In /etc/fstab, specify the "noatime" option for the partition on which your mailspool reside. > > 2. no "sync mounts" or "sync attributes" anywhere.

With the 2.1.x serie, this is a ./configure option : --with-mboxlist-db=skiplist (do "./configure --help for the full list of configure option). I * think* this is configurable in /etc/imapd.conf int he 2.2.x serie. Am I right ? BTW, would skiplist be the best mailboxes db on an mupdate master in a 2.1.x Murder ? -- Etienne Goyer Linux Québec Technologies Inc. http://www.LinuxQuebec.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
