Thanks. Appreciate it. |

I seem to have cyrus-imapd and cyrus-sasl playing nice together with |
| 11 |
web-cyradm. I guess one of the worst thing about this config is |
| 12 |
understanding what is happening! There are too many users and too many |
| 13 |
passwords and virtual accounts (username/loginame/email-addresses) are |
| 14 |
counterintuitive. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
eg: using web-cyradm's domain_as_prefix=0 (this is where all users from |
| 17 |
1 specific domain is : |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Domain = domain1.com |
| 20 |
Domain_prefix = dom1 |
| 21 |
EmailAddress = user1@×××××××.com |
| 22 |
username = dom1001 |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
turns out this is created as |
| 25 |
/var/spool/imap/user/dom10001 |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Users will have to login as dom1001. Sort of like *nix usenames, but |
| 28 |
wierder for end-users.. Not Good. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Then I tried DOMAIN_AS_PREFIX=1 and unix hierarchysep:yes |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Mail Spool becomes: |
| 33 |
/var/spool/imap/user/u/user1^domain1^com |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Username = user1.domain1.com |
| 36 |
email address = user1@×××××××.com |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Now, this is a bit better. But I'm worried about directory structure. It |
| 39 |
really wouldn't be _that_ hard to admin as long as I use the web-cyradm |
| 40 |
interface (so I don't get confused between who's who). However, this |
| 41 |
would mean the mail spool directory will be all mixed up. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
Isn't there a way to do something like |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
/var/spool/imap/domain/domain1.com/user1 ?? |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
I've yet to try out virtdomain:userid in cyrus. I wonder if that will |
| 48 |
make a difference. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
[... testing ...] |
| 51 |
Nope. Doesn't make a difference. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
So.. any ideas? |

Right now, I have my hands full trying to get it work. :-) |
