Help, > please? Yes, it works fine. But it does lock the mailbox during reconstruct. If the mailbox is open reconstruct will 'hang' until the mailbox becomes available. If reconstruct is running the client will 'hang' until reconstruction completes. I'm not certain what happens to delivery to the mailbox - I've always *assumed* it is a transient error and delivery gets reattempted by the MTA. ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
