How to deliver mails in the stage directory after a crash ?

[Pierre POMES]

Hi,

Thanks for the quick answer... Unfortunatly, my MTA did not retry any 
deliverey, but perharps it is due to a wrong design :
1) I am a using the default sendmail config file shipped with Redhat, 
without defining a cyrus mailer, since I want to continue to popultate 
other mailboxes than mine, in the standard unix mailbox format.
2)  For my personnal tests with Cyrus, in my home, I defined a 
.procmailrc file, which keeps a local copy in /var/spool/mail, and 
deliver mail in my cyrus folder using cyrdeliver.

I think this setup is not good and can explain why the recover has not 
been done : sendmail should deliver directly with cyrdeliver, without 
using procmail. May you confirm this ?

It would be probably easier to use another mail server to do my own tests...

Thanks for your help,
Pierre
