There are no long lived links in our 'stage.' subdirs. % !! ls -l /cyr[1-9]/stage./* No match % We do re-use pop3 and imap server processes, though. (-U 10 parameter on pop3d and imapd entries in /etc/cyrus.conf) We also observe writes to the 'stage.' subdirs by imapd processes but this is to be expected, isn't it ?
