Conditional unixhierarchysep ?
Is it possible to, for some clients, have unixhierarchysep be enabled, but not touch other clients? I only have one single machine for testing, and I'm loathe to change things on everyone without testing things out myself (specifically, the user pain of migration). Alternately, can this be done on a per instance of imapd basis, ie on a different port number? Kind of ditto for altnamespace .. :-)

Cyrus IMAP question.
Hello, I am using Cyrus IMAP 2.1.15 with Sendmail. I've spent lot of time trying to set up my IMAP clients (M$ Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird and The Bat!) to work with it but I keep having problems with folders. Whenever I create a user (e.g. cm user.test), each of these clients gets an non-selectable folder user, then fodler test which contains all user's messages. I tried to play with IMAP root setting on the clients, but it does not seem to help much. If I make user.test my IMAP root - I am unable to see the messages :). I can not set INBOX as my IMAP root (all clients report server error, something like: Your specified Root Folder Path of 'INBOX' could neither be found nor created. Please verify your Root Folder Path is correct, and that your IMAP account is properly configured. When I use 'user.test' in this situation, everything works just fine, except that I can not see the messages (apparentely, they are left higher in the folder hierarchy). I am trying to manually create an inbox folder for users, something like 'cm user.test.INBOX' and try to deliver one's main to this manually created folder. This is to put all the folder (Sent Items, Drafts etc) under the same 'user.test' and make it look good. I tried to find something on the Net but failed. Is there a way for me to configure my Sendmail so the LMTP delivery (I am using local mailer 'cyrusv2' which is supposed to be LMTP) puts all e-mails into 'user.username.INBOX' folder? Here is the piece of my sendmail.mc: define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')dnl ...skipped... MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl MAILER(cyrusv2)dnl Also, I have one more question. I tried to use pop3d to access my IMAP account, but whenever I connect to POP3 daemon, the client reports an error (after authentication, which works just fine): 18.09.2003, 12:16:44: FETCH - TLS handshake complete 18.09.2003, 12:16:45: FETCH - connected to POP3 server !18.09.2003, 12:16:48: FETCH - Server reports error. The response is: -ERR [SYS/PERM] Unable to open maildrop It seems to me that it is still something related to the INBOX folder. Everything I tried does not seem to help much. Any ideas on what that is? Thank you very much for your help. -- Best regards, Denis mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello Andrew,
AM What you see as the Cyrus admin is a little different that what an IMAP
AM user sees. user.test is the Inbox folder, but user's access it as
AM INBOX. Unless you have set altnamespace: yes in your imapd.conf file,
AM you should set your Root Folder Path to INBOX. (note the period after
AM INBOX).
I tried the INBOX., but even with the period after INBOX, I receive
the same message in M$ Outlook Express (your specified Root Folder of
'INBOX' could not neither be found nor created...). With Mozilla
Thunderbird, I just see nothing (no error message, no folders, no
messages). So the presence of the period did not change anything.
I am trying to manually create an inbox folder for users, something
like 'cm user.test.INBOX' and try to deliver one's main to this
manually created folder. This is to put all the folder (Sent Items,
Drafts etc) under the same 'user.test' and make it look good. I tried
to find something on the Net but failed. Is there a way for me to
AM user.test is the INBOX, as seen from the admin viewpoint. Mail
AM delivered to user test will go into that mailbox. Subfolders would be
AM user.test.subfolder from the admin viewpoint and INBOX.subfolder from
AM the user viewpoint.
But in the mail clients, they usually have something like Inbox,
Sent Items, Drafts etc located under the same root. So by creating
additional folder named 'Inbox' manually under user's INBOX (which is
user.username), I tried to make it work without having user.username
in my mail clients (which is not just sort of ugly, but also prevent
the clients from being able to store appropriate messages on server).
Is is a wrong approach?
Most likely it is somewhat stupid I've done, but I really can not
realize what that is. Also, as I mentioned in the previos cry for
help message, I am unable to get a pop3 connection. The error message
is
!18.09.2003, 13:35:06: FETCH - Server reports error. The response is:
-ERR [SYS/PERM] Unable to open maildrop
that makes me suspect that the problem of invalid (from client's view)
INBOXes is somewhat related to the pop3 as well. I am reallyl confused
now and have no slightest clue what to do further.

It sounds like it cannot find the mailbox where it wants to--in the

Re[4]: Cyrus IMAP question.
Hello Connie, CSF It sounds like it cannot find the mailbox where it wants to--in the CSF /var/cyrus/partition/users/username directory. Did you create the CSF mailboxes? CSF c* The path is correct and I have created the mailboxes. I used this mini-FAQpageas a reference (http://www.abstrakt.ch/unix/MINI-HOWTO-openbsd-cyrus.html) because I am using OpenBSD.

