Re: Groups
The Cyrus server runs as group defined in the configure procedure. The use of a different kind of authentication doesn't affect this, so all the users are assigned to the Cyrus' master process. Of course, if I understood well how it works! :) Bye [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I asked that question but still didn't get an answer: I'm using 'saslauthd -a pam' for IMAP authentication (pam_pgsql actually) and compiled cyrus-imapd22 --with-auth=unix Should I still use /etc/groups for users group membership (to set access mailbox permissions) or maybe there is a way to use database for that?

Bare newlines
I was attempting to move an email message from a local account onto an IMAP directory located on Cyrus. The client I am using is Netscape Mail and usually it gives me no problems. This time, I am not able to move the message because the client gives the following error: Unable to perform operation. Message contains bare newlines. The message has an attached PDF file (2Mb size) and a signature with image integrated. Any idea of what can be my problem?
