However, I'm also currently grappling with a webmail performance problem. This is why I upgraded Cyrus IMAPd. I've just discovered that, compared to all my other servers, this platform is having difficulty maintaining entropy. If I run a complex find operation, I can build the entropy back up, but it quickly depletes with only a few webmail users making connections. At first, I thought it was an Apache mod_ssl issue, but the Cyrus docs mention that APOP requires a lot of entropy, as well. If anyone has any tips on maintaining entropy on a headless Linux 2.6 machine, I'd appreciate it. I've already switched the drives to different hardware, to no avail. > Also, the way the APOP challenge is written out has changed, so I might > look there. > > :wes > > On 30 Apr 2008, at 11:34, Jorey Bump wrote: >> I upgraded Cyrus IMAPd from 2.3.11 to 2.3.12p2 last night, and a user is >> now reporting that he can no longer authenticate using APOP.
