The Cyrus team is proud to announce the immediate availability of the
first release candidate from the Cyrus IMAP 3.0 series: 3.0.0-rc1.

As a release candidate, it is considered near-stable for production
usage.   Interfaces, APIs, features, etc are not likely to change
between now and the full release.

If you plan to upgrade to 3.0, we recommend starting to test your
upgrade process now.  Feedback and bug reports will be greatly
appreciated!


Hi everyone. We started the process of checking our Cyrus configs in preparation for testing our dev/beta Debian Cyrus install (2.5.10-3) and ran into an issue right away.

I believe the instruction line at this URL:

http://www.cyrusimap.org/dev/imap/download/upgrade.html#copy-config-files-and-update

for lint checking the cyrus & imapd configs have the file types backwards. The instruction shows:

cyr_info conf-lint -C <path to cyrus.conf> -M <path to imapd.conf>

But according to the man page the command should look like this:

cyr_info [ -C alt imapd.conf ] [ -M alt cyrus.conf ] command

And indeed, if you run the command as shown on the web page you get an error caused by the first line of the START section.

/usr/lib/cyrus/bin/cyr_info conf-lint -C /etc/cyrus.conf -M /etc/imapd.conf
fatal error: invalid option name on line 6 of configuration file /etc/cyrus.conf

If I run it as the man page suggests, the output looks a little more reasonable. (and I have a little bit of work to do :-)

Hope this helps.
