Thunderbird prompted for my password and then made satisfied noises, but no mail appeared in my INBOX (in Thunderbird). I spent a few hours reading stuff in the Cyrus docs and didn't really find anything that I was sure I should be tweaking, so I tried something else.
Are you, per chance, running something in addition to Cyrus? Some people, out of habit, run qpopper, an totally blow off the message cyrus spews about not being able to open port 110.
A very good question. (^-^) It's also possible, that qpopper is started from within xinetd. Again, the logfile will tell you. What does the log /var/log/messages say, when you start Cyrus?
Cyrus does both imap and pop3, and once configured correctly you can do either, or both at to the same account switching back and forth if needed.
Some days ago I decided to configure some pop accounts (only used imap before) and ran into the /dev/random problem. I was lazy and simply set "allowapop:0" in /etc/imapd.conf. This is still Suse 9.2, do you know if the problem still persists in Suse 10.x?
Its a monster compared to the pervious imapd and qpopper, but it does work eventually. Gets even crazier when you throw ldap into the mix.
Backup is also a bitch, but the features are indeed nice. (^-^) Sandy -- List replies only please!
