I see this in my /var/log/maillog way too much:

Q: Repeated messages in syslog: "Failed to create cache file: maildirwatch (user) Error: Input/output error Check for proper operation and configuration of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd)." How can I solve it?


A:This means that Courier was compiled with File Alteration Monitor (FAM), but FAM is not running, or is not configured. If you have FAM installed you can add it to a runlevel and start it. Some FAM configuration use portmapper, so you will need to have portmap running also. You can also see "man 8 imapd" for more information.
