I still have some questions, though:
1. under what conditions will cyrus delete or "hide" messages from the users' (and admins) sight.... if it does it at all?
2. Ihave been running this cyrus for about 2 yrs now, and never done any maintenance; does cyrus takes care of its own? if not, what is suggested? I do backups every night, export the db to a txt files, etc. but nothing else...
Thanks, again
