[SM-USERS] Squirrelmail and cyrus. Inbox empty but mail succesfully delivered to ?home/userX/Maildir/new/

2009-11-20 Thread Martin Amarante 
Hello, my name is Martin, I was wondering if maybe you could help me solve
this problem.
I am doing a project for school, a mail server and I decided to use cyrus
and squirrelmail.
for authentication i use sasl.
I dont really know much about servers but I think there is something wrong
with my setup.
In order to create a new user i do:

su cyrus
cyradm localhost
>cm user.
>quit
exit
saslpasswd2 -c -u server1 
useradd -d /home/ -m 

and then I am able to login using squirrelmail.
The actual problem is that I can send emails and (supposely) receive them
but they never show on the inbox, If I open the Sent folder they appear
there but never in the inbox, but on the other hand the emails are actually
delivered to /home//Maildir/new/

Its like if squirrelmail doesnt know where to look for the inbox.

If you could help me, Id really appreciate it.

Thank you so much in advance.

Martin

You don't appear to have Cyrus delivery configured in your MTA.  Cyrus  
does not store mail in user home directories.

Look in the Cyrus docs for info about setting this up.

Re: [SM-USERS] Squirrelmail and cyrus. Inbox empty but mail succesfully delivered to ?home/userX/Maildir/new/

2009-11-20 Thread Martin Amarante 
Hey thanks for the quick response.
I have a setting called home_mailbox = Maildir/
in /etc/postfix/main.cf
Actually before I set that mails were stored in /var/mail/

But now even if I delete that setting in main.cf nothing changes and the
inbox is still empty.
A strange thing is that if i move mails from the Sent folder to the Inbox in
squirrelmail they actually appear in inbox, but not the new emails.

You think what you said is still the problem?

Thank you very much

Martin

Re: [SM-USERS] Squirrelmail and cyrus. Inbox empty but mail succesfully delivered to ?home/userX/Maildir/new/

2009-11-20 Thread Martin Amarante 
Sorry to bother you again.
I did something so maybe you have a better idea of whats wrong.
a created a new user "nico" just the way I detailed in the first mail ( i
can login into squirrelmail just by doing the cyradm steps and the
saslpasswd2... but if I dont add the user to the system I cant send mails.
after I created the user i logged in and send a mail to the same user (
n...@server1.example.com) and right after that I  run :

find / -amin 1 > 21.21

to see what had changed in the last minute
then I run
cat 2121 | grep nico

and this is the output:

/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Sent/1.
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Sent/cyrus.index
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Sent/cyrus.header
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Sent/cyrus.cache
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Trash/cyrus.index
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Trash/cyrus.header
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/Trash/cyrus.cache
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/cyrus.index
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/cyrus.header
/var/spool/imap/user/nico/cyrus.cache
/srv/www/htdocs/squirrelmail/data/nico.abook


I hope this helps :) and thanks again

Cyrus does not store emails in user's home. It stores them in
/var/spool/cyrus/

If all arriving emails are stored in user's home, you forgot to set cyrus as
local delivery agent.

Yes.  This is not a SquirrelMail problem.  Read your Cyrus imapd 
documentation about how to configure postfix to deliver to Cyrus.

[SM-USERS] Corrupt imap boxes cause sm to lock up

2009-11-20 Thread Edward Capriolo 
Hello all,

We are using Squirrel Mail with courier and qmail. Everything is
working well we have a fairly large setup, 800 users. On three or four
occasions now we have ran into a mailbox which causes squirrel mail
never to load. However we can pop or imap these boxes with
thuderbird/outlook etc. Our fix is usually to drag them from pop-inbox
to imap or vice versa and eventually this cleans up the corruption.

I am running squirrelmail 1.4.19.
What can I do to tune up apache/php errors to get more debugging?

Can i do anything to get SM to "try catch" some imap errors and do a
best effor display of the mailbox - bad messages?

Thank you

SquirrelMail *IS* an IMAP client.

You can read the mailing list posting guidelines *before* you post.
Information about PHP error reporting settings is found therein.
Posting guidelines were sent to you when you subscribed and are linked
at the bottom of every email that goes out on this list.

SquirrelMail will tell you if it encounters an IMAP error.  My only
guess is that the mailboxes in question are extremely large and your
web server is either too overloaded to serve them or PHP's memory is
insufficient.  There are lots of tips in the list archives for tuning
SM for large mailboxes.
