[OGo-Users] graceful failure on absence of imap server?

Thanks for that information.  I'm actually not trying to do a backup as 
much as build a hot standby server.  Unfortunately, from what I can gather 
the only realistic prospect of doing this is shut down cyrus, rsync, start 
cyrus.  I didn't want to trouble anyone here with these issues as they are 
not directly related to OGO.   Do you mean that I should be able to do the 
rsync without shutting down the cyrus server which is the source, and that 
following the rsync the destination server should be able to reconstruct a 
viable system?  What I'd read on the cyrus mailing list always seemed to 
show the cyrus source-server being shutdown before the rsync.

I will see if I can find out more about what's happening with ogo-webui 
using gdb.

As an aside,  there is no reason to shutdown Cyrus to do a backup.
Cyrus is entirely transactional.  You should always be able to restore a
mailstore and run a reconstruct.
