Hi,
can anyone tell me how to empty the duplicates database ? I found out that cyr_expire -E days allows to erase duplicates older than days days.
But this doesn't work with days equal to 0. Is there some other trick to empty the duplicates database?
Using days=0 will leave all entries. The closest you can get to with cyr_expire is days=1. If you truely want to empty deliver.db, then stop the server, checkpoint (and possibly recover) the BDB environment and then remove deliver.db.
This works fine ,thanks. Although I do have one question left. The *ctl_cyrusdb allows *to checkpint with the -c flag and to recover with the -r option. From what I understand checkpointing is needed to have a good backup if something goes wrong. And the recover restores all database files from the latest checkpoint. But what happens with changes or new mail received between the last checkpoint and failure point?
kind regards, Pieter * *
