cyrus-imapd-2.5 deliver does not authenticate - bug? or user error?

[John]

Short version:

|cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m SharedMailbox| gives ‘+SharedMailbox: Mailbox
does not exist’ unless ‘anonymous’ is granted ‘p’ on ‘SharedMailbox’.

Long version:

I’ve built Cyrus IMAP from the cyrus-imapd-2.5 branch on a plain Ubuntu
14.04 server (hostname caraway). It’s at the latest version of cyrus on
git at the timestamp of this email. It’s configured with:

|./configure --prefix=/usr --program-prefix=cyr --enable-event-notification --enable-http --disable-nntp --enable-sieve \
--enable-pcre --with-pgsql --with-sqlite --enable-autocreate --enable-idled --with-pgsql-incdir=/usr/include/postgresql
|

(The program prefix ‘cyr’ is to try to match the Ubuntu built way of
doing things.)

With previous versions of cyrus, I could use: |cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m
user/fred/Spam| to deliver mails. Now I know to use |cyrdeliver -a cyrus
-m Spam fred| instead. My problem comes when delivering mail to non-user
(shared) mailboxes. I have a shared mailbox called Arkive which I expect
to be able to deliver to using |cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive|. This,
and a whole host of related/similar commands also fail unless I grant
‘p’ rights to ‘anonymous’. Here’s exactly what I have tried:

|xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive
+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist
xxxx at caraway:~$ sudo /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive
+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist
xxxx at caraway:~$ sudo /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a anonymous -m Arkive
+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist
xxxx at caraway:~$ cyradm -U cyrus localhost
Password:

cyrus lrsip

From: No-one

I’m catching event notifications using a little external script which
just appends them to a log file for now. So this is what they said:

|xxxx at caraway:~$ tail /var/log/mr/notify.log 
Sat Apr 11 09:32:23 UTC 2015
/apps/mr_project/mr_notify.sh -c EVENT -p -u -m

It looks like cyrdeliver is delivering without authenticating? The
events are not showing a user.

And I tried a few other things.

|xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive cyrus
cyrus+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist

xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive anonymous
anonymous+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist

xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a anonymous -m Arkive
^D
xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -m Arkive
^D
xxxx at caraway:~$ cyradm -U cyrus localhost
Password: 
localhost> dam Arkive anonymous
localhost> lam Arkive
cyrus lrsip
xxxx lrs
localhost> 
xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -m Arkive
+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist
xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -m Arkive
+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist
|

I also tried setting |postuser: shared| in imapd.conf and then

|xxxx at caraway:~$ /usr/cyrus/bin/cyrdeliver -a cyrus -m Arkive shared
shared+Arkive: Mailbox does not exist

Am I missing something here, or doing something wrong? I don’t want to,
or expect to, have to give ‘p’ rights to anonymous on any shared mailbox
I want to post into.

Thanks for any insight you can give. You can find me on #cyrus as
earthspike.
