Sounds viable. If you're starting sync_client from outside your cyrus
instance then you need to manage it with your init script as well. We
actually do this with a wrapper tool, but the underlying concept is
there.

Yeah, I'm not surprised. A bunch of us have spent a fair bit of time on
tracking down the bugs in replication and squashing them one-by-one! We
(FastMail) only see bailouts when there's something really bogus like a
corrupt cache file (or when a replica gets shut down with the sync still
running of course).
Glad you seem sorted :)

break and work on something else )
