is there any particular reason the Cyrus imap system isn't contained in the SuSE-distribution?

Hello Erwin,
Carsten Hoeger told me that it's the license that keeps us from including the package. Sorry.
Thanks, Roman.
Hi Roman, Well, in fact the licence has changed since version 2.x (at the end of May). I think it might be considered open source, now.

I do hope you will reconsider...

Right, the license is acceptable (for my gusto). The responsible maintainer has been notified - I can't promise anything. The package needs extensive testing before we can include it in the distribution. Thanks!
