Yes, I read it. We had both unixhierarchysep and altnamespace explicitly turned 
_on_ in 2.5.x. So,
there should be no implications during upgrade to 3.0 for us.

Hi,

Hi Ellie,

Dne 19.7.2018 v 4:57 ellie timoney napsal(a):

Hi,

This was an lmtpd bug in earlier versions of 3.0.  It was fixed in  
3.0.6, and this was noted in the release notes:


https://www.cyrusimap.org/imap/download/release-notes/3.0/x/3.0.6.html:
Fixed Issue #2303: lmtpd(8) now looks for sieve scripts in the  
same directories as the rest of cyrus (including timsieved(8)).
Please note that if you had manually installed sieve scripts to  
the directories lmtpd used to look in, these will need to be moved.
It sounds like your setup was taking the bug into account (using  
the '^' paths that lmtpd expected), and since lmtpd has been fixed  
to use dots, you're now seeing the reverse of the problem.


I don't think #2303 is related to our problem. Issue #2303 was a  
sieve path inconsistency between
LMTP and the rest of Cyrus between 3.0.0-beta2 and 3.0.6. We've  
upgraded directly from 2.5.7 to

3.0.6. Also, in our case subscription file names are affected too.



You should be able to rename the name^with^dots paths to  
name.with.dots and things will work normally for you.


Of course, we already renamed them using a simple script. However,  
I'm curious if this breakage
between 2.5 and 3.0 series is well known and documented. Let me  
repeat again: all subscription and
sieve paths in previous Cyrus versions had dots translated to "^"  
for years. Since 3.0 Cyrus uses
"." instead of "^" and so the upgrade leads to missing subscriptions  
and sieve scripts. This is a
significant incompatible change that should be documented in 3.0  
Upgrade Guide. I'm also afraid if

there're no more similar "silent" changes that we didn't find yet.



Just to make sure, you have seen


Important config options: unixhierarchysep: and altnamespace:  
defaults have changed in imapd.conf(5). Implications are outlined in  
the Note in User Namespace Mode and Switching the Alternative  
Namespace. Please also see “Sieve Scripts,” below.

I don't think #2303 is related to our problem. Issue #2303 was a sieve path 
inconsistency between
LMTP and the rest of Cyrus between 3.0.0-beta2 and 3.0.6. We've upgraded 
directly from 2.5.7 to
3.0.6. Also, in our case subscription file names are affected too.

Of course, we already renamed them using a simple script. However, I'm curious 
if this breakage
between 2.5 and 3.0 series is well known and documented. Let me repeat again: 
all subscription and
sieve paths in previous Cyrus versions had dots translated to "^" for years. 
Since 3.0 Cyrus uses
"." instead of "^" and so the upgrade leads to missing subscriptions and sieve 
scripts. This is a
significant incompatible change that should be documented in 3.0 Upgrade Guide. 
I'm also afraid if
there're no more similar "silent" changes that we didn't find yet.

If "^" notation should be the right one, why 3.0 series changed "^" notation to 
"." notation in
subscription and sieve paths (and only in these ones)? Shouldn't it be consider 
a bug in 3.0 series
and fixed it back to old "^" notation everywhere?

Thank you