Suhanov wrote: Hello Andrew, AM What you see as the Cyrus admin is a little different that what an IMAP AM user sees. user.test is the Inbox folder, but user's access it as AM INBOX. Unless you have set altnamespace: yes in your imapd.conf file, AM you should set your Root Folder Path to INBOX. (note the period after AM INBOX). I tried the INBOX., but even with the period after INBOX, I receive the same message in M$ Outlook Express (your specified Root Folder of 'INBOX' could not neither be found nor created...). With Mozilla Thunderbird, I just see nothing (no error message, no folders, no messages). So the presence of the period did not change anything. I use altnamespace: yes here, so these docs won't work exactly right, but you might try the documentation we have written for configuring clients to use Cyrus IMAP: http://www.onid.orst.edu/docs/email/ Basically, you should just need to add the Root Folder Path setting of INBOX. to these instructions. Also, you *must* refresh the folder listing in the email client. Outlook Express does not automatically do this on an existing account. For testing purposes at least, I'd delete all the account settings in the email client and set it up from scratch, using the instructions above. I am trying to manually create an inbox folder for users, something like 'cm user.test.INBOX' and try to deliver one's main to this manually created folder. This is to put all the folder (Sent Items, Drafts etc) under the same 'user.test' and make it look good. I tried to find something on the Net but failed. Is there a way for me to AM user.test is the INBOX, as seen from the admin viewpoint. Mail AM delivered to user test will go into that mailbox. Subfolders would be AM user.test.subfolder from the admin viewpoint and INBOX.subfolder from AM the user viewpoint. But in the mail clients, they usually have something like Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts etc located under the same root. So by creating additional folder named 'Inbox' manually under user's INBOX (which is user.username), I tried to make it work without having user.username in my mail clients (which is not just sort of ugly, but also prevent the clients from being able to store appropriate messages on server). Is is a wrong approach? For maximum compatibility and ease of use, I'd recommend setting altnamespace: yes in imapd.conf. Otherwise, you *have* to set the Root Folder Path to INBOX. to get folders to work. Read the documentation for altnamespace before you make this change. Basically, nothing changes on the server side (except sieve filters), but you eliminate the needs to set the Root Folder Prefix on every client. Most clients will work out of the box this way (no special settings, just use the New Account Wizards). Most likely it is somewhat stupid I've done, but I really can not realize what that is. Also, as I mentioned in the previos cry for help message, I am unable to get a pop3 connection. The error message is I don't know much about the pop side of things. We only run imap here. I'd start by getting one of your imap clients working to make sure cyrus is happy, then work on the pop problem. Andy

Cyrus versus Sun ONE?
We may be deciding to replace our current sendmail MTA and Cyrus IMAP server installation with the Sun ONE messaging server, because we already have the licences for Sun ONE as part of another product. Everything I have heard about Sun ONE has been positive. Is it really that good? What are we likely to lose if we make this move? I'm quite pleased with Cyrus. -- -Gary Mills--Unix Support--U of M Academic Computing and Networking-
pop3 mail not deleting.
I have a bit of odd pop3 problem. Just one of
my email clients is reporting a problem with
Outlook and pop3. Spefically he has sent
Outlook to leave mail on the server up to 5 days.
The problem is after several weeks mail older
than 5 days is no longer deleted from server.
In order to delete mail I have hime momentary set
Outlook not save mail on server. After the mail
is deleted and the option to leave 5 days
of mail on server is turned back on,everything
works OK for several weeks. Anyone else
have same problem?

FUD and cyrus statistics
Hello, I would like to start collecting statistics on users and how often they access their cyrus accounts on our mail servers. I wanted to use FUD to acomplish this however a look at the manpage and a google search didnt pull up anything. Can somebody point me in the right direction about setting something like this up or how to begin going about it? I appreciate any help. Thanks again. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I'm not directly familiar with the Sun ONE server (though I do know a few of the Sun messaging people, and they tend to have their heads screwed on right), but I suspect the tradeoffs you'll have will be more or less similar to any open/closed source product tradeoff -- there's better support and more attention to the UI, but it will be harder to fix things directly by getting your hands dirty. You'll also have to deal with the transition. Then again, if the unification of all of their products is to be believed, it may make your life easier in the long run. Though, as far as direct features on its own, it looks like it compares with something like sendmail+cyrus+webcyradm+squirrelmail (only integrated, of course). If you're happy with what you have, I don't see a reason to undergo the pain of the transition. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
Migrating mailboxes between Cyrus instances?
I've been googling around without much luck - I'm looking for suggestions on migrating users between cyrus instances (for load balancing). I'm thinking it should really be done at the IMAP level, rather than dicking around inside the message store, but I'm worried there might be message attributes than can't be readily copied via the imap protocol. Anyone have any advice? -- Andrew McNamara, Senior Developer, Object Craft http://www.object-craft.com.au/
Slow status calls...
I was noticing that IMAP 'status' calls to update the message counts in our web interface seemed to be taking quite a bit of time. I ran a stand alone script to check this, and found: Time: 0.002, msgs:12, unseen:10, folder: INBOX.spam Time: 0.004, msgs: 18978, unseen: 18978, folder: INBOX.postfix Time: 4.930, msgs: 24688, unseen: 5002, folder: INBOX.mod_perl Time: 0.010, msgs: 2707, unseen: 2707, folder: INBOX.processed Strange, one folder in particular was taking a long time to status, while all the other folders, including a folder of similar size were several orders of magnitude faster! Having a quick look in the spool dir, everything seemed ok.
