> I was running Cyrus 2.3.7 on RHEL 5 just fine for the past several years. Recently I upgraded from physical machine to virtual and from RHEL 5 to RHEL 6. Cyrus IMAPD was upgraded to the 2.3.16 which comes with RedHat. What needs to be noted that IP of the server have changed. I'm not sure if I'm missing something but domain resolution doesn't work as it worked before. %r always resolves to 'hostname.domain.tld'.
