I have enabled debug. (in imapd.conf debug: yes). Now when I start a telnet
imap session /var/log/maillog has this:
Jan 24 13:25:59 dell2600 imap[4507]: accepted connection
Jan 24 13:25:59 dell2600 master[4549]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/imapd
Jan 24 13:25:59 dell2600 imap[4549]: executed
Jan 24 13:25:59 dell2600 imap[4549]: IOERROR: opening
/var/lib/imap/user_deny.db: No such file or directory
Is this the problem?
How do I create user_deny.db ?
~ o ~
The debug exposed error has been eliminated by creating user_deny.db
#su cyrus
bash-4.2$ touch /var/lib/imap/user_deny.db
Telnet session still does NOT report the presence of INBOX:
$ telnet localhost imap
Trying ::1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

I am at a complete loss to understand how it is possible that mail is
delivered, but at the same time the INBOX is not being identified during the
imap session.
Is there some way to increase the bebug level of imapd ?
