Is there any way to log/see protocol level commands for a mailbox which is not under user.* ?

2008-03-13 Thread Ciprian Marius Vizitiu
Hi listers, It's written in the manuals that by creating a folder under /var/lib/imap/log/username Cyrus will log at protocol level details for "username". Question: how can I do the same for a mailbox which is above user.* level? Of course I could enable logging for all users =:-o and then tr

Hi everyone, As much as I hate it time has come to upgrade my very well behaved Cyrus imapd so I was wondering: given the rock solid stability I have experienced with 2.2.12 is there any 2.3.x Cyrus with some close record of stability? What is your experience? I don't care about replication, I

Migrating from 2.2.8 to 2.2.12?

Hi everybody, I have to move a Cyrus IMAP store from 2.2.8 running on RedHat EL 3.0 to 2.2.12 running on RedHat EL 4.0. The proper way to do it would be to use imapcopy, I know. But still... is simply copying /var/spool/imap to be considered? o:-) Or is it totally out of the question?
