If you put this in your imapd.conf, Cyrus should create hard links for messages delivered to multiple recipients. singleinstancestore: true Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

The best documentation is in the wiki, and anyone getting a useful answer from these lists ought to feel obliged to update that documentation. > I had a few questions > > 1) How does replication happen The various Cyrus programs which run on the primary backend (imapd, pop3d, lmtpd) write to a sync log (/var/imap/sync/log in my environment) as various data changing events occur. The data in the log typicall names the thing that changed, not what the change was, e.g., "MAILBOX user.wes" means that something about the mailbox changed. sync_client reads this log and connects to sync_server running on the replica backend. The data in the log gives sync_client a hint of where to look for changes between the primary and the replica backends. sync_client will then examine mailboxes, acls, seen state, etc, on the primary backend and ask sync_server for similar information on the replica backend. Changes are transmitted from sync_client to sync_server and stored on the replica backend. > 2) Can it happen to more than one slave Not in the current implementation, tho changing it to replicated to more than one replica backend wouldn't be super complex. Someone familiar with Cyrus internals could do it in a few weeks of coding, I would estimate. > 3) Does replication also replicate the mailboxes ( users ? ) This question doesn't really make much sense to me. All pertinent information is replicated. :wes Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

cyrus replication how does it work
I was looking at the replication doc here at http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/install-replication.html ( seems incomplete ) Is there a complete documentation somewhere. I had a few questions 1) How does replication happen 2) Can it happen to more than one slave 3) Does replication also replicate the mailboxes ( users ? ) Thanks Ram Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

What's your admin setting in imapd.conf? Is the cyrus user listed there? If not, you should add it - cyrus is the default for the admin username, but you may use anything you like. If you change the setting, you may not do admin jobs using the "cyrus" user. If you don't have an "admin" or "admins" (I don't know the exact name of the option - please refer to the documentation for that), you should try to add it to your config.

Re: Permission denied with creating mailboxes
Manfred, Obvious question: is 'cyrus' listed as an administrator on the 'admins:' line in imapd.conf? If not, do it then restart or reload cyrus.

Hello, I use debian etch with cyrus 2.2 and sasl2. cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost IMAP Password: localhost> localhost> localhost> cm users.testusr createmailbox: Permission denied I cannot find out, why this happens. There are no log messages, no information about the reasons. It should be nice to get reasons from the program... I do check the ownership of files (/etc/sasldb2, /var/lib/cyrus/*, /imap/*) and so on. I think, the user "cyrus" has not the right to create mailboxes. But I don't know, how to set this right.

Problem with thunderbird
Hi, I've got a problem with Thunderbird when I want to subscribe to shared folder. My configuration is a Cyrus Murder with one front-end (with a mupdate master on it) and two backends. One backend keep all mailbox' users and the other one keep all shared mailbox... Everything goes right with Mail.app... but with Thunderbird we cannot access to shared folder. But the listing is ok. Does Someone already have this problem ? Is there a way to get Thunderbird working ?
