Hi All.

I am using cyrus-imapd 2.2.12 with nntp-functions enabled.
I was using instructions from http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/imapd/install-netnews.html to get some nntp-groups to my local server and to be able to access all the posts history using IMAP


It went fine, until I tried to get a really big newsgroup..
looking thru /var/spool/imap/folder/corresponding/to/group I can see that I managed to get 12708 messages.. but the problem is, that I just can't access those using IMAP-protocol.


Here is the listing of the session:

* OK t1.cjlohbi.su Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12 server ready
1 login myusername mypassword
1 OK User logged in
2 id nil
* ID ("name" "Cyrus IMAPD" "version" "v2.2.12 2005/02/14 16:43:51" "vendor" "Project Cyrus" "support-url" "http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus"; "os" "OpenBSD" "os-version" "3.6" "environment" "Built w/Cyrus SASL 2.1.13; Running w/Cyrus SASL 2.1.13; Built w/Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.2.52: (December 3, 2003); Running w/Sleepycat Software: Berkeley DB 4.2.52: (December 3, 2003); Built w/OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004; Running w/OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004; CMU Sieve 2.2; mmap = nommap; lock = fcntl; nonblock = fcntl; auth = unix; idle = idled")
2 OK Completed
3 select nntp.name.of.that.newsgroup
* FLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen)
* OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Seen)]
* BYE Fatal error: Virtual memory exhausted
Connection closed by foreign host.



Everything works fine with smaller groups.
Also, I was watching top, during this session - I didn't see a single sign of memory exhaustion - there's plenty of it.


and, yes, there are no ulimits set

should it be considered a bug report?
