Thank you, I will have a look through this. Are there any caveats I need to be aware off? I am planning on taking notes of all the changes and actions I take and post them back to the list. (This thread is here to keep a record as well :) ) Lets start with the basic info about my installation: Distribution: Gentoo Cyrus version: 2.3.14-r3 (The "-r3" is, afaik, Gentoo-specific) I don't appear to have these files: ** diff -u /usr/lib/cyrus/cyrus-db-types.active \ /usr/lib/cyrus/cyrus-db-types.txt ** Are these Debian specific? Or is there something missing from my installation? Or do these only exist when Cyrus is not running? (Which I would find strange) And from what I gather, the instructions refer back to the contents of these files. Is there a way to get these files created?
