I just converted a system to qmail wtih Maildir delivery. Most clients seem
fine but one client rang up who said that Netscape would connect, start
downloading headers and then hang. I assumed this was to do with Netscapes
inaccurate progress bar and a large message but later that day got a call
from one of the other administrators who said that Maildir/new was empty but
there were files in Maildir/cur. I suggested copying the files to new and
seeing if she could download then which I assume worked as I didn't hear
back. Does anyone know what would cause this?
This is a little embarrassing as I assured them it would be an unoticeable
transition and I also managed to bounce some virtual domain mail :-(. On
the bright side the previous admin munged *all* the aliases and virtual
domains on a sendmail install on a new machine so I haven't been drawn and
quartered yet.
