Howdy All I've recently upgraded from Cyrus-Imap 2.0.9 to 2.0.12. I also upgraded to to Berkely DB 3.2.9 from 2.3.7 and Glibc 2.2.2 from 2.2.1. Needless to say, I had to recompile Cyrus-Sasl (using 1.5.24) and Cyrus-IMSP (using 1.6a3). Unfortunately, due to space constraints on that drive and, having disengaged the brain at that point, I blew away my old sources without noting what version I was at for sasl and imsp. Anyway, the problem I'm having right now is that my access to imap/imsp has degraded appreciably since the upgrades. Now, logging in to my various mailboxes on my server takes upwards of a minute sometimes where it used to only take about 30 seconds from start to finish. I've notice pauses of up to 15 to 20 seconds in access times, and I believe the issue lies with the imsp server, although I can't tell for sure from everything I've tried so far. My access speeds to the imap boxes, when imsp is out of the equation are acceptably fast, at least equaling what I was experiencing before the upgrade. I attempted to downgrade imsp to 1.6a2, but got 'Bad file descriptor' errors when I did so. Has anyone experienced similar issues or possibly have some ideas on how I migth trouble shoot this issue? I'm at a loss, and can live with the access speeds from my Mulberry client, but accessing it through my silkymail install is now very painful, and I have a couple of users who can only access their mail this way. Any suggestions at all would be welcome. Thanks in advance, Will ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- William K.
