Good webmail client software for cyrus?
Hi all, After much pain I have my cyrus-imap server up and working with sendmail. I have penetrated the configuration subtleties of serving virtual domains and persuading cyrus and sendmail to co-operate using today's security protocols.(MD5 and TLS/SSL). I am now researching how to provide a HTTP (webmail style) MAU as an alternative to a bunch of IMAP feature lacking, or otherwise broken, desktop user agents. I also need to source a GUI mailbox/password server management tool. Currently I'm using MySql Workbench for password management and cyradm command line for mailbox configuration. I'm hoping to combine the above management features in one web enabled system. I see Zimbra and roundcube. The former commercial, the latter open source, appear to provide the required technical solutions. Although it is slightly unclear that either provide configurable password management capable of interfacing to MySql. Neither of the above are ideal. The first because it isn't open source. The latter because it is written in PHP. A paradigm I am too old to become proficient in. I would much prefer an open source GPL modperl approach. I attempted to install WING: http://sourceforge.net/projects/web-imap/,. but the project appears dead. My request to the mailing list: wing-admin-subscr...@maillist.ox.ac.uk bounced immediately. Also I suspect that it has some embedded UW IMAP server dependency. I have started looking at Cyrus::IMAP::Admin with some preliminary success. This not easy because of the stunning lack of documentation and the particularly obscure 'perlish' coding style! I have two questions therefore: First has anybody got any insight into any other good open source solutions? Alternatively is there a modperl webmail like project out there I could contribute to?

Horde probably provides everything you are looking for; it is VERY feature-complete, standards compliant, and well supported. http://www.horde.org/ I'm hoping to combine the above management features in one web enabled system. I see Zimbra and roundcube. The former commercial, the latter open source, appear to provide the required technical solutions. Although it is slightly unclear that either provide configurable password management capable of interfacing to MySql. Horde's user / group / password support is extremely flexible. Neither of the above are ideal. The first because it isn't open source. The latter because it is written in PHP. A paradigm I am too old to become proficient in. PHP is the platform of just apps. AFAIK there is no supported / current webmail interface in Java / .NET. PHP is nothing to be afraid of, it is simple to deploy and support; certainly more so that Python or other web-server alternatives.

uppercase usernames
Hi List, I am using cyrus since ~8 years for a mailserver with ~200 mailaccounts. After transferring a mailserver from cyrus 2.2 to 2.4, I have an issue with usernames containing uppercase letters. Up to now, i did tread the part before the @ as case sensitive, and i allowed users to create mailboxes like TestCApital. I have set: lmtp_downcase_rcpt: 0 username_tolower: 0 When I try: testsaslauthd -u TestCApital.domain -p password I get 0: OK Success. But when I try to logon via imap, i see in the logs: ... saslauthd[24118]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=testcapital.domain] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error] What is the best solution to work around this?
