Sieve and encoded Headers
Hi, after wondering for a while why occasionally my sieve script rules wouldn't work, I just found the reason (I guess) - Sieve doesn't (correctly?) decode utf encoded header lines which e.g. are in a format like this: Subject: =?utf-8?B?W0xPR10gV2F0Y2hsaXN0OiBzbWVhZ29sIGZvdW5kIEdydcOfIGF1cyBkZXIgVW50ZXJ3ZWx0IChVbmtub3duIENhY2hlKQ==?= I'm using version: Cyrus timsieved v2.2.13-Debian-2.2.13-19 ... is it something that is fixed in a newer version? I tried finding something on the net, but at least the first couple of results pages didn't yield any insight ...

Authenticating with LDAP tree ...
Hi, I'm trying to authenticate users against an LDAP database ... now, I already have that running on several servers that use the normal tree setup, something like cn=username,ou=somebranch,ou=domain,ou=tld, with a search_base of ou=domain,ou=tld. The place I'm trying to configure it for now is using a - AFAICT - rather unusal schema, as they have a tree that uses multiple top level o=, and start underneath there, so there may by user entries like cn=user1,ou=USERS,o=branch1 and cn=user2,ou=USERS,o=branch2 (historically, ldap trees from several locations were just merged together, which led to this) How can I get SASL to search in such a configuration? I already tried a ou=USERS,o=* syntax, which I didn't expect to work (and it didn't) Also, I know that saslauthd or other apps will need to check the resulting username/pw, so I tried binding with the DN and PW of an account, resulting in a Confidentiality required ... using ldaps:// notation didn't work, as the remote server (Novell eDirectory) probably isn't configured for that, and -Z for TLS also fails with ldap_start_tls: Server is unavailable (52) additional info: TLS services are not available From what I can find, the message should come up if the server is configured for requiring secure queries, but then I would expect it to also be configured to SUPPORT either one of the methods ...

Re: Upgrade and Migration
I've been following this thread, I will be doing an IMAP migration from an older to a more current version (albeit, not the newest). I was wondering - is imapsync (or IMAP for that matter) able to copy all the folders, permissions etc. by using the cyrus admin user instead of all the separate users? That would save a lot of work ...

I'm quite sure the archives hold detailed information on this as I don't remember all the details. Cool! Works, at least accessing the user mail directories ... guess I will still have to figure out the best way of transferring all the access rights to the new server, but this should at least get the mails copied more easily ... -garry 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
Automatically moving marked mails?
Hi, in order to fix a customer's wrong perception of how a mail server should work, I was wondering: Is there a way to make Cyrus IMAP move marked-for-deletion mails to a trash folder, effectively purging it from the original folder?

Auto-creating accounts?
Hi, I have a cyrus setup that is working fine, with LDAP auth and the other 9 yards ... I will start a 600+ user migration pretty soon ... for now, I plan on setting up a mirror setup on a VM to let the users get used to the new system ... I was planning on forwarding all live mail from the old system to the test system ... problem is, all the cyrus accounts aren't there yet, and won't be until I do the live migration ... which means I can't receive mails on the system until the user loggs in once ... is there a way to get Deliver to create the accounts, in contrast to IMAP which already does it?

AFAIR the Mail headers must contain the addresses you specified in the vacation rules. Did you check that? Yes ... Also keep in mind, that vacation mail is not sent, when sender and recipient are the same. No, tried sending from a multitude of different places, like GMX and GMail, my own servers, etc ... Can someone please clarify what process' job it is to generate the mail by calling sendmail? Is it lmtpd which I assumed?

Sieve: Vacation not working
I have a SuSE Enterprise 10 system set up, which is running smoothly ...
I have Cyrus 2.2.12 on it, which too is working fine - IMAP, SASL-Auth,
the whole 9 yards ... even Sieve itself is fine, messages are moved to
the appropriate folders as directed in the Sieve config ...
Here's an excerpt from the Sieve script:
require [ vacation , fileinto ] ;
## Flag: |UniqueId:1|Rulename: SpamMsg
if header :contains From gkg
{
fileinto INBOX.Spam ;
}
## Flag: vacation|UniqueId:0|Rulename: Abwesenheitsbenachrichtigung
if true
{
vacation :days 7 :addresses [ ad...@ox6.mydomain.de ,
ad...@mydomain.de ] :subject Ich bin nicht da ... blah ;
}
The message is received, but according to /var/log/messages, nothing
happens apart from it being stored locally ...
I'm somewhat at a loss as to where else I can check for the reason of it
not working ... couldn't find anything on Google that would have been
helpful, either ... maybe somebody could point me in the right direction
... ?!
