I did noticed though 7.04, 7.10, 8.04 are all using 2.2.13 but different patches. 7.10 uses the 2.2.13-11 while 8.10 uses the 2.2.13-13. I am thinking of trying 8.10 to see if it works.. if not.. sadly I am wondering if we will have to move the system over to a full Debian stable/testing? I would not be happy to build a Debian testing system to find out we have the same issue. Would this be a Ubuntu related issue with their patches? Has anyone else have had the same issue without using Ubuntu? -Adam ---- 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
