Thanks - > John Why don't you just use dovecot? Cyrus-IMAPd is complex and not that easy to administer. It is far from trivial. Anyway, as long as you don't configure your Postfix properly to deliver to Cyrus-IMAPd you will never see it handling the incoming mail. Saying that you use "Postfix/mbox" shows that you don't know anything about Cyrus-IMAPd and how it interacts with the MTA. So please start with reading the documentation. The homepage is http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/imapd/ As long as you don't know about the cyrus administrative account and how Cyrus-IMAPd uses authentification and very important how it communicates with the MTA you will have no success. For the last point I wrote a bugzilla RFA which contains the important setup steps on the Postfix side: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=122910 And google has a lot of documents if you search for "Cyrus-imap Postfix", i.e. http://doc.trustix.org/cgi-bin/trustixdoc.cgi?Postfix_And_CyrusIMAP Again, better use dovecot if you really have to run your own MTA/IMAP mail server.
