I am getting non-spam emails that fail delivery over LMTP to Cyrus IMAP. Most likely the cause is lines that are too long (though it could also be embedded NULLs).
I would appreciate suggestions about how to handle this, assuming I'm stuck with Cyrus's behavior.* Ideally some kind of filter could clean up the message; I haven't turned up one on the net and am a little concerned about trashing attachments if I just do something naive. A cruder approach would be to reset the the enveloper sender to a special address on my system, and have mail to that address delivered to a regular mailbox in my home directory. It would also be good to have a notification sent to me so I know this is going on; I guess I could do that with a second router for the special bounce address that used a pipe to send the alert. Any thoughts? Thanks. Ross Boylan (*) Some discussion on the net suggests that a change existed or was forthcoming, but I don't see it in the cyrus changelogs, even for 2.4. -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
