more hints please

[Ken Murchison]

Both errors are a result of your client trying to use a SASL mech which 
you don't have secrets for.  In the case of OTP, you have the OPIE 
library installed and SASL found it, so it is assuming that the secrets 
are in /etc/opiekeys, otherwise it would be using /etc/sasldb2 as well.

If you don't want to use these mechs for anything, then simply remove 
the plugins from /usr/lib/sasl2.

Alternatively, you could restrict the set being advertised by Cyrus by 
using the sasl_mech_list option in imapd.conf.  (Note that in this case 
the plugins might still complain because they are still loaded).
