IDLE error

[Valentin Bud]

Hi Catalin,

I have a Cyrus 2.2 instance running on Debian.

$ grep -R idled /etc/cyrus.conf
         # this is only necessary if idlemethod is set to "idled" in 
imapd.conf
         idled           cmd="idled"

The idled command is located inside the START{} block.

$ sudo ls -al /var/run/cyrus/socket
total 8
drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 4096 Nov 11 06:55 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus mail 4096 Apr  9  2013 ..
srwxrwxrwx 1 cyrus mail    0 Nov 11 06:55 idle
srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root    0 Nov 11 06:55 lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root    0 Nov 11 06:55 notify

I guess you can enable it and fix the problem. I don't think
you have to change anything in imapd.conf.

Best,
Valentin
