $argv 2]
set host [lindex $argv 3]
spawn sieveshell -u $user -a $auth $host
expect password:
send $pass\n
for {set i 4} {$i$argc} {incr i} {
set cmd [lindex $argv $i]
expect
send $cmd\n
}
expect
send quit\n
expect eof
Don't run this on a shell-server though, as your cyrus admin password
will be visible from ps(1) output.
Cheers,

It could only take a few hours. You can copy a sample from the live system to get an idea of the timing. You could rsync the mail spool while it is live, take it down and then rsync again. That should save considerable time as I would imagine the vast majority of email would be unchanged between the first second copy. But unfortunately rsync will still have to scan each file to determine what has changed, and that can chew up a lot of time. Better than to speculate is to measure. Time the rsync of the mailboxes to your new server. *Don't* shutdown cyrus, but rsync right again. Measure the second run, too. This will roughly be your expected downtime. I would be surprised if it is more than 5-10 minutes. You could also do: rsync (long time), rsync (short time), shutdown cyrus, rsync (even shorter time). hth Ulrich Spoerlein -- The trouble with the dictionary is you have to know how the word is spelled before you can look it up to see how it is spelled. -- Will Cuppy Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

How to include global sieve script for each user
Hi all,
I know this is a recurring topic here, but after hours of searching I
still can't get this to work.
I'm running Cyrus 2.3.7 on FreeBSD 6.2, I have added a global script like this:
sieveshell -u cyrus -a cyrus -e p spam.script spam localhost
Which results in the script showing up in sieve/global/spam.{bc,script}
Now I want to upload a user script, consisting of the following lines
(as per RFC)
require [include];
include :global spam;
Which results in an 'unsupported feature at line 1' error. I found
posts claiming that Cyrus does not advertise the include extension,
but works anyhow.
I also tried only the line include :global spam;, but then I get
line 1: include not required.
So what is the darn syntax, and why is cyrus documented so sparsely?
Thanks in advance!
Uli
