Yes and /var/spool/imap, if you're wanting to know about performing a full backup. If so, then visit http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki/bin/view/Cyrus/Backup (Although, there isn't actually information about /restoring/ the backup.) > Just another question ;-) > Working with ACLs I was able to assign rights to Cyrus users on different > mailboxes.

Yes, sometimes. Evolution can be odd strange sometimes with shared folders. Cyrus 2.2 used to work with older versions of Evolution, but I can't get it to work with the latest Evo 2.6.3, although it seems to work with Cyrus 2.3.

Just another question ;-) Working with ACLs I was able to assign rights to Cyrus users on different mailboxes. Now I try to explain with an example. Let's say I have a mailbox user.A and a mailbox user.B and that user A can access (read) user.B. Is it possible to connect Cyrus from Evolution as user A and access, with that connection, also user.B? Thank all of you very much!!! Stefano C.

You have to expunge them after deleting them. CTRL-E or Folder->Expunge.

This will only rebuild the mailbox database. You also need to back up all the files in the cyrus directories.

Pointer to alternate solution are welcome. You mean pop3proxyd? That said, be sure you're using the murder for the right reasons. If you don't need a uniform mailbox namespace, you might want to consider perdition (and a similar POP proxy) instead of the Aggregator. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
