Migrating and upgrading
I have a Cyrus + Postfix server (about 4 years old) that I want to migrate to a new machine (running Ubuntu Hardy server edition). I got the basic functionality up and running, and created an account. Now I need to get the old messages onto the new server. I tried using imapmigrate, which indeed copied all the messages to the new machine; however, the only ones that I can see using a client are the ones in the inbox. None of the other mailboxes are visible. I don't know if the different versions of cyrus might be creating the problem. The old server is running 2.1, the new one 2.2. I tried running the cvt_cyrusdb program on the new version, but it didn't help. Thanks for any assistance you can provide. -- Sincerely, Derek Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html

It didn't occur to me that I would have to subscribe to my own folders. -- Sincerely, Derek Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
Postfix can't deliver to cyrus via lmtp
I'm migrating a cyrus + postfix server to Ubuntu Hardy. Everything else works -- old mail is migrated, I can read it, and I can send mail -- but I can't receive mail. It gets stuck in postfix, with the error "warning: connect #[x] to subsystem private/lmtp: Connection refused". I discovered that the lmtp socket in Hardy is, by default, /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp, and I set master.cf accordingly. I saw one warning that the file needs to be accessible to both the cyrus and the postfix users. The /var/run/socket directory is owned by cyrus:mail, and has permissions of 740. The lmtp file itself is owned by root:root, but has permissions of 777. (Actually, the permissions line reads "srwxrwxrwx"; I can't remember what the leading "s" means.) Postfix appears to be running as the "postfix" user. Thanks far any help you can provide.

user cyrus exists, but not found
I installed cyrus21 and sasl2 from .deb packages and created the "cyrus" user using "saslpasswd2 -c cyrus". I also uncommented the line in imapd.conf that sets user cyrus to an admin. However, when I go to run cyradm or use the test command, and I enter the password, I get the error that user cyrus was not found. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful. = Sincerely, Derek __ Do you Yahoo!? Check out the new Yahoo!
