Help undeleting a user's INBOX

2020-05-24 Thread Mikhail T.
The thunderbird view of a user's mailbox tree had a mysterious nameless subfolder. Because the subfolder was showing empty, I instructed the user to just delete it through the mail program, which he did. Now his INBOX itself is empty and the server logs has the following entries: May 24

I'd like to move my current spool from a single (fast) disk to ZFS. Any suggestions for the filesystem-parameters? Do I want deduplication, for example? Compression? Recordsize? Thanks! -mi Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info:

This particular mailing list appears available as the gmane Newsgroup: gmane.mail.imap.cyrus readable via the web or NNTP. Do Gmane use Cyrus software? Do they have their configuration of it available for browsing? I suspect, the answer is no to both... Perhaps, I was not clear -- I

After being moved, messages remain in both folders on the server

2012-03-29 Thread Mikhail T.
I just noticed, that, when I move a message from INBOX to a folder in Thunderbird (via IMAP), the file on the server sometimes remains in both directories: /var/spool/imap/user/mi//message/. and /var/spool/imap/user/mi//folder///message/. The copies are a hardlink, so little space is
