I'm confused by your description. In what way does SquirrelMail interact 
with Cyrus IMAP that would result in permission denied errors? If you 
have a valid user that authenticates, and your prefix is set up 
properly, SquirrelMail should be able to create the necessary folders. 
Look for differences in SquirrelMail's config.php file on your working 
Centos setup. Using autocreate with Cyrus seems a red herring here. It's 
anybody's guess what's wrong with Outlook. I *always* test/troubleshoot 
that beast last.
