Maybe I lost it someplace but were does it store it's maildirs? Is it in
home/insert_user_nere or?
Also it was mentioned above that cyrus imap works with pop3 also. Is it only a
pop3 server that is made by the cyrus people? Can it do virtual hosting and
can it do this from a ldap database? Well or any database for that matter?
Can it do secure pop3 and smtp? Both authenticate and transmitting and
receiving?
For myself I don't use ldap yet but I can see the need for it in a large
setting were samba is set to use ldap also. I can also see the need for the
use of a db in virtual hosting situations.
However The rest of those features I already have. The ones I have not listed
have already been addressed I do believe.
