Hi Jeremy, folks,
Thanks for that. For anybody checking the archives, when I reconstructed
the Cyrus server, for some reason a Drafts and Sent folder were created at
the root of the folder tree, with permissions "anyone lrs". I actually had
the folders INBOX.Drafts and INBOX.Sent set up and with the correct
permissions on them, but OE tries to do a trick where it attempts to saved
sent messages direct to "Sent" instead of "INBOX.Sent", as it assumes that
"Sent" is a subfolder of INBOX by default.
The solution is to blow away the Sent and Drafts folders from the root of
the directory tree, and OE behaves itself quite nicely again, with calls to
"Sent" automatically going to "INBOX.Sent" :)
Thanx heaps - Cyrus is king again :)
Luv,
d.
