Hi All,

I have a mail server setup with Cyrus Imap 2.0.16 and Postfix
snapshot-20010808 with LDAP and I use a php based webmail system. Everything
works fine, but occasionally I experience 2 serious problem.

1:
Webmail login for certain accounts get blocked. Once this happened I can use
other imap clients such as Outlook and Eudora to connect, but no webmail. So
I guess this should be due to some php c-client connection problem. And when
I check imapd.log it prints,
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13186]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13220]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13186]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13220]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13186]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX
Nov 20 04:26:34 Pirana imapd[13220]: open: user jayantha opened INBOX

and that goes non-stop. This looks like php tries to open INBOX, but fails
for some reason. Once this happens, if I login using Outlook and move all
the new emails to someother mailbox and try from webmail, it works just
fine. So my final conclusion is for some emails, php c-clients seems giving
problem. Please help me if anybody successfully overcome this problem.


2:
Sometimes email get repeated 20-30 times in user INBOX. At this time, when I
check imapd.log, it says,
Nov 20 09:59:55 Pirana master[12178]: process 20579 exited, signaled to
death by 11
Nov 20 09:59:55 Pirana master[12178]: process 20629 exited, signaled to
death by 11
Nov 20 09:59:55 Pirana master[12178]: process 20639 exited, signaled to
death by 11
Nov 20 09:59:55 Pirana master[12178]: process 20640 exited, signaled to
death by 11

and maillog  shows
Nov 20 09:59:55 Pirana postfix/pipe[20622]: 18C321CACE:

(temporary failure)

I tried both Cyrus deliver wrapper and LMTP communication, but both fail.
When I used LMTP delivery, maillog error was as below,

Oct 29 14:12:01 Pirana postfix/lmtp[3421]: 922691AEC6:

I'm not sure if problem 2 resulted by problem 1 or vice versa. But now I'm
in a big trouble bacause of those two problems. Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Thanks in advances,
