I agree. It know that it isn't a critical feature but it would make life much easier if something is there in /var/log/ that collects everything what's going on with cyrus-imap and the mailboxes.
That way it would also be more compliant with the way other services do logging. I would be very happy if you would consider it. B.t.w. don't get me wrong: i like the cyrus-imap already the way it is...:-) Grz.
