Hi folks,
Further to my 1st posting listed at the bottom, I found out the trick.
I must use the password created on running;
# saslpasswd2 -c cyrus
NOT on running;
# passwd cyrus
What will be the use of the 2nd password? Thanks.
Now on running;
$ cyradm -u cyrus localhost
Password:
localhost> cm user.satimiscyrus
localhost> quit
it works. But I can't find this new user NOR its mailbox.
$ locate satimiscyrus
No printout
$ sudo ls -la /var/spool/cyrus/
