I can't change servername to jura because our users will connect to 
'mail.ugent.be' and 'mail.ugent.be' is a round robin DNS to our imap 
proxy servers (e.g. jura.ugent.be, ...).
And these proxy server will forward requests to the correct imap backend 
(e.g. mail1.ugent.be, mail2.ugent.be, ...)

jura.ugent.be and mail1.ugent.be are the same machine.  jura.ugent.be is 
eth0 and mail1.ugent.be is eth0:1

I've tested a bit further and added a user cyrus at blabla.ugent.be to the 
sasldb2 file.  I can then login with cyradm.  But can't ask for any 
mailboxes or create mailboxes.

I added cyrus at mail1.ugent.be also to the sasldb2 file.  I can login with 
cyradm but can't do a thing.

I would think that sasl is doing everything ok, but it is the imap 
server that is stopping some things.

Does anybody have any clues about how to further debug this?
