At a glance, ispCP Omega doesn't support Cyrus, which is the problem in my case 
(like it is with many other CPs). After having tried several MDAs, Cyrus is the 
one for me for several reasons (one of them being the mailstore, each message 
in it's own file). But I guess you are right, most admins might want all-in-one 
solutions, but I prefer managing my servers without much automation. In email 
administration, on the other hand, it is nice to have the ability to delegate 
admin tasks and have nice web interface for account creations etc.

Maybe we could engineer temporary patch for web-cyradm, since it might take a 
while before new version. Can anyone supply more detailed errors / logs about 
the problems with PHP 5.3? I Use web-cyradm 0.5.5 w/ PHP 5.3 and have no 
troubles. I recall someone sayin that errors occur when using user@domain style 
usernames, which I don't. 

And about the suggestions, they're most welcome, like Richard already stated. 
Exim & Dovecot support might be little out of scope, but if we have enough 
testers for it, I don't mind. Exim shouldn't be a problem, the trick (I think) 
is just to get it read the mysql-tables and either authenticat against it or 
use PAM. Dovecot could give some trouble, depending on how specific the cyrus 
mailbox administration is. We'll probably find out when we get there...
