Re: CalDav CardDav webmail client ?
A bit on the heavy side, but Nextcloud's agenda component is CalDAV and can access external CalDAV/ICS calendars. However its mail client will only access its own address book (which is CardDAV).

How to retrieve unread status from backup ?
Hi, I have done an unfortunate "mark all as read" on my mailbox, and I'm not one of those "mailbox zero" guys. So I have lost some valuable information. But I have some (old) backups. So my question is: how do I retrieve the "read/unread" status from the (not so recent) backup, and how can I reapply it to my running server (which continues to receive mails regularly) ?

I like K9Mail, but it has its share of problems. The worst for me is that it sometimes pegs the CPU to 100% for no reason, which drains the battery fast. Anyway I'd like the stock mail client to work with Cyrus. Thanks, Xav Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/

I used imapsync to upgrade cyrus (from 1.5 to 2.3), it seems like a pretty solid piece of software. At least it worked like a charm in my case.

I admit I have yet to find the ideal IMAP client, efficiency-wise. But that's another problem.

That you may find this solution not optimal isn't the question (nor really my problem, in fact), I just wanted my server to rest a bit when unused (spinning off the drives array has measurable power gains), so I wanted to be able to know when Cyrus has connected users.

Exec'ing a script from Cyrus when imapd has a client
Hi, I have a small install with cyrus-imapd 2.3.14, which reads some of its mails with fetchmail. To limit the delay in mail delivery, fetchmail awakes each minute to get mails. What I would like is let fetchmail do that only when there's a client actually reading its mails, i.e. an MUA actually connected to imapd. So, my question: how to hook a script each time a client connects/disconnects from imapd ?
