I get this as well when trying to telnet to localhost imap.
When running the imtest program I get:
C: C01 CAPABILITY
prot level failure.
This is also a linux system, albeit on a PPC. It looks as if master is not
setenving CYRUS_SERVICE correctly, or at all.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, as I'd very much like to rid myself of my
UW-IMAP server in favor of Cyrus =)
thanks,
Ethan
