That version you have (1.6.24) is a little old. I'm not sure what
distribution you're using, but you are presumably using an RPM-based
Linux. The Red Hat Powertools CD has RPMs for cyrus-imap 2.0.9. I
suggest getting the latest cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 SRPM from:
http://rmrpms.tripod.com/cyrus-imapd/
That page has copious notes on building the RPM. I had no trouble
building from the source RPM on Red Hat 7.1. The command I used was:
rpm --rebuild --define 'sendmail_rhl71 1' <SRPM file name>
I have no problems authenticating with Cyrus.
