Hi Patrick, I'm a ridiculously happy user of Cyrus on OBSD 2.7 (I'll upgrade to 2.8 this weekend). However, I did NOT feel I needed the added complexity of the SASL library and do not use sieve. I've found version 1.5.19 to be very stable, albeit incompatible with Outlook 2000 but compatible with OE, Eudora, Netscape, Pegasus, and Mulberry. I installed the package from their web site, and followed the Linux how to (don't forget the pwcheck daemon). The only thing I had to was create the deliverdb entries under /var. This may not be the ideal solution for you. For my needs, supporting a moderate volume of mail from a handful of trusted users, using TCPwrappers/IPF for access control and IPSEC or ssh for privacy, and have no need of quota support this works for me. I'm quite appreciative of it's (relative) security and speed. Let me know if you would like specifics of the install; it may be an option to get this up and running and move onto a newer version at a later time. However, read the change log and make an informed decision about the impacts of the bug fixes since 1.5.19 before installing 1.5.19 I should note that we are considering lifting the IP restrictions so I'll upgrade to 1.6.2x for the TLS support and to fix suid issues.
