reconstruct: can't initialize mboxlist environment

2003-12-29 Thread Leland Stanford
My Cyrus install died today, and when I try to run reconstruct, I get the above message. I can't find any reference to this message in the documentation. Can anyone help me out? Cyrus won't run until I fix the db, and when I try to fix the db I get that message. Aarghh! Thanks in advance…

This isn't entirely specific to Cyrus but I figured I'd ask here anyway as it is related to my recent Cyrus install... I've setup Cyrus with virtual domain support. I've configured sendmail 8.12.10 on our server to deliver local mail to cyrus by doing this in sendmail.mc: MAILER(local)dnl MAIL

I seem to have web-cyradm working.    I was using webmin and virutalmin to set up my virutal domains, and was curious if: 1)  there is a way to integrate the cyrus stuff with the virutalmin. They seem to be completely independent. Currently if I set up a new domain:  'foo.com' I then have

Jessica, I suspect that you must configure squirrelmail to use INBOX as the 'root' of your folder creation. I suspect its trying to make folders called .foldername when it should be INBOX.foldername This could be why the ones you have made programatically do not show up either. FYI the subscr
