Yes in my case then it is useless. At the very least it needs to run with a
pop server also.
Postfix, qmail, and courier-imap all can do maildir easily. With maildrop for
courier imap filtering is very easy so for instance spamassassin can be
called and the resulting email can be filtered into folders for spam, virus,
and questionable with all other mail being forwarded directly to the normal
mailbox.
If this is the case with cyrus it would be a fairly sever limitation for those
using a pop server also.
