The configuration files are significantly different, but the mail repository
will be the same (the database schema hasn't changed).

The log file you show about the alarm is just so aggressive logging, and the
"alarm" is actually a good thing... it indicates that we are starting and
stopping a timer to remove stale connections.  I haven't looked at that
logging in a while, so I'm not sure why it's immediately removing it after
adding it, but my logs are filled with the alarm messages and James is
working fine for me.  The problem with your users being unable to connect
are probably more indicative of extra threads not being spawn, or something
hung in retrieving messages (just guesses).

I'm not sure about migrating the user repositories (are you using a database
as well?).  Maybe someone more familiar with how the user repository has
changed can speak to that.

Hi,

I'm considering upgrading to the latest james dist.
I'm not sure of my version (1.2.1 ?). I installed it 4-5 months ago...
I have regularly problems with lots (I mean LOTS) of threads being
spawned by the James process, and then there's this strange message in
info.log:

2001.09.05 03:18:16 848 (DEBUG) from SocketManager: ServerSocketAcceptor
on port 25: request arrived

Regularly thus, my users cannot connect to the server, I have to
re-launch it and all my users receive their last week's messages.

....a pain

:-(

Have these problems already been reported ?

BTW, I use MySQL as a spool/mailbox back-end.

I have one further worry: how do I keep my users/passwords when/if
upgrading ???

Regards,

Aur�lien
