I am using Thunderbird to move messages from my Cyrus system on
192.168.1.109 to my dbmail system on 192.168.1.78. I have set up an
account in Thunderbird for both the Cyrus user and corresponding dbmail
user. I then used Thunderbird to create new folders in dbmail that
match the folders I had under Cyrus for a particular user. Then I used
Thunderbird to copy the emails from the Cyrus folders to the new
corresponding dbmail folder by doing a [select all] menu option to
select all emails in the cyrus folder, then right clicking on all the
emails highlighted, and then clicking on the [copy to] menu option that
appears, and finally navigating the Thunderbird tree menu that appears
to click on the new corresponding folder in dbmail. Then thunderbird
copies all emails from the Cyrus folder to the corresponding new dbmail
folder.
I have also downloaded and installed the DBMA administration tool. I
then twice ran a [database cleanup] from the DBMA tool, which seems to
have set the status on all emails in all folders in the dbmail system to
status 3. I looked at the DBMA admin doc and it indicates a database
cleanup would mark all orphaned records with a status 3, (eg marked for
deletion status). All the emails copied from the Cyrus system to the
corresponding folder in dbmail no longer appear in Thunderbird, but all
emails in the dbmail system does appear in the DBMA tool, but with a 3
status. Does this mean that all the emails copied from Cyrus to dbmail
are orphaned?
Does anyone have any idea about what happened, and where I should go
from here?
Regards,
LelandJ
