I have "allowusermoves: yes" in my imapd.conf file and find that the renamemailbox command in cyradm to rename a user works, which is fine.

However when I try the same in a small perl program of my own I get "Operation is not supported on mailbox" returned. The script will rename sub-folders, but behaves just as it used to before "allowusermoves: yes" was set.

Do I need to do anything in my perl script to get it to take note of the new option?

No, this option is server-side, not client side. Is yoru perl program authentcating as an admin? You need to be an admin to rename a user.




I am using the same username/password to authenticate in the perl script as i do when using the cyradm utility.

Is it possible that your perl program is using a SASL mech which allow proxying and its authorizing as a different user than you're authenticating (effectively making you a non-admin)?


But then I would not be able to rename a sub-folder either. My perl script will happily rename a sub-folder belonging to any user.

Can you provide a protocol dump of what the perl program is sending to the server?
