Why wouldn't it not as it is essentially needed to administer Cyrus-IMAPd? $ rpm -ql cyrus-imapd-utils | grep cyradm /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyradm /usr/share/man/man1/cyradm.1.gz > One of my questions is why is this necessary?

Because you didn't carefully enough read the documentation. Else you would realize that Cyrus-IMAPd does not use the mbox storage under /var/spool/mail/. And that you have to create the mailboxes using cyradm for each user (or to use the autocreate patch options). > Mark Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | new address - new key: 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora GNU/Linux Core 2 (Tettnang) on Athlon kernel 2.6.10-1.9_FC2smp Serendipity 14:19:20 up 4 days, 21:41, load average: 0.04, 0.24, 0.18
