cyrus imap proxy?

[Wolfgang Powisch]

Try "Perdition" (http://www.vergenet.net/linux/perdition/)

We are using it in a large production setup with 4 backend
cyrus servers (no murder setup).

It can handle POP3() and IMAP(S) und can use different database-backends
(sql,ldap...) for looking up the right backup-server for a user.

BTW: i think you have to ensure, that usernames are uniq across
the backend servers or the users are logging in with username at domain.

I'm not really familiar with kerberos authentication, but with
perdition, the authentication is handled only by the backup-server.
