I'll second this. I had the same thing happen to me after I had Cyrus 2.1.2 running for about a month. The problem is that if one of the .db files (i.e. mailboxes.db) gets corrupted and you haven't set up a hot backup of your db files, the recovery process has to go through EVERY db transaction

Valid points have been brought up on all sides. Just adding my $0.02: From an administrative standpoint, it is *not* all right to lose potentially legitimate mail without notifying the sender, unless every user on your system has been made FULLY aware of the risk and agrees with the policy.

Re: Error message when deleting

2002-04-19 Thread julesa
IMAP clients like Netscape whose delete function (by default?) tries to copy a message to a Trash folder before removing the message from the current mailbox will also exhibit this problem if the user quota is exceeded. Do you have a default quota set? Users find this frustrating because even

Re: Purge utilities?

Each message can have flags attached to it, such as /Seen and /Deleted. No messages are actually removed from the mailbox until an Expunge command is performed on the mailbox. When an Expunge command is executed, all the messages that have the /Deleted flag set will be removed. Most IMAP e-mail

You could do this with any IMAP library in the language of your choice. I prefer Perl for quick scripts like this one, but it's by no means the only way to go. So a very simple approach would look like this in the IMAP commands exchanged between your program and Cyrus: * OK mail.cpicorp.com

Re: not receiving quota warnings

2002-03-27 Thread julesa
The notification built into Cyrus isn't an e-mail notification; Cyrus returns an 'over quota' error message to the mail client via the IMAP protocol. If the mail client doesn't display the error, it's a problem with whatever mail client you are using. The messages should not be lost unless the

Tom, Look in the sieve directory (sievedir in imapd.conf, I think) for the script you uploaded. You may need to create a symlink there to default, like so: ln -s /usr/sieve/j/julesa/default.script /usr/sieve/j/julesa/default I don't know why it doesn't create the symlink automatically

Intermittent mailbox lockups

We've been living with this problem for some time, but it seems to be occurring more often as we add users. It's still very intermittent, it hits about three users a week. What happens is one of their mailboxes just locks up and will not accept any new mail. Killing the master and restarting it
