Message Number in Email Notification
Hi All, Cyrus email notification facility is a great feature. But I wonder if it's possible to add to give the Email Message Number (UID), also to come in that notification. As I can see if the notification is generated after the email is saved in the perticular mailbox, it shouldn't be that complax to get the ID. Please update with any sort of information regarding this matter. Thanks in advanced! Eranga

The problem with having lmtpd talk SMTP is that the SMTP server might give a temporary failure, and it's not totally clear what lmtpd should do then. Return failure to the MTA? Discard the attempt to send outgoing messages? Actually, lmtpd already has this problem (/usr/sbin/sendmail might be unhappy for some reason) but it is less frequent. If you search Freshmeat, you can find simple programs that will pretend to be /usr/sbin/sendmail and deliver to an SMTP server. Larry Hmm. This would require lmtpd to speak [E]SMTP. There is client-side LMTP code in lmtpengine.c which we might be able to use for this purpose. This would eliminate problems with incompatible command-line options (IIRC, Postfix doesn't like '-f <>') I would imagine that the option would be something like 'host[:port]'. This way we could talk to a MSA (port 587) as well as a MTA. I can take a look at this possibility for 2.1.1.

Or that's how I understand it... --mika

SMTP with Sieve
Greetings. Is there a way to configure the following line in the imapd.conf file to use an SMTP port instead of the local delivery agent? sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail change to something like: sendmail: servername.domain The problem I am facing is that our systems use Postfix instead of Sendmail. The Cyrus and Postfix configuration we are using is based on the -C config option. This means "servers" are bound to specific IP addresses, and not physical systems. Sieve is using the local delivery agent to send outgoing messages (like vacation, rejections, etc.) which is not configured for virtual servers - therefore having Sieve use an SMTP server would eliminate all configuration problems. Is this possible? Thanks -John

Does anyone want to fill me out on this?? To export mailboxes.db to a text file: ctl_mboxlist -d > tempfile To restore it later: ctl_mboxlist -u < tempfile (start I-might-be-wrong section:) The point in this is that the fine option for rebuilding the master mailbox database from scratch (reconstruct -m) DOES NOT WORK for some reason in Cyrus 2.0.16, even if it is on the man page. Once you screw up the mailboxes.db (or some of the huge files under db/*, they are part of the same database), Cyrus has lost knowledge of your mailboxes and their ACLs. That's when you'll need the tempfile you created above to recreate the mailbox database first. The remaining mailbox data and their contents can be then salvaged from the mail store with 'reconstruct -r user.*' after pulling them from regular backups. Fixing quotas (quota -f) might also be necessary. Cyrus uses the DB3 libraries in a transactional manner, so a backup taken from a running system will not be enough to restore it to a consistent state. After a crash, you can use the DB utilities to "roll back" the events to a previous safe point in time, which is saved periodically (the checkpoint events in cyrus.conf you always wondered about, but was afraid to ask...). If you want to know more, read the gigabyte of fine documentation at www.sleepycat.com :-) I don't know what should be done with deliver.db and its contents (might be safe to just delete before restart?) and whether singleinstancestore on or off affects that. Would anyone who actually knows this stuff care to comment? --mika
Re: [PATCH] daemonization support for master
This one is a bit more complete. Requires PID support, and
start-stop-daemon (i.e. it is for Debian, and I do not know if it is
portable to other places; you can always get our start-stop-daemon,
everything in Debian is free software).
You'll likely want to change DAEMON to master (we use cyrmaster in Debian),
for example.
The non-pidfile version I had before was so gross I wrote the pidfile
support to get rid of it :P
BTW, I also place the sockets under /var/run/cyrus, as per the FHS...

I already heard people complaining like "this IMAP stuff is much worse than the POP3 and is not working at all" and sending me links to the sites trying to prove that whole UNIX concept is quite bad idea... About the subject. What about following quick solution: First, lets forget preforking. Second, lets modify master process to maintain table of incoming connections and certain timeouts. Next imapd daemon will be launched from same originator (IP address) only after certain timeout has expired. Worst case: local network is accessing mailserver though NAT-box. The performance is reduced for all connections. Not so bad case: multiple connections from same client are little bit "spread" in time and therefore reducing the risk of fetching wrong results from the server. All other connections are working OK. Performance is reduced only for creating connections, overall performance is not affected. I haven't read listings yet, so I'll ask before hacking: is it worth of trying? heiki

You got some options: backup over the imap protocol. Never done this, anyone got an example of how? other libe backupmethods Never done this either. ame as above.

Re: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender
I thought it was time to demonstrate my cyrus/exim ignorance. Would anyone like to say what is wrong with the headers generated by exim in the message below that would have caused cyrus to reject it ? I was creating a seperate director to handle a limited set of "top level" mailboxes in the cyrus tree. I already have a working cyrus_users director which using a cyrus_lmtp transport to deliver messages to user mailboxes. This uses an lmtp driver and the cyrus deliver program with the "-l" option. Not knowing any better I created a new director cirus_boxes and a new transport cyrus_pipe to handle a selected list of top level mailboxes in our cyrus tree. There may be a much simpler approach. The cyrus_pipe transport uses the pipe director and uses the cyrus deliver program again but with "-m $local_part". When I run the command by hand from a shell it seems to work fine but when exim uses the deliver command this way it rejects the message. Below is what was returned by exim. It looks as thought deliver has rejected a header in the message. The message I delivered by hand would not have included the headers generated by exim. Here is the cyrus_pipe transport from my configuration file: cyrus_pipe: driver = pipe command = "/usr/pkg/cyrus/bin/deliver -m $local_part" user = cyrus group = mail delivery_date_add envelope_to_add return_path_add return_output ignore_status = false temp_errors = 75 On Monday 03 Dec 2001 6:17 pm, you wrote: > This message was created automatically by mail delivery software > (Exim). > > A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of > its recipients.
