I recall Bron telling us that the upgrade from 2.4.x to 2.5.x would be
completely painless. That was mostly, but not completely true.
A bunch of variable names in /etc/cyrus/imapd.conf changed (OK, that was
easy to fix), and the upgrade did mostly work out of the box. There was
one issue, however, and there are some new and improved error messages
in the logs that I'm sufficiently OCD to have questions about.
One one of my installs, I had this line in /etc/cyrus.conf:
squatter_a cmd="/usr/sbin/squatter" at=0517
This worked for 2.4.17, but caused cyrus-master to fail to start with
this error message:
Sep 19 05:27:58 www cyrus/master[29646]: configuration file
/etc/cyrus/cyrus.conf: bad character '_' in name on line 57
Sep 19 05:27:58 www systemd[1]: cyrus-master.service: Main process
exited, code=exited, status=78/n/a
For the time being, I just commented out the squatter line. I'm unclear
on how necessary it is to re-index the mailboxes every day. If
necessary/useful, did the syntax for this command change?
Also, I'm now getting these warnings (maybe some were there for 2.4.17,
I can't remember):

-----------------------------
We're not using ipv6 -- is there any way to let cyrus know so that it
doesn't freak out?
Second, where is this coming from?
Sep 19 05:44:54 toad cyrus/master[22860]: setrlimit: Unable to set
file descriptors limit to -1: Operation not permitted
Finally, should I worry about this?
setsocketopt(IP_TOS) service lmtpunix/unix: Operation not supported
Thanks.
