I thought the PAM name was taken from the service name in /etc/cyrus.conf, 
but my own configuration seems to indicate that it must be hardcoded for 
each service.  I only have PAM files for "imap", "lmtp", and "sieve" 
although I have other service names for some of them.

I guess it's just the imapd.conf config variables that are allowed to be 
prefixed with the service name.
