Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: cyrus-common-2.2
the readme states:
o Cyrus IMAPd should be fed mail through LMTP. If at all possible, use
the Unix socket for that -- it automatically authenticates as user
postman and that will help wonders. cyrdeliver can also be used to
inject mail, but it will simply open an LMTP socket to cyrus and
deliver through that -- this is much slower than using LMTP directly.
The UNIX socket is in /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp. Use dpkg-statoverride
if you need to change the permissions of the socket directory.
I have done this multiple times today and every tim I used dpkg-
statoverride to change the permissions they were changed back as soon as
cyrus was restarted using the init.d script.
This seems to matter becuase Postfix doesn't want to deliver to that socket.
In fact it says in the logs:
postfix/lmtp[11805]: 242EB1110138: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, orig_to=<archive>,
relay=none, delay=5052, status=deferred (connect to
/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp[/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp]: No such file or
directory)
this is what I have before i restart cyrus:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/# ls -l /var/run/cyrus/socket/
total 0
srwxrwx--- 1 cyrus mail 0 2006-08-09 11:56 lmtp
and this is what i get after restarting it:
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2006-08-09 15:59 lmtp
I believe this is a bug can someone investigate please?
