I think this is a common problem of linking with a version of db that doesn't work correctly. I built mine from RPM on RHL 7.2, and the spec file originally has a line that forced it to use db 3.1: perl -pi -e "s#db-3#db-3.1#" configure configure.in After commenting it out and rebuilding, the problem went away. I don't know what version of db ships with Mandrake; perhaps you should run 'ldd /usr/cyrus/sbin/imapd' and see what version it's linking with? Wil -- W.
