cyrus-imapd 2.2.3 and saslauthd/ldap domainless logins.

[Edward Rudd]

MY cyrus admin user IS in the ldap.  The issue was with how cyrus was
auto appending the machine's domain to the username if it did not
contain an @ which i do not want it to do.. So the virtdomains: userid
is the solution for my setup..
