Having trouble getting single instance message store to work.

 

Running debian jessie with cyrus imap 2.4.17+caldav~beta10-18 postfix 2.11.3-1.

Am following instructions in:

https://cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-imapd/2.4.17/install-configure.php

 

master.cf has:

lmtp unix - - n - - lmtp

 

main.cf has:

mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp

local_destination_recipient_limit = 200

local_destination_concurrency_limit = 5

 

imap.conf has

singleinstancestore: 1

lmtpsocket: /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp

 

 

Delivery works but each is an independent file.

 

Any suggestions?

John,
At the risk of sounding insulting, have you checked the link count (via 'ls -l') on these duplicate copies?  For example, here I have part of my Inbox:

-rw-------  1 cyrus cyrus     5821 2013-07-09 12:26 17201.
-rw-------  6 cyrus cyrus    36816 2013-07-09 14:22 17202.
-rw-------  1 cyrus cyrus    17305 2013-07-09 14:43 17203.
-rw-------  3 cyrus cyrus    44952 2013-07-09 14:53 17204.
-rw-------  3 cyrus cyrus    44942 2013-07-09 14:56 17205.
-rw-------  1 cyrus cyrus     1395 2013-07-09 15:00 17206.

The 2nd, 4th & 5th messages have multiple hard-links (second column), which is how singleinstancestore does its thing.
