You're right. The head of the file:
# This script converts all db files of a cyrus installation from their
# existing format to the format required by the current installation.
# The format of current db files is determined using the 'file' command
# with a magic file added for skiplist db, the new format is read from
# a config file usually in /usr/share/cyrus-imapd/rpm/db.cfg, which is
# created while compiling. After converting, the db.cfg file is
# copied to a cache file usually at /var/lib/imap/rpm/db.cfg.cache to
# allow bypassing this converting script if both files are identical.
# While this is a bit less secure, it may be useful on big server where
# db converting is done automatically.
#
# This script can safely be run as root, it will reexec itself as user
# cyrus if needed.

Hmm, this is english and the "check ${CONFIGDIRECTORY}/rpm/db_import.log" is
missing in the German output. I hope this is the same Version.
cvt_cyrusdb_all is not a Cyrus-Imapd Command. I would guess, this is a RH/FC
Extension. Check what it does. It seems to fail.
And of course check the Logfile ${CONFIGDIRECTORY}/rpm/db_import.log
> Please check the log files located in /var/lib/imap/rpm
Yes.

The FC Start/Stop scripts do as follow (only importent parts of the script):
Start:
$RUNUSER - cyrus -c "umask 166 ; /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cvt_cyrusdb_all >
${CONFIGDIRECTORY}/rpm/db_import.log 2>&1" < /dev/null
RETVAL=$?
if [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ]; then
success $"$BASENAME importing databases"
else
failure $"$BASENAME error importing databases, check
${CONFIGDIRECTORY}/rpm/db_import.log"
fi
Stop:
echo -n $"Exporting $BASENAME databases: "
cd $CONFIGDIRECTORY
$RUNUSER - cyrus -c "umask 166 ; /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cvt_cyrusdb_all
export > ${CONFIGDIRECTORY}/rpm/db_export.log 2>&1" < /dev/null
RETVAL2=$?
if [ $RETVAL2 -eq 0 ]; then
success $"$BASENAME exporting databases"
else
failure $"$BASENAME error exporting databases, check

Can murder be used for IMAP server migration?
My current e-mail server has both SMTP and IMAP running on the same machine. I'm building a new IMAP server on a different machine that will ultimately have ten times the capacity. I'm looking for a way to migrate mailboxes from the old server to the new one without shutting down the whole service for an extended period of time. Can I use the old server as both a front end and one of the back ends for a murder configuration, with the new server as the second back end? Will that allow me to migrate mailboxes at my convenience? How do I prevent a port conflict between the IMAP server and the proxy on the old server? Do I have to run the same Cyrus version on both machines? Currently, the old server runs cyrus-imapd-2.1.14 and the new one runs cyrus-imapd-2.3.6. Is there anything that won't work in this configuration? -- -Gary Mills--Unix Support--U of M Academic Computing and Networking- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

Postfix cannot tell whether it received a message because of earlier expansion of a list or because of a Bcc: recipient. My point was that you would not want to have a header which disclosed all recipients because that would break the Bcc: privacy. I agree that the alternative of producing seperate copies for each individual user does not seem like a desirable solution either.

The index file changes when someone receives an email... and is possibly accessed when other processes run (squatter?). It looked like FUD should do what I'm looking for, but for some reason does not (for me). I'm not sure if the functionality was meant to be there, but for some reason the internal mechanisms were never put in place... or if there's just something I'm possibly doing wrong.

I have one person requesting it, and am not finding anything particularly useful on the subject ... Mainly, what they are looking at is where UserA is aliased to UserB, but they want to know that the original was sent to UserA for 'sub-filtering' purposes ... I'm using Postfix in front of cyrus imapd .. and v2.3.x of Cyrus IMAPd ... If a message has been delivered to B because A is in the To: or Cc: then you don't need any extra header lines because you can see it in the To: and Cc:. a message is delivery solely by what is in the envelope. The headers are irrelevant to mail routing. If the message was delivered to multiple recipients because of Bcc: or because of a list (Postfix can't tell the difference) then you are snookered as far as I can see. of course postfix can tell the difference. It has the envelope information. If it did not have the envelope data it could not deliver the message anywhere. You would need to get Postfix to put a list of all the envelope recipients in the new header line and that would break the Bcc: privacy, so you should refuse to do it. the trick would be to add a different envelope recipient header for each recipient. This of course also breaks any single instance delivery scheme as the message would have to be duplicated for each recipient. The postfix local delivery agent does this in certain cases: In the case of UNIX-style mailbox delivery, the local(8) daemon prepends a "From sender time_stamp" envelope header to each message, prepends an X-Original-To: header with the recipient address as given to Postfix, prepends an optional Delivered-To: header with the final envelope recipient address, prepends a Return-Path: header with the envelope sender address, prepends a > character to lines beginning with "From ", and appends an empty line. The mailbox is locked for exclu- sive access while delivery is in progress. In case of problems, an attempt is made to truncate the mailbox to its original length. In the case of maildir delivery, the local daemon prepends an optional Delivered-To: header with the final envelope recipient address, prepends an X-Original-To: header with the recipient address as given to Postfix, and prepends a Return-Path: header with the envelope sender address. I am sure some users would like something like this for cyrus but I can also see the reluctance to implementing this because of breaking single instance delivery. This would have to be an optional feature.
