Quoting sophana sophana@zizi.ath.cx:
Ok thanks. I did bring the source with apt-get source cyrus-imapd Then I rebuilt the rpmsource with rpmbuild -ba --define='IDLED 1' --define='SEEN_DB skiplist' cyrus-imapd.spec
Now Idled works just fine. My emails now appear instantly.
But my question is: Why idled is disabled by default? It seems to be working great. Does anybody knows if there are drawbacks in using idled?
Hmmm... Recently there was this email on Cyrus Announce mailing list:
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/archive/message.php?mailbox=archive.cyrus-announce&am...
It's announcement for version 2.3.1. Quoting: "IDLE now works with idled". So I guess there might have been some problems with it in previous version(s), if it "now works" in the most recent version. I guess cyrus-info mailing list would be the best place to inquire what was wrong with idled in previous versions (if there was something wrong with it in 2.2.x).
