Hi everybody,
Do the old 2.2.x flags mean the same thing in 2.3.7? I'm trying to give
a user maximum on a mailbox except for mailbox deletion. I thought
"lrswipte" would do the trick but if I sam the box like that it also
acquires "d" which used to mean "allow for delete of both messages and

Hi everybody,
On a Cyrus 2.3.7 running on RHEL5 I'm attempting to import an existing IMAP
store by simply copying the old store. Since the user.seen are both
"skiplist" I thought I'd keep them so:
1. Copy the messages (but not cyrus.index/cache/header)
2. update mboxlist (export, edit, import)

Hi,
No, the seenstate is the last of my concerns now as multiple runs of

As much as I hate it time has come to upgrade my very well behaved Cyrus

It's written in the manuals that by creating a folder under

I've seen Outlook fetching headers for like 100 new messages (from a 2000
messages box) in a matter of seconds on Monday morning fresh start; and it
did it on 2 years old WS hardware plus 3 years old server hardware. But

It looks like; but then imagine me asking this question on an Outlook

One user has more than 20.000 messages in Inbox. And he's an Outlook user.
And one normally does not tell the CEO what to do. So; It used to be that

headers in Outlook; but ever since the upgrade from 2.2.8 to 2.2

Which is the proper
way to list the flags that a given Cyrus instance knows about? Other than

It doesn't seem like Cyrus related but a MTA one.
Anyway the question is (I think): do you have ONE Joe with ONE IMAP box and
he should be able to receive mail on TWO domains? Or what you really have is
TWO Joe(s) in TWO different domains but so it happens that they "live" on
the same IMAP box?

Hi everybody,
I have to move a Cyrus IMAP store from 2.2.8 running on RedHat EL 3.0 to
2.2.12 running on RedHat EL 4.0.
The proper way to do it would be to use imapcopy, I know. But still...
is simply copying /var/spool/imap to be considered? o:-) Or is it
totally out of the question?
