We are running Cyrus at PEAK.
It does some things nicely. However, it has broken all of the procmail and .forward based mail filtering. And so has broken many people. I have chosen to take spam instead of moving to cyrus personally because I process on the order of 4000 messages a day. And with Cyrus breaking all the tools that I currently use, I would not be able to function. Cyrus uses a specific structure for message storage. And as such, samba would not work underneath it. I would leave an escape for the onid users who try to filter mail. Loosing procmail is a big loss. The cyrus filter tools are not nearly as flexible nor as powerful.
