Nevertheless, I am not a fan of Debian or
Ubuntu (especially Ubuntu due to lack of updates) and prefer
generally rolling releases. But that is just a side remark.
Try SUSE.

Well, the old Mailserver was running on Suse and I'd love to continue to do that, HOWEVER, there was no way to install cyrus from a repository (also not found under software.opensuse.org). It seems to be included in the Pro/Paid versions, but not in tumbleweed/leap anymore.


You can use Sieve and use any Sieve client to change the sieve
script. There seem to be old addons for TB to manage that.
The old addons are not working with the current version of
Thunderbird and sieve scripts are nothing I can hand over to my
users. And honestly I do not want to be the one switching this all
the time for all users.
The SOGo groupware offers editing Sieve in the user's settings. Is that
an option?

Yes, I will look into this. Thank you.

- - alternatively getting group-e to work with cyrus 3.10 (it can
only be configured to cyrus 2.4)
What doesn't work and what changed in Cyrus that broke it?
- Only INBOX is show, including TRASH/SENT/DRAFT but no other folder
of that account
Looks like it doesn't subscribe to the other folders.

It cannot even access them. With Cyrus 2.4/2.5 it worked well, but no just nothing, nada, empty.
Is that maybe an ACL error (check lm <mailbox> in cyradm)?

Accessible for all (needed to be sure that there are no ACL in the way). Still have to roll that back to the real access right but handling with on the CLI with cyradm is rather painful.


- Auto-replys cannot be configured (time out)
- Server-side filters cannot be configures (time out)
Is Sieve reachable?

Yes, I can access it via Telnet without problem.

This is the stuff I learned from. Which topics are missing?
https://www.cyrusimap.org/imap/reference/manpages/systemcommands/cyradm.html


Probably nothing. As an unfrequent admin that operates the mail server in the background of a SME with a couple of dozend users, it is difficult to use the man page as it likely means that looking up every time for a new user the commands. Also, a number of needed steps are not shows, e.g. Saslpasswd2, local user account etc. without any creation with cyradm does not work (here).

It might be fine for a larger setup/university/company that has ressources to setup suitable scripts here, but on the typical "I love yast of Suse"-level it is kind of... let's keep it at difficult for the connoisseur. I will check all you remarks about 3rd party software that may make my life easier.

Thankn you for your help.

Cheers
