Hello.
A couple of questions. I just migrated our company over to Cyrus/postfix
from UW/sendmail and I've noticed a few little quirks that I'm not able to
find a solution to.
1.) If a pop user selects "keep messages on server" they start to see
duplicate emails. I saw that other people on the listserv have also had
the same issues, but there's not been any resolution to this issue. Q:
How come Cyrus doesn't implement the correct bahaviour, and is there any
work-around other than switching to IMAP over POP? I've got pop users
that can't access IMAP (using phones for checking email when on travel
with "leave messages on server" then suck down the emails when they arrive
back at a desktop). It's not feasable for them to move to IMAP and they
require this functionality.
2.) It seems that Cyrus is inserting headers that confuse sendmail and/or
procmail. When I'm tailing my procmail log, I see that all emails are
"From: cyrus at mail". I'm guessing that procmail is getting this from the
"Return-Path:" header that doesn't get inserted into the email with
sendmail. Q: Can I tell Cyrus to not insert this header or is there a
work-around for procmail to detect the correct From: header and not get
confused?
