imap not responding/cyradm hangs

[Andy Litzinger]

Thanks for you help Jon, I found the error.  I was having permissions problems 
related to the cyrus user and the /var/imap, /var/spool/imap directories.  Once I 
corrected those I no longer got the startup errors and I can now successfully connect 
to imapd.

Thanks!
  Andy
