Make sure you set appropriate permissions on the directory so that cyrus can write to it. Telemetry logging logs each interaction between the client and the server, except for authentication, which isn't logged. Also, if you're receiving a pop lock response, that probably does not get logged in telemetry logging either, so you should also monitor your syslog for connection attempts. You want to verify that the client is sending a 'quit' at the end of each telemetry log. - Dan Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

It turned out to be caused by the used file system for /var/lib/imap. We used reiserfs there - the system itself is a openSUSE 11.1 and has been older SUSE-variants before. After reformatting with xfs, which we have used for the mailbox partitions everything went smooth again. I didi not follow this issue, as the system had to be running without flaws in the shortest possible time. This should be no reiserfs-bashing. I use it frequently without problems, but here it broke something.
