Re: deliver.db to big size.

2011-09-11 Thread Anthony Tibbs (Trinimex)
Manuel, If I'm not mistaken, "deliver.db" is used exclusively for duplicate message suppression. I can't imagine why it has grown so big (unless you are not running "ctl_deliver -E" regularly -- normally this is configured to run every 24 hours or so in /etc/cyrus.conf). Some people keep "d

Hi folks, This is, at present, only a test message. I am setting up a new box with Cyrus and Exim, but my experience has always been with Postfix. For some reason, messages from the Info-Cyrus list -- and so far, ONLY messages from the Info-Cyrus list -- are being rejected by Cyrus LMTP as

SSL certificates

Good morning, I've been running Cyrus at a couple of small sites since 2001 or so. I've run into a snag trying to setup SSL using something other than the self-signed, auto-generated certificate. The domain has a GoDaddy 2048-bit SSL certificate. From the SSL manager, one downloads a bundle

You know, I don't know if I agree with all the objections over this person's request. I actually have a similar setup where Fetchmail is used to retrieve messages from a remote mailbox for injection into a Cyrus setup, primarily because of quota requirements on the far end. Yes, modern MUA's

Hi everyone, I'm running Cyrus 2.3.14 on a VPS (Gentoo), and have been for a number of years now. All was well until last night when performance went down the tubes and I started seeing high I/O wait times. I'm pretty sure this is a problem on the hosting end, but in trying to diagnose the

This might seem like a really dumb question, but why can't you just monitor the log file for Delivered: lines and parse those (as they appear) to do the 'push'ing? I have a script that monitors this and gives me the datestamp, user/folder, and Message-ID domain on a running basis. Or am I

Hi Bob, Perhaps I am missing something here, but with my Postfix setup (which is based on two instances of Postfix + amavisd-new + Cyrus), messages are checked against a user database at the outer postfix, and rejected during the SMTP connection for invalid recipients, before lmtp/etc. even see

Outlook Express and IMAP connections - thousands of them?

Hi everyone, I've been using Outlook Express with Cyrus now for several years (since 2002), have set it up on many different computers, and have never run into this before. I have one user who is also using OE, and their OE is doing something very strange - it's disconnecting and reconnecting

IMAP/POP traffic accounting

I believe there was some mention of this in the past, but I'm wondering whether there are any known efforts to implement network traffic accounting in the later versions of Cyrus, or if this is still something that hasn't been dealt with. I am pondering possibly tackling this, but I'm not reall

This isn't thoroughly tested or anything, but you could use something like the following to generate a "command list" to be fed to cyradm, no? It doesn't check for things like the user already having a Spam mailboox, but... that wouldn't be hard to add. Is "-c" appropriate to prevent mailbox

Check out quotawarn: and quotawarnkb: in man imapd.conf. They result in IMAP ALERT messages being generated. Note that these alerts are sent on SELECT, and it has been claimed that Outlook SELECTs a lot, making it unusable. I have not verified this. Indeed, this can be a problem if you have a la

Hello George, to fetch mail from a server you can use fetchmail and hand that mail to cyrus. I am not sure if you can hand it directly to cyrus or pass it first to an MTA like postfix which delivers email to cyrus. Ulf Assuming you have no "intermediary" processing via Postfix that you actually
