setup problem - mail doesn't seem to move?

[Carl Brewer]

Hello,

I'm setting up Cyrus-imapd 2.2.3 on a NetBSD 1.6.2
server, and am finding some odd behaviour.  This is
bound to be something I'm doing wrong!

I've got sendmail working, inbound mail comes in
just fine, but my imaps clients (I've tried
thunderbird 0.5 and outlook something) don't
seem to be able to move mail messages into the
Trash folder.  Outlook shows 'deleted' messages in
Inbox with a line through them, thunderbird doesn't show
them at all, and the mail files still exist in

/var/spool/imap/user/carl
rollcage2# ls -la
total 39

-rw-------  1 cyrus  mail   150 Mar 16 01:47 cyrus.header
-rw-------  1 cyrus  mail   616 Mar 16 11:43 cyrus.index

I've used Thunderbird to delete them all (1-9) but
they don't go away.  Copies end up in Trash, and empty
Trash empties the Trash directory, but the files are
staying in the top level dir.

I created my user accounts as follows :

cyradm --user cyrus localhost
localhost> cm user/carl
localhost> quit

My authentication all seems to work fine, as does the SSL link
for imaps.

Here's my imapd.conf and cyrus.conf files, can anyone
see what I've done wrong?


cyrus.conf :

# standard standalone server implementation

START {
   # do not delete this entry!
   recover       cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r"

   # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE
#  idled                cmd="idled"
}

# UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/imap/socket
SERVICES {

   # this is only necessary if using notifications
#  notify       cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/imap/socket/notify" 
proto="udp" prefo
rk=1
}

EVENTS {
   # this is required
   checkpoint    cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30

   # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression,
   # Sieve or NNTP
   delprune      cmd="cyr_expire -E 3" at=0400

   # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions
   tlsprune      cmd="tls_prune" at=0400
}



imapd.conf :

# $NetBSD: imapd.conf,v 1.1.1.1 2004/01/18 12:42:12 recht Exp $

All the folder permissions seem ok, I followed the instructions on
the Install notes faithfully.


thanks for any help anyone can provide!
