Great! A very useful feature in a real multidomain environment I think! I am currently busy working on logging some IMAP events patching imapd.c. I'll enforce your patch immediately after that and let you know my results. Thank you a lot. P -Messaggio originale- Da: Alain Spineux

Re: Cyrus IMAPd 2.3.10 Released

2007-11-09 Thread Ian G Batten
For confirmation, the problem I had a couple of weeks ago with Cyrus 2.3.10 on a Redhat 8 derived system is fixed by forcing HAVE_GETGROUPLIST to be undefined (I did it by deleting getgrouplist from the list of functions checked for in configure --- there's presumably a cleaner way).

It seems silly to spend all the money for a T2000 with redundancies and SAN and etc. And then have it choke up when it hits (for us) about 10K users. It seems everyone we talk to scratches their head why this system with all it's cores would choke. We have found even older Sun V210 are

How many and what sort of people does it take to maintain a system such as this? I need a good argument for hiring a replacement for me. At a minimum you want 1 qualified person and someone cross-trained as a backup, so that person can reasonably enough have vacations. Any decent
