Re: strange message in the cyrus log

Hi! deliver.db is just used to suppress duplicate delivery and for suppressing sieve vacation mails coming more often that configured ("days" setting). So I'd suggest to stop cyrus and just delete deliver.db (and deliver.db.NEW if existing) and start cyrus again. Best, Daniel On 06.12.2006 19:1

Hmmm, well, a non existent mailbox is no temprary failure, it's very permanent. okay, in this case it's a false error, but to make another error to circumvent that is not a smooth solution. Perhaps you might want to set "soft_bounce = yes" in postfix' main.cf until you have found the error. See: h

Hi! I don't seem to see lmtp here at all. Your MTA seems to reject these mails on SMTP layer. Most probably your MTA can not know which mailboxes cyrus has and that's why it rejects all mails, because local users are no system user, but by using cyrus, they are pure virtual. So the mails don't hi
