I have been having a few problems as of late. First, lost emails. Well they aren't really lost, i have located them in the imap mail store under the users name, kind of hidden i guess you would say. not sure why that is. This happens randomly with incoming emails, maybe one out of a couple thousand. My fix to this was to reconstruct the user box. sudo -u cyrus /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/reconstruct r user/(short name) while this works, it seems to corrupt the inbox, only the inbox all other folders stay intack. the error i receive after the reconstruct is Mailbox does not exist, i receive this from Squirrel Mail and thunderbird. The only way i have found to fix this is to do a total reconstruct. mv /var/imap /var/imap.old mkdir /var/imap /usr/bin/cyrus/tools/mkimap chown -R cyrus:mail /var/imap sudo -u cyrus /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/reconstruct -i and of course this fixes the problem of the mail box does not exist but i always seems to lose some emails in the process, usually one or two users at random You can probably see a very bad cycle here. I have chased this for a couple of weeks now and have tried to solve on my own, i have search the internet and found a couple of threads on stuff close to this but nothing that i could use as a fix. History I have recently installed spamassassin for SPAM control and now use procmail for the relay for spamassassin. Perhaps procmail is the culprit for the lost emails in the first place, but i would like to be able to reconstruct my boxes with out losing mail(hidden email) or having the error that the mailbox does not exist. mac os x server 10.3.9 is the OS any more info you need please let me know Thank You in advance for any helpl Derrick ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
