I cannot find the string unixheirsep in the whole source distribution! 
Is it a cyrus specific setting or some unix system setting ? What's it 
all about ?

Cyradm says:

localhost> cm user/testtesttest at testtesttest.test
createmailbox: Invalid mailbox name

localhost> cm user.testtesttest at testtesttest
localhost> lm
...
user.testtesttest at testtesttest
...

localhost> lam user.testtesttest at testtesttest
testtesttest at testtesttest lrswipcda

So it seems that I am able to create a mailbox 
user.testtesttest at testtesttest

saslpasswd -u testtesttest -c testtesttest

but then I cannot login with testtesttest at testtesttest :-(

That's exactly as I did it...

...and that's what I want ;-)

and nothing more !

I think I will manage it if I knew what is ment by unixheirsep !

Thanks !
