[courier-users] imap not finding new mail
i just set up a new mailserver. delivery seems to be working just fine. i can see that there are new messages waiting to be read (by doing an `ls` in a user maildir: /opt/usermail/domains/web.com/burnout/new shows me about 20 messages, so i know they're there. my IMAP server isn't seeing these new messages. i can access it from 2 clients, a 'normal' mailread (Moz mail, in this case) or via the web (i have squirrelmail installed). neither of these methods shows the new messages. i did copy old messages over to the new machine, so i'm starting to think that something is missing/ didn't get copied over correctly. any suggestions? = i'm trying to get away from this mail account as much as possible. it's become a spamtrap. please reply to , or update your address books to, [EMAIL PROTECTED] __ Do you Yahoo!?

A default installation of courier will look for messages in /path/to/user/homedir/Maildir. So, if you have a user called burnout, as I can see above, then you would create a Maildir in /opt/usermail/domains/web.com/burnout. At the moment, it seems as if you have defined /opt/usermail/domains/web.com/burnout itself as the Maildir. There is nothing wrong with that in theory. However, you must then ensure that you set the maildir parameter in your authentication database to let the system know that the home directory and the maildir are the same. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.

Check the ownership and permissions on the files you copied over. it's even stupider than that. IMAP was looking in a folder one dir above where postfix was delivering mail. i copied over the old stuff to: /opt/usermail/xxx.com and postfix is delivering to: /opt/usermail/domains/xxx.com __ Do you Yahoo!?
