Please feel free to offer alternative possibleanswers or point out inaccuracies or possible points ofmisunderstanding.Q: When using saslauthd with PAM, IMAP and POP authenticate fine, butsieve authentication attempts fail. What could be causing this?A: Timsieved in version 2.1.X identifies itself to PAM with servicename"sieve" instead of "imap" as it used to in earlier releases of Cyrus, soyou need to add sieve to your PAM configuration. Try "cp /etc/pam.d/imap/etc/pam.d/sieve". (Thanks, Daniel)

Java, IMAP and auth proxy
Does anyone know of a Java IMAP library or JavaMail spi which implements auth proxying. The sun IMAP spi that comes with JavaMail does not and I read the documentation for iPlanet Java messaging library and it only implements simple login. Any help is appreciated Cheers Chris

Re: cyradm authentication
Daniel Yu wrote: It's said so. However, here is what I discovered. Even I didn't enable login when I compile SASL library, I still could use --auth login for cyradm. Furthermore, it returns different result when I use --auth plain versus --auth login. Here is what I got. cyradm --user cyrus --auth plain localhost Password: IMAP Password: localhost cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost IMAP Password: localhost Both approaches work, but plain asks me the same password for one more time. I don't know the reason either. In the first example, PLAIN auth is most likely failing because it isn't advertised by the server unless protected by a security layer (SSL/TLS). It then falls back to trying the IMAP LOGIN command. See my other post in this thread regarding the difference between the AUTH=LOGIN and IMAP LOGIN.

Outlook 2000 Internet Mail Only causes page fault
Hello all - I have a server running an older version of cyrus (1.6.22 to be exact). The question I have though, shouldn't be specific to this version. The client is using Outlook with the Internet Mail Only option, and when attempting to check their mail, outlook pops up an Invalid Page Fault error. According to Microsoft, this is of course an error with IMAP which can only be solved by creating a new mailbox on the server for the individual. Now, I can access the mailbox fine via Outlook Express, Netscape, command line, etc. Before I go through the hassle of moving this mailbox out of the way, recreating a new one, and then moving all the messages back, can someone explain to me how this happens? Just curious. This is similar to the fixall for Microsoft - if it crashes, reinstall it. Thanks, B -- Robert Scussel 1024D/BAF70959/0036 B19E 86CE 181D 0912 5FCC 92D8 1EA1 BAF7 0959
Mailing list software
Afternoon folks, I'm curious to know what mailing list cyrus admins like. I have a solaris server w/sendmail/cyrus. I was going to stick Majordomo on it,(In fact it is installed). However grumbling from the users seems to indicate they'd like something more *friendly*. Any ideas? Looked at Mailman, saw it didn't really like sendmail. Am looking at LISTSERV. Big issues are stripping attachments,(want to), limiting resend tries. THANKS! -Kiarna
