Hi, since a few days do I see chk_cyrus messages on one single subfolder "sent_mail" (440 MB) of a user's mailbox in my mail.err each morning at the same time (6:30am): ------------------ Sep 15 06:31:16 grady cyrus/chk_cyrus[25398]: user.userxyz.sent_mail uid 2 found - adding [...] Sep 15 06:31:50 grady cyrus/chk_cyrus[25398]: user.userxyz.sent_mail uid 1768 found - adding ------------------ The reported UIDs on the folder differ from day to day, but I always do see about 900 log entries each morning. Looking with an imap client into this userxyz.sent_mail subfolder all messages except of one message seem to be deleted by the user. System here is cyrus 2.4.12 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with master and slave; I've set delete_mode and expunge_mode to delayed, to be able to restored deleted messages and folders (expire is 7 days). The strange thing is now that on the replica/slave side the folder userxyz.sent_mail is empty inside the filesystem in /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/user/userxyz/sent_mail/ (exepect this single message) and the whole content of the send_mail folder has moved to /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/DELETED/user/userxyz/sent_mail/54101FA9/. BUT on the primary side I still do see 1774 messages in the filesystem userxyz.sent_mail and the same number of messages in the DELETE folder unter /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/DELETED/user/userxyz/sent_mail/54101FA9/. I don't understand that. If I believe in the timestamp of the folder /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/DELETED/user/userxyz/sent_mail/ on primary and slave it was created at Sep. 10th. The chk_cyrus messages started later at Sep. 13th. Second strange thing: su - cyrus -c "/usr/sbin/unexpunge -l user.userxyz.sent_mail" on the master doesn't show any deleted UIDs. If I check for hardlinks I do see three UIDs hardlinked to the same inode #10897103: # ls -li /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/user/userxyz/sent_mail/1766. 10897103 -rw------- 3 cyrus mail 5520 Sep 9 23:08 /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/user/userxyz/sent_mail/1766. #ls -li /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/user/userxyz/Gesendete\ Elemente/1807. 10897103 -rw------- 3 cyrus mail 5520 Sep 9 23:08 /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/user/userxyz/Gesendete Elemente/1807. # ls -li /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/DELETED/user/userxyz/sent_mail/54101FA9/1766. 10897103 -rw------- 3 cyrus mail 5520 Sep 9 23:08 /var/spool/cyrus/mail/u/DELETED/user/userxyz/sent_mail/54101FA9/1766. I don't know what the user did exactly, but I think he moved/copied the content from the "sent_mail" subfolder to another subfolder "Gesendete Elemente", to merge different Sent folders created by different imap clients. After that he deleted the mails inside the original "sent_mail". No problem at all, but what's the plan to get rid of the chk_cyrus messages? They do make me nervous. A "reconstruct -r user.userxyz.sent_mail" might restore deleted mails which might confuse the user? Deleting sent_mail subfolder via an imap client again to moved the whole sent_mail folder to DELETED and create an empty new one? Andy ideas?
