Map realm to user

[Pedro Silva]

Thanks for the suggestion.
I tried what you said bust the result was the same...

Here is what my logfile looks like using a webmail imap client
When I authenticate with 'user:pass'

cyrus/imap[24503]: accepted connection
cyrus/imap[24503]: login: servername [x.x.x.x] 'user' plaintext User 
logged in
cyrus/imap[24503]: open: user 'user' opened INBOX

now when I use 'user at domain:pass'

cyrus/imap[24572]: accepted connection
cyrus/imap[24572]: login: servername [x.x.x.x] 'user at domain' plaintext 
User logged in

but no inbox is opened and no error is reported.

Here's my imapd.conf configuration
