We're in the process of moving from Cyrus 2.4.17 to 2.5.7.
So far this is going OK - but I've noticed when I stop the 2.5.7 server
(this is on FreeBSD so 'service imapd stop') - it leaves behind idled?
Should this be stopped by the imap server itself, or does it need stopping
manually / by the control scripts?
I had this problem some time ago.
For me, solution was to use --with-libcap at configure/compile time. Linux here.

master sends Term signal to all process group, including idled, although ppid
is 1.
Problem here was that idled was being launched by root. So sending it a signal
from cyrus user will not work.
Looking into code, I needed to add libcap "--with-libcap" to configure and
recompile. This makes become_cyrus success before START section and idled being launched
now by cyrus user.
