BTW, the quoting syle of your e-mail client makes this hard to follow.
I'm unsure which of the comments belong to which reply.

Test with testsaslauthd first, before going on the other things.

What mechanism is saslauthd using to authenticate users?

See 'ps ax | grep saslauthd' and the contents of
your /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd file.

BTW I have a document with a chapter on Cyrus that might cover some
stuff you are interested in.
