Hello imappers, apparently the standard installation of cyrus imap entails changing themail config such that local delivery is performed exclusively to IMAP mailboxes.
I'm trying to configure a system on which some users should have mail delivered to IMAP mailboxes, others however to their regular unix mailboxes. I can imagine that others have also had to solve this problem, particularly considering there are some accounts that require exceptions to the usual delivery rules. In particular the "root" account springs to mind. Before I install procmail as my MDA and handle it that way, I wanted to ask this community if there is a simpler way. It would seem reasonable for "deliver" to deliver to a unix mailbox if no such cyrus user exists. Since I couldn't find anything about this in the docs, I presume it doesn't behave this way. Any comments or simpler solutions? thanks, Rob Urban
