I'm running posfix/cyrus/mysql on SuSE 9.0.
I can't connect to an account where the user name is not also a UNIX user (in /etc/passwd). This is driving me nuts. If I create a UNIX user, the authentication works fine. I deleted the user and now I get in /var/log/messages:
May 8 16:58:52 yoda imapd[2821]: Login disabled user=farmerg

Because Suse uses as default saslauthd with pam as backend. This is configured in /etc/imapd.conf as "sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd".
Where do you want your user-accounts instead?
I need to do this because different accounts have different user email addresses for sending. If an email client could have different send-from addresses based on folder, then this wouldn't be an issue, however Mozilla doesn't do this, and I don't know of a client that does.
