Hi! Thanks for helping. The question was related to virtual user's who have maildir homes of course. I was able to solve the problem a few moments ago, .forward works as needed (only if it exists). And also the maildrop problem is solved, since .forward can use SIEVE filtering when written "#Sieve filter" in the first line. So everything seems to be going great! Thanks for everything!

maildrop

Hi Guys! I am trying to make maildrop work with exim4u, but I don't have much idea how to make it work. The aim is: - if the user has a .mailfilter file in its $HOME, then pipe the message to maildrop with the specific .mailfilter file of the user Exim4u has a bultin piping solution in the web interface also, maybe this can be achieved through that? How do I have to use that? If I don't want to achieve this through the web interface, and I want to make it a default behaviour if the . mailfilter file exists, what are the steps to do? I would really appreciate some help with this! Thank you in advance! Regards, Daniel

I think i figure out about the memory problem. most of the memory is cache so if you run top the result is misleading, if you run free the second line is more important to be concern about. you can check this link for further explaination. http://serverfault.com/questions/85470/meaning-of-the-buffers-cache-line-in… FYI my system is Debian 5.0 lenny, kernel 2.6.26-2-686 Thanks Kebba On Thu, 2010-06-17 at 12:00 -0400, users-request(a)exim4u.org wrote: > Send users mailing list submissions to > users(a)exim4u.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://exim4u.org/mailman/listinfo/users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > users-request(a)exim4u.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > users-owner(a)exim4u.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
