Roger,

can you tell me why you describe the step to change the default setup of
saslauthd touse MECH=pam instead of default MECH=shadow? As you give not
any argument I just can't understand any need for it. The default
setting is absolutely correct and works proper.

And besides configuring Cyrus-IMAPd in any way it all helps less, if the
MTA does not know good about the Cyrus-IMAPd deliver tool and the LMTP
socket.
