murder setup - mailboxes.db corruption - trouble recovering with ctl_mboxlist
We have a RHEL4u7 on all 5 servers: 1 mupdate master: mumailmaster 2 backends: mumailstore01, mumailstore02 2 Postfix MTA/Cyrus proxy frontends: mumail01, mumail02 So I started getting this on my backends around 14:15 EST, at which time mail started getting deferred to the backends. I have 20,000+ per frontend deferred for delivery at the time of this e-mail. Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_cyrusdb[4672]: DBERROR db4: PANIC: Cannot allocate memory Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_cyrusdb[4672]: DBERROR: critical database situation Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_mboxlist[4673]: DBERROR db4: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_mboxlist[4673]: DBERROR: critical database situation Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_cyrusdb[4674]: DBERROR db4: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery Nov 19 16:30:26 mumailstore01 ctl_cyrusdb[4674]: DBERROR: critical database situation I tried the following directions for recovery. http://asg.web.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.info-cyrus&searchterm=skiplist&msg=32337. I made backup copies of all files deleted, renaming them $filename.corrupt. I did this on each server, recovered on the backends, and let it push the updates to the mupdate server. Manually recovered mailboxes.db on the frontends, as they did not seem to be getting updated. If I am going about this wrong, please someone point me in the right direction for documentation on murder disaster recovery. The following, while somewhat helpful, does not go into a great amount of detail: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/imapd/install-murder.html. So at this point my user agent says Unknown/Invalid partition. The partitions are correctly defined on the backend mail stores. A 'ctl_mboxlist -d' shows correct partitions, no matter which local mailboxes.db I attempt to dump. Furthermore, LMTP is still not delivering to the backends during this outage. Any helpful tips or pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, -- Eric G.

You should be able just to bump up the maxchild setting for the relevant service(s) in cyrus.conf We regularly run with maxchild=500 or more for both imap and imaps on non-exotic x86_64 hardware. I doubt you need anything more complex for only 100 users.

Planning for load balancing
Hello, I'm currently running Apple's Mac OS X Server as mail server for about 100 users. The current setup has problem keeping up with all those users, since cyrus is limited to 300 sessions. The mail client in use opens 4 sockets per account, so there are quite often time-outs or password errors during office time. Now I want to look into solving this issue, without investing in new hardware. I can run VMware, with 2 or 3 more virtual Mac OS X Servers. Would the cyrus murder function help me here? Can anyone advice what could help? Best, Jar.

Outlook is broken, it sends new mails with existing message-id under certain circumstances (for example when resending an already sent mail to other receivers). Microsoft has fixed this - in their MTA on exchange! No joke, when sending mail from Outlook to Exchange via SMTP the Exchange server will always regenerate a uniq message-id. I don't have a fix, only an explanation.

not arriving emails, duplicate suppression, message-id
Dear list, Today I got a support ticket claiming that some mail was not arriving in a persons mailbox. Sure enough when I went trough all our postfix and cyrus logs I could see that the email was certainly delivered to our mail store. It was the duplicate delivery that eliminated duplicate message. When I grepped in the mailbox after that message id I could find an other totally different message with the same id. The only thing that both message had in common was that they were both created with Microsoft Outlook 12 and 11. I thought that the message-id should be unique. Has any body seen this before? I couldn't find any info on the net how it is generated by Outlook. Maybe it is a setting that can be changed?
