Cyrus::IMAP::Admin

Three questions about Cyrus::IMAP::Admin: I am using Cyrus::IMAP::Admin for a script to archive mailboxes. It should rename to .Archives.. 1). How does one list mailboxes which _don't_ contain ".Archives."? It's one thing to list those that _do_: my @mailboxes = $connection->list "*.Archi

Thank you for the suggestion, but I think "autocreateinboxfolders" takes as an argument a static list of sub-mailboxes to create, upon the auto-creation of an INBOX. So it doesn't enable the dynamic creation of an arbitrary mailbox, based on a delivery request. Please correct me if I'm wrong. T

When I tried this patch a month or so ago, it would create INBOXs, but not other mailboxes. For instance, I tried posting a message to a nonexistent mailbox, INBOX.new-mailbox; it ended up in INBOX. Possibly I misused the patch, and possibly it now does what it didn't before. I would be glad to

It is essential to me to create the mailboxes for which incoming messages are intended when they don't exist. To this end, I am writing a patch. The patch is currently *very* neanderthal - but it kind of works. Unfortunately, there are problems with the mailboxes it creates. I can see them, bu

"localonly" Mailbox?

2004-05-16 Thread ms419
Sorry for this disengaging question, but what is meant by a "localonly" mailbox? It is an option in some function calls (eg. mboxlist_createmailbox) but I can't find a description of its meaning, either in the source or through google. Thanks very much, Jack --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.

Thanks - point taken. After consideration, however, I don't clearly understand the increased vulnerability. Calling "mboxlist_createmailbox" from "lmtpd" takes an "auth_state", which I presume must have authority to create the specified mailbox. For an attacker to flood the system with new mai

The "[cyr]deliver" manpage explains that if delivery is attempted to a mailbox, "user.userid.mailbox", and "... the ACL on any such mailbox does not grant the sender the "p" right ... then delivers to the INBOX for the userid, regardless of the ACL on the INBOX." If delivery is attempted to

In one area I have had trouble using Cyrus IMAPd: Delivery. After considerable effort - and help from others - I believe I've arrived at the fundamental problem: I wish for users to be able to filter mail using arbitrary user level programs, but I don't wish for users to be able to deliver mail

Automatically Rename Mailboxes

2004-04-18 Thread ms419
I would like to periodically automatically rename mailboxes. The size of some mailboxes can quickly grow out of hand. Say, once a month, I'd like "INBOX.busy-list" moved to "INBOX.busy-list.20040418" - for instance. I thought first of a cron job, calling "cyradm", but this is the limit of my v
