Hello,

Well, then. I'm at a loss to understand the behavior we see.

Users can't connect to their account.
Go look and see the .NEW files. Hm.
Run a reconstruct and the .NEW files go away.
User problem fixed.

Perhaps you can offer me an alternative explanation for
the behavior and we can fix what actually is broke. Thanks.

Regards,
Earl Shannon

The index files suffixed with .NEW are left behind apparently in some

to access their account.


The .NEW files should be totally ignored by any running cyrus instance
(well, except when they are overwritten).

They're just evidence of a half-completed transaction.
