Hello,
I have a problem with FreeBSD and cyrus-imapd.
I have never been able to solve this.
The problem is intermittent and it happens from time to time after a
system rebooot.
Jun 17 00:00:11 postino sm-mta[201]: h5GM0A7T000201: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=cyrusv2, pri=31024,
relay=localhostv, dsn=4.4.1, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by
localhost
actually looks like the /var/imap/socket/lmtp is not accessible
but this is weird, in fact my cyrus configuration is perfect and
the file permissions are correct, in particular:
srwxrwxrwx 1 root cyrus 0 Feb 9 09:47 /var/imap/socket/lmtp
This behaviour is unpredictable and it happens after a reboot to the mail
server.
this is my cyrus configuration into sendmail.cf
Mcyrusv2, P=[IPC], F=lsDFMnqXzA@/:|m,
S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, E=\r\n,
T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP,
U=cyrus:cyrus,
A=FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp
(note that I tryed with U=cyrus:cyrus and without it as well)
When this problem happens to me I have to do this modification to solve
it:
Mcyrusv2, P=/usr/local/cyrus/bin/deliver, F=lsDFMnqXA@/:|m,
S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL,
E=\r\n, T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP,
U=cyrus:cyrus,
A=deliver -e -m $h -- $u
I have to call deliver directly even if this is very ugly, but it works.
If after a few hours I Come back to the lmtp cyrus-sendmail configuration
the system comes back working using /var/imap/socket/lmtp
I really don't know how to solve this.
I am sure my configuration is correct.
I use sendmail + cyrus on many boxes, many flavours of unix, Linux, SGI,
Solaris, but I had this problem only with FreeBSD since version 5.0
Anyone had an experience like mine ?
It seems I can't find a solution and this is really overwhelming
since in this way my mail server si quite unstable.
A Reboot can simply screw the whole mail system.
Could the problem be related to /var/imap/socket/lmtp file and
soft updates ??
I ma actually running latest sendmail + latest cyrus version
thank you very much
Rick
