Hi again Daniel. I just saw that you use cyrus-imapd-2.2.10, packaged in YDL 4.0. And this bug has been fixed in autocreate patch for cyrus-2.2.10 for quite sometime.
The autocreate patch for cyrus-imapd-2.2.10 (patch versions 0.9.0 & 0.9.1) checks userinbox variable and does not sefault. <snip from autocreate_inbox() in lmtpd.c patch 0.9.0> + + if(rcpt_userid == NULL) + return IMAP_MAILBOX_NONEXISTENT; + </snip> So what I can think of are the following : 1. Your distro did not include this fix in the distributed cyrus package. 2. Segfault is caused by something else. Please check your sources and let me know if I can do something to fix it. Regards, Christos Daniel Hazelbaker said: Okay, after knocking down our mail server for an hour to track this down I have a solution. I do not remember where, but somewhere when I was setting this up years ago I read that the method for delivering from postfix->procmail->spamassassin->cyrus was to have postfix deliver to procmail, and procmail instruct spamassassin to do its thing. Then to use the cyrus deliver program with "-a $LOGNAME -m user.$LOGNAME" to deliver the message. Well what was happening is this: Breakpoint 1, verify_user (user=0x0, domain=0x0, mailbox=0x100f8189 "user.kristina", quotacheck=0, authstate=0x0) at lmtpd.c:554 This combination (user = null and mailbox != null and mailbox does not exist) would cause verify_user to pass userinbox (== null) to autocreate_inbox, which would strcmp without any error checking and segfault. The solution seems to be to change the deliver line to just "-a $LOGNAME $LOGNAME" and it seems to work properly for everything.
