Fedora 8 cyrus-imap install w/ cyrus admin cm permission errors (long post)

Sun Mar 16 19:50:43 EDT 2008

Greetings,

I have two freshly installed Fedora 8 systems exhibiting the same behaviour, cyrus admin permission error when creating a mailbox, this may be only coincidental because of the operator. 

After several days of research reading and reviewing multiple cyrus installation howtos, then IMAP RFC, installing and uninstalling, and following threads in discussion forums, I am unable to find the persistant cause of the permission error.

Please direct me to some debugging method to solve the permission complaint.
-------------system information
- cyrus is admin in imapd.conf
- user cyrus and group mail have permissions in directories /var/spool/imap and /var/lib/imap
- cyradm and imtest connections are authenticated
- cyrus authenticates via sasl_sql
- perl modules are current
- no error reporting in /var/log within messages, auth.log, or cyrus.log  

----------------------------Sample imtest session:

# imtest -u cyrus -a cyrus localhost
