Hi Frank.
What I think Timo is trying to say is... The issue is most likely that the system has "overflowed" the Message uid's. This means that the message id (a number) has grown too large to fit within the size allocated for it in v 0.99. This can happen in an older system that has been in use for a long time. Message UIDL's are handled differently in the current RC's, and Upgrading should fix it.
Upgrading isn't terribly difficult. The only catch is that in the new config file, you have to tell it what format you want to use for the UIDLs. The documentation makes a suggestion,
pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv and it works for us.Hope that helps. Is that the uidl format from a stock .99 era setup?
Where can you look to make sure before an upgrade?
I am facing an upgrade from .99 in CentOS 4 to 1.0 when it is released and I want to make sure. Is it in the actual mbox, or in the indexes?
I have to say, that even 0.99 just blows away wuimap. I can't wait to upgrade.
