Re: Strange Bug: Have to restart Mail-Clients to see new (recent) Mails

Hi Ellie,

thanks for your informations. I am evaluation the possibility to conduct a major release upgrade on
the affected systems (Debian Buster to Bullseye). This will upgrade Cyrus from 3.0.8 to 3.2.X.
Hopefully this will resolve these problems.

Cheers
Jörg
