Since I saw there were changes in the default database formats and the addition of run-time database format directives, I added those directives to
none of which should matter here.
Based on the notes in the changelog and other documentation, I expected that the server would upgrade the mailbox format on the fly. I am now wondering if I need to "reconstruct" all the mailboxes using the new utility prior to running the new server. If so, will I lose message flags?
it should auto-upgrade. we don't keep installations of old versions around to do testing on for each version, though, so it's conceivable a bug slipped in somewhere. knowing which place IMAP_MAILBOX_BADFORMAT is coming from would be helpful, and output from "strace"ing the imapd may shed some light on it. you should be able to use imtest to connect, attach strace, then SELECT by hand and get the error, detach and have an strace session logged.
Finally, I am having to post this message from my GMail account because I was not able to re-subscribe to the list from my usual address (michael_moore (AT@) csnw.com) as I never get any response from the listserv from any address attached to the csnw.com server and subscribing from the web-based list management never results in mail to my csnw.com account or in my address being added to the list as seen in the web interface. I haven't gotten any response from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" which is listed as the list problem contact on the website. It's not a spam filter problem on our end as I have looked for the message on both sides of our filter. If you can help with the problem or know a better contact, I would love to be subscribed from my usual account.
well, andrew2-webmaster doesn't own the list server itself, but i suspect if i send you on the real path it will just come back to me anyhow. i'd be mucch happier if we swapped in mailman for majordomo, but probably that will happen soon enough anyway.
I just added you by hand. I have no idea what's going on, we have other recent subscribers, so the service is not generically broken.
