I did see your reply. But I'm using news.gname.org. > Why was /var/lib/imap/mailboxes.db there? > Did you have a previous version of cyrus-imapd manually installed (i.e > not via rpm)? I guess it might came from postfix or squirrelmail or php-imap module came with mandrake. I can't remember what I did with this box as I'm trying to throw things together and make it work. > If there's no useful data there, I suggest you remove the rpm, rm -rf > /var/lib/imap, rm -rf /var/spool/imap and reinstall the rpm. Since I only have root on this box, I did exactly want you suggested above. I'm using the latest RPM for 9.1 from your site. The install seems to be smooth. Thanks. May I ask how can I recreate a root mailbox so mail can be delivered for root? Thanks and Regards, Norman
