Re: Vacation

This does bring up an important point... we had to disable duplicate
suppression on our server because it was just causing too much contention.
When every single mail message being delivered has to check against the
database, it is a problem... especially in a cluster where multiple
servers are running in ACTIVE mode (there *are* disadvantages to the
whole cluster idea as well, even though I love running that way!).

It most certainly broke vacation support, and I had to hack the code so
that we could actually run with duplicate suppression disabled but still
allow vacation messages to dip into the database normally...

Why can't vacation messages, or better yet, sieve in general (since there
might be a use for something mroe than vacation messages down the road?),
get its own database and not tie it in so much to duplicate suppression?

Vacation does work with duplicatesuppression disabled, I have duplicate

vacation responder for one of my users.

Hope this helps.

Side note: I disabled duplicate suppression when I initially setup my
cyrus mail server because I had to copy mail from the old server a
couple of times, and cyrus would 'suppress' the second copies, I just
haven't gotten around to testing and turning it back on.

I'm not sure vacation works with duplicatesuppression disabled because it
want's to trck which person it already has sent a vacation message. And
when you test make sure you understand that Cyrus will send a vacation
message to a recipient only once in a period of time. That usually
confuses peoples testing vacation.
