We recently upgraded to Cyrus IMAP v2.5.7 (compiled from 0ca3a92) from
2.4.17, and are seeing some strange issues with Thunderbird.

The theory from the person who is working on this is that 2.5.7 introduced 
LIST-EXTENDED, and instead of using the old LSUB to get the folder subscription 
list, it seems TB is depending on the \Subscribed flag on listing folders ... 
but it's not there; so suddenly one appears not to be subscribed to any 
folders. Trying to change subscriptions from TB is essentially a no-op (maybe 
it's trying and unable to set \Subscribed on a folder?). By telling TB to 
ignore subscriptions completely, everything works. We've not had complaints 
about other clients.

Does this make sense to anyone? Is it possibly a bug? I can get more 
information if needed.

BTW, it seems moving mailboxes (in a murder) with cyradm is causing index 
corruption, and reconstruct often crashes when trying to fix that. I'll get 
onto that later. Our search indices were also knackered after the upgrade, and 
required a run of squatter to fix. On 10TB of data that took a few days....

Otherwise, we seem to be up and working.

Thanks,
g
