Also note that the Debian packages for Cyrus are old, from a

what I'm doing for a family-and-friends mailserver. I might
come up with a .deb for my own use, but don't hold your breath...

There is a wishlist bug for 2.x.

This is getting off topic.

You say with some configuration, so then you can disable
this action or is it a Winblows default that you can't touch?

Yes, sorry, not trying to be obscure, just tried to wave my hands
without actually checking...

Go to Local Area Connection Properties - Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Properties - Advanced - Options - IP security - Properties -
Use this IP security policy (whew!).

If the above is set to Server (Request Security), it will try to 
negotiate IPSec. It could well default to that in Server/Adv. Server,
can't remember.
