Please change the DNS lookup = defaultdomain process, and use defaultdomain as the default domain.

[josh at endries.org]

Hi, thanks for the reply.

What I'm trying to achieve is that, when I log in with "user", Cyrus  
appends the defaultdomain value when looking up the password (I use  
SQL for that).

My fqdn for the server is mail.blah.com, which is what I normally use.  
I'm not sure why it stopped working; I changed the IP of the box,  
along with forward and reverse DNS, and it broke. That's separate from  
the bug, though. It should append the defaultdomain if there is none  
in the user name; pretty simple.

I did my admin stuff manually which seemed to work so I'm giving up on  
this for the time being. I have too much to do and have wasted a whole  
day on this already... I have another problem with Sieve vacation  
replies that I need to fix, which is even worse; no logging  
whatsoever. Joy.
