Hi, > 1. Why are you doing this? What do you hope to achieve? It all started with the intention to migrate Cyrus from one server to another. Old server is an Ubuntu with Cyrus 2.5~dev2015021301, the new one is a CentOS with Cyrus 2.5.8. For the data migration I just rsynced /var/lib/imap and /var/spool/imap and then the missbehaviour started like described. So I started to reproduce how this happens, wich lead to my initial question. In the meantime I tried to just copy over mailboxes.db, annotations.db, domain/ and sieve/ which seems to do the job. I just have to check now if everything is copied over or if I missed something. > 2. Possibly kolab's Cyrus configuration stores files in other paths (tmpfs, data dirs) which are Berkeley dbs and don't expect their environment to be trashed under them. Kolab's Cyrus configuration is very straight forward without saving stuff on different places: configdirectory: /var/lib/imap partition-default: /var/spool/imap sievedir: /var/lib/imap/sieve unixhierarchysep: 1 virtdomains: userid annotation_definitions: /etc/imapd.annotations.conf sieve_extensions: fileinto reject envelope body vacation imapflags notify include regex subaddress relational copy date index allowallsubscribe: 0 allowusermoves: 1 altnamespace: 1 hashimapspool: 1 anysievefolder: 1 fulldirhash: 0 sieveusehomedir: 0 sieve_allowreferrals: 0 lmtp_downcase_rcpt: 1 lmtp_fuzzy_mailbox_match: 1 username_tolower: 1 deletedprefix: DELETED delete_mode: delayed expunge_mode: delayed postuser: shared And of course some LDAP and SASL settings which are omitted here.
