Perhaps Outlook is configured to use SSL [which uses a different port]
or TLS and the server is not configured to support TLS.

[BTW: Both Outlook 2003 and Cyrus 2.2 are very old;  Cyrus 2.2 is
extremely old.]

Have you disabled the Exchange extensions?  These can interfere with
'normal' IMAP connections, especially in Outlook 2003.

Tools -> Options -> Other -> Advanced -> Options -> Add-In Manager ->
Uncheck Exchange Extensions property.
