Stable on solaris 10. I never experienced problems before, but today I
wanted to add a filter from within SquirrelMail and got this warning:

Please contact your administrator.

resolve to 127.0.0.1 so I don't think this could ever work.

If that were true, how could it have ever worked? Yanta is the cyrus
mailer machine and known through internal dns for years.
Can I make the sieve service listen on a specific IP?

Sieveshell on yanta does work btw. From the sieve extension for
thunderbird I get the impression that something has changed in the
authorization procedure. All email connections are with CRAM-MD5. No
tls/ssl, no plain logins. So all connections must be secure? Has something
changed from cyrus-2.3.9 to 2.3.11 in this matters? Because it all started
after this CSWpackage upgrade from xx.9 to xx.11

I'll post my cyrus.conf here too, because I really would like this matter
solved if it can be ;-)

[cyrus.conf]
configdirectory: /opt/csw/var/cyrus/config
partition-default: /opt/csw/var/cyrus/mail
sievedir: /opt/csw/var/cyrus/sieve
admins: cyrus

munge8bit: yes
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
# sasl_mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
# autocreatequota: -1

tls_cert_file: /opt/csw/ssl/private/imap/server.pem
tls_key_file: /opt/csw/ssl/private/imap/server.pem
[/cyrus.conf]

Any ideas, tips are most welcome and appreciated.
