Missing sieve folder
Hi, we moved from an old cyrus system to a newer one (2.14.19) ~18 months ago. The system runs very smooth. However I noticed a couple of problems: 1) We are creating a user using a script. The script is executing on the mail system some commands to create the mailboxes and the aliases. I found one case where 2 mailboxes where created "user.username" and "user.Username". The folders for "Username" where missing, so it gave some IOERROR. Any idea how this can happen (username is converted to lower case BEFORE the script on the mail system is executed) ? 2)For a large number of people the sieve folders are either empty or not existing!

Problem after update (deliver not working anymore)
Hi, I updated our cyrus server (SuSE SLES 12) to the latest release. First tests did not show any problem. But now I noticed the following: Oct 24 11:48:44 mail postfix/local[3438]: 0F6604A6F0: to=<x...@bgc-jena.mpg.de>, relay=local, delay=0.03, delays=0.01/0/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: Permission denied 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_ We are using for some shared mailfolders /etc/aliases with NAME: ""|/usr/bin/formail -I \"From \" |/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/deliver -e -a cyrus -m NAME" It worked without any problems before. Normal mail (to users) are working perfectly ... I tried to change the permission of /var/lib/imap/socket/lmp without any success. Any idea ? -- Bye, Peer Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie Dr. Peer-Joachim Koch Hans-Knöll Str.10Telefon: ++49 3641 57-6705 D-07745 Jena Telefax: ++49 3641 57-7705 smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
Re: Thunderbird and "Login to server failed".
Yes, seems to work. (-n 5 -> -n 50 - no problems any more). Has anybody tried to use -c -t (c = caching, t=timeout for cache). What about users changing the password Bye, Peer On 05.10.2017 16:21, Michael Sofka wrote: This was one of the symptoms of slow authentication that we saw before I increased the saslauthd threads.

Re: Thunderbird and "Login to server failed".
Hi, since we upgraded our installation to 2.4.18-142 (SuSE SLES) we see the same behavior. We are using the same settings as before. Fast deleting (2 msg per second) of messages shows "login failed". I haven't checked this out. Any idea how to analyses this ? Bye, Peer On 04.10.2017 15:26, Simon Matter wrote: Hi, I'm using cyrus-imapd (now 2.4.x) and Thunderbird.

Interesting, I've never seen this problem over the years. Are there firewall rules active on the cyrus-imapd host? Probably limiting connection rate?

Re: Mailbox administration in cyrus
Hi,
I have admin (cyrus) rights on the mailbox.
The solution in this case is a
dm user.USERNAME.*
this seems to remove everything from user USERNAME without the risk
deleting some similar named user (...USERNAME* can cause some trouble).
Thanks, Peer

Hi,

I did not find any info about something like
dm -r user.OLDUSER
in cyradm
dm user.OLDUSER
should delete the user (all mailboxes and sievscripts), at least
since cyrus 2.3
which version of cyrus are you using?
we are using cyrus 2.4.18 (SLES 12 SP2)
removing every folder within OLDUSER and OLDUSER as well.
No, not at our system. I did
dm user.TESTUSER # all users have SPAM,Sent,Drafts as default
mailboxes
After this command, the mailbox TESTUSER was removed, but
user.TESTUSER.{SPAM,Sent,Drafts}
exist (in cyrus and on the filesystem).
No idea, what happens if I use a wildcard ...
Does the user you logged in to cyradm with have rights to delete the
mailboxes that are not getting deleted?
Might have to do this first:
sam user.TESTUSER lrswipdca
Thanks and bye, Peer
also you can use wildcards in cyradm

Problems upgrading cyrus (2.1 -> 2.4) - what about sieve
Hi, I am preparing an update of an old mail server. The mailboxes and mails are no the problem. This seems to be easy. But how can I transfer the sieve scripts ? However I can write a script using sieve shell and import all ~100 scripts for the users, but maybe there is a more simpler solution ? A second sieve question : A script is running at night syncing the mailboxes, seen and subscribe files (between old an new server). Yesterday I imported my own sieve script on the new server. Today (after the update at night) the sieve script was gone. Where are the information about the sieve scripts stored ? -- Bye, Peer Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie Dr. Peer-Joachim Koch Hans-Knöll Str.10Telefon: ++49 3641 57-6705 D-07745 Jena Telefax: ++49 3641 57-7705 smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
