Hi!

AFAIK you can't do that with cyrus. Cyrus was developed as a sealed service which do not depend on system accounts. That's his strenght in some areas and his weakness in others :)

That said, maybe it's easier to patch cyrus to log traffic information for each mailbox that doing it at OS level.

Hello,

i wonder if such a patch has already been done for cyrus:

I need to have the cyrus imapd and pop3d child processes running under the
uid of the user who logged into them.

Right now, i only have ldap users on this system. Maybe someone can point me
out if its easy to be done or impossible because of structural reasons ? At
least the imapd on our solaris is doing that. I would want it for my cyrus
also for traffic accounting reasons.

thanks for help.
