Re: limit connections

Well... you really should take this to the Ubuntu iptables; Start there and they may be able to give you a better mail list that deals specifically with iptables: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users Having said that you don't necessarily need to use the iptables-extensions

Re: mailboxes.db locking problem after updating from 2.4 to 2.5.9

Did you run reconstruct like the upgrade documentation recommends? When I did my upgrade, from 2.4.x to 2.5 that's about all I had to do. I don't recall having to run ctl_mboxlist -du https://www.cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-imapd/2.5.0/install-upgrade.php

Upgrade from 2.4 to 2.5

Today I moved our mail accounts from a Cyrus 2.4 running on some older hardware with dwindling space to a new server with much more space (and faster processors) running Cyrus 2.5. I've muddled through most of the migration. Simply shutting down the services, using rsync to duplicate the
