Hi - I'm about to try installing the latest version of Cyrus on Redhat
6, and wanted to get any feedback from anyone, about any problems that I
might run into.
The reason I'm dgo this, is that we've recently been experiencing a
problem with the older supplied version of cyrus that comes with
redhat. Occasionally, a user's account will get "stuck". It appears it
might involve the user's ".seen" file, as attempts to access the user's
account gets stuck in the code that tries to open that file. The
problem might have not be "new", but we're only seeing it now, because
of much heavier usage of the mail server.
I don't have the time right now to fully debug the problem, so I figured
it might be easier to first simply install the latest version. I have
compiled it on a test redhat 6 server, and it seems to work fine. I'll
be porting to our real server tonight, but I wonder if there are any
"gotchas", that I might run into, that won't be noticable until it
actually starts to heavy use.
Thanks. - Mark
