Using the IMAP protocol is definately the recommended way. If your client will let you use drag-and-drop, go ahead and do that. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
Message management question
Hello, I wonder, is there any way to put my mail archive into a new Cyrus account? I have quite a few messages I've received on my old pop account. They are stored on my client locally but I can export them pretty much to any known message format. In fact, I can even use drag-and-drop features of the client program to move the messages into an IMAP account. I am just not sure whether it is going to be OK and what would be the safest way to have it done. Will I have to perform some additional steps to update the account databases? What is the "right" way to insert existing messages into user's account and transfer messages among accounts? Thank you very much. Sincerely yours, Denis
Re: ipurge, or automatic expiration feature.
Ah. I couldn't find much information under ipurge for how to specify the mailbox, so I assumed when I did an ipurge -h and saw: -f force also to delete mail below user.* and INBOX.* that it meant that user was to be replied by the person's username. Ones. Thanks a lot! However, even though under the cyrus account it doesn't give me any error messages, it still doesn't seem to work. I issue the command: ipurge -f -d 1 mrl.INBOX.Spam But messages still stay in my Spam folder. Any suggestions? Thanks. ipurge -f -d 1 user.mrl.Spam -- Kenneth Murchison Oceana Matrix Ltd.

My efforts in this regard keep getting pushed back due to too many other things flying around, but I've been told that Sun Cluster *should* respect full local filesystem semantics.

Re: Can some users to use only POP3 and other to use IMAP and POP3?
Hi! If you use PAM for authorization, you can permit different groups of users for only one protocol. In general, you can modify SASL authorization for support of groups. Regards, Konstantin.

On 30 July 2003 Matt Bernstein started a thread entitled "requiring encryption but not from localhost?", where Scott Adkins proposed a solution. I implemented something more or less like he proposed, and it worked. Specifically, I created a second imapd.conf (imapd-local.conf) and configured it with allowplaintext: yes. Then, I edited my cyrus.conf to look like the following: imaplocal cmd="imapd -U 30 -C /etc/imapd-local.conf" listen="localhost:ima plocal" prefork=0 maxchild=100 imapcmd="imapd -U 30" listen="imap" prefork=0 maxchild=100 imaps cmd="imapd -s -U 30" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100 I couldn't get imaplocal to listen localhost on the imap port, so I defined an "imaplocal" port in /etc/services as port 144, and pointed webmail at that. All is well now...webmail from localhost gets plaintext, and everyone else gets IMAPS or IMAP/STARTTLS. If I had to guess, the reason you couldn't get imaplocal to listen to localhost:imap is probably because the imap and imaps services were already listening on the imap/imaps ports, specifically *:imap and *:imaps. I don't know what order Cyrus internally starts to configure the ports for listening on, but that is likely the issue here (port binding). The solution that should work is the following (trimmed for clarity): imaplocal cmd="imapd -C /etc/imapd-local.conf" listen="localhost:imap" imap cmd="imapd" listen="hostname:imap" imaps cmd="imapd -s" listen="hostname:imaps" Whatever the hostname of your machine is should replace "hostname" in the above configuration. If you want to be able to telnet to the imaps port on localhost for who knows what reason, then take "hostname" out of the "imaps" line and just leave it as "imaps". Hope that helps...

Can some users to use only POP3 and other to use IMAP and POP3?

Header lines inserted when using deliver
Hello. Due to a non-standard configuration the mail is delivered to an imap mailbox through the procmail. In each user home directory there is a procmailrc file containing ":0 | tail +2 | /usr/cyrus/bin/deliver -a `whoami` `whoami`" So when the message is delivered to an imap mailbox there are additional header lines "Return-Path:" and "Received:" pointing to the local account. Here what happens: Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from mail.mydomain.com ([unix socket]) by mail.mydomain.com (Cyrus v2.1.14) with LMTP; Wed, 08 Oct 2003 12:03:12 +0400 Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from mail.anotherdomain.com ([EMAIL PROTECTED] [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) by mail.mydomain.com (8.12.9/8.12.9) with ESMTP id h98836ji003128 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Wed, 8 Oct 2003 12:03:11 +0400 ...
