Hi all,
I'm using since 2 years a few Debian mail servers, now running Cyrus 2.1.18, both with imapd and pop3d activated. I have perdition as proxy for mapping [EMAIL PROTECTED] logins to the format they're stocked into Cyrus, nothing more. I've got a major problem since 1 month now; sometimes POP3 users cannot retrieve their mail, but they could see it in our Webmail or with IMAP. This happens very randomly at some users. Looking deeper at it, it seems that the content of some messages make the pop3d process to hang, and keep the mailbox locked; to unlock it I have to kill the POP3 process, delete the mail with IMAP and expunge the mailbox. I've fsck'ed the whole server and found nothing; my max list of open files isn't reached, moreover I've recompiled a kernel with an increased value, disabled APOP and TLS stuff, searched the Cyrus archives for similar matters but found nothing. Of course I have no problem with IMAP, but I will still have users using POP and complaining about mailboxes being blocked, without knowing exactly why. Does someone have an idea? or debug methods I can use (except checking logs in $cyrushome/log/$myuser) TIA -- Alexandre BOULANGER <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
