Cyrus Imap final setup problems

[Nybbles2Byte]

Thanks Dan,

You hit the nail on the head with the virtual domains. I had someone come
in to set this up for me and when I found out they knew as little as I did I
took it over. There was a lot to do and moving over to vitual domains I was
originally going to do immediatly but later decided to make it a second step.
However, I didn't realise that I had left virtualdomains set to true.

So, I removed all the data files (since there was no live data yet), turned 
off virtualdomains (and autocreatequota since it's not needed) and then 
reran mkimap. With all the data and structures recreated from scratch all 
the problem seem to have gone away. Now I'll setup the Virtual domains 
as you suggested and I'll bet it will all be fine.

Thanks again!
