FreeBSD - Cyrus Imapd2 - Configuration/Operation

[Bungee [EF]]

1. sasldb access

For the hell of it I changed access to Sasldb* to 777

-rwxrwxrwx   1 cyrus  mail   16384 Dec 20 21:20 sasldb.db
-rwxrwxrwx   1 cyrus  mail   16384 Dec 21 13:27 sasldb2.db

%cyradm -user cyrus --auth digest-md5 localhost imap
Password:
localhost> cm user.jdoe
createmailbox: Permission denied

localhost> sasldblistusers2
cyrus at adomain.co.uk: userPassword
jdoe at adomain.co.uk: userPassword

A> So shouldn't be a file permission issue
------------------------------------------


2. imapd.conf

Editted imapd.conf to have cyrus as admin 

adomain# more imapd.conf | grep admin
admins: cyrus


As as Cyrus did following:
%cyradm -user cyrus --auth digest-md5 localhost imap
Password:
localhost> cm user.jdoe
localhost>

A> Cyrus is now included as admin. For a change no Error message!!
------------------------------------------


So Lesson learnt from this is ensure cyrus is included in the imapd.conf as
admin as it isn't by default on FreeBSD 

Thanks everyone for the help all.
