Deletemailbox patch for cyrus.
Hello all, A new patch for cyrus 2.2.5 is released today. Cyrus imap doesn't remove the quota from a folder when this folder is deleted except if the folder is user.X folder. There are some comments in Cyrus code about possible places where code can be inserted to deal with this situation. This patch is a suggestion on the behaviour of cyrus-imap when a folder is deleted. With this patch the quota is removed in two cases: 1)The user explicitely requests the deletetion of quota. In order to request the deletion of the quota the convention that + must procceed the name of the folder was used. i.e if i want to delete the folder koko.lala and remove the the quota the command would be: . delete +koko.lala 2)The soon-to-be-deleted-folder's quota root has no subfolders. Then we can assume that the reasonable thing to do is to delete also the quota. This actually can mean two things. If the folder's quota root is the folder himself then this means that this folder has no subfolder. If the folder's quota root is a higher-level non-existent subfolder this means that the soon-to-be-deleted-folder is its only subfolder. You can grab the patch at the following URL : http://email.uoa.gr/projects/cyrus/quota-patches/deletemailbox/index.html This patch is not heavily tested. For comments, bug reports, suggestions don't hesitate to contact me.

System I/O errors after Cyrus upgrade
I upgrade from Cyrus 2.0.16 to Cyrus 2.2.5 this past weekend. I also upgrade Postfix from 1.x to 2.1.1. After running for a little while, I get the error messages below. If I run a "postfix flush", the message usually get delivered fine. I've seen some talk on the list about System I/O errors and interaction with Postfix, Cyrus and LMTP, but I haven't a solution that worked for my situation. Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Spam Filtering in lmtpd
Hi all I have setup cyrus and sendmail with spamass-milter and clam-milter and am very happy with it. The one problem (besides user-based bayes databases) is that every mail gets spam-scanned, even if only relayed. My idea now is that only those messages should be passed to spamd that are to be delivered locally. If I'm not totally wrong this can't be done with the sendmail milter concept. I think the best possibility would be to implement the milter concept in the local delivery agent, which is lmtpd in most cyrus cases. This would mean e.g. to call an external scanner through a socket from lmtpd in order to determine if the mail can be delivered. Now my humble questions: Is there any way to do this with the current lmtpd? If no, is anybody working on something similar? In any case: Does anybody see a significant disadvantage in the concept? If 3xno, I might try to give it a shot ... holidays allowing ;-) Ken/Rob: where would you put such a function in lmtpd? rgds /markus --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
2.1.13 Case Sensitive problem
Hi, i've been having some problems dealing with cyrus mailbox case sensitive. I cant get around it. I tried to use "lmtp_downcase_rcpt: 1" on imapd.conf but is seems to make no difference. I use postfix along with cyrus in a FreeBSD 5.1 platform. Postfix is case insensitive and, although I force the user to exist in passwd, it makes no difference concerning the case. The problem arises when postfix tries to deliver to cyrus mailbox, it can't, ofcourse. I am open to ideas.

If you want to make MTA reject messages based on headers then it should be done in reply to "the final dot" (otherwise the gain is too little). It creates a lot of problems for multi recipient messages - you can only reject message to *all* recipients at this stage. Spammers are ready to use/abuse every "blind spot". Some time ago I suggested passing to cyrus sieve parameters available at "RCPT TO:" stage for cyrus recipients (connecting host IP and name, envelope sender address, envelope recipient address) to allow cyrus sieve reject messages before message body is transmitted.

I had a similar issue - cyr_expire would hang indefinitely, causing quite a few of them to be hanging around after a few days. It turned out to be deliver db corruption as found by db_verify; nuking the deliver db did the trick nicely as db_recover couldn't fix it.

I'm running cyrus imap 2.2.3 and have just started experiencing some very strange events when cyr_expire runs. It seems to somehow get "hung" in some sort of loop and starts eating serious amounts of cpu and then disk space in the system and impd logfiles. This results in enormous logfiles and the resultant 108% of my /var partition soon causes problems! It's possible that cyr_expire isn't the cause, but the one common factor in all instances has been cyr_expire eating cpu. The log files aren't available as I need to delete them to restore the system to a functioning state :( Anyone come across this before or have any ideas about what might be causing it?
