rename works fine when we've used it.
You just need to make sure their new account has a password and the
same ACLs as the old account (for shared mailboxes).

Hi all
I Googled it and looked over the archives and couldn't find a
definitive answer, so I'm going to ask here...
I have a user who got married and changed her name. On the UNIX
side of things, the name change is pretty easy. I can handle this
part. The part where I'm having trouble is with the name change in
cyradm. I found the old documentation from the O'Reilly book.
However, that's apparently extremely out of date. I tried to find
an updated version of "Managing IMAP", but there is apparently not
enough call for it. I have some pretty heavy lifting to do in the
next few months and would like to have a good reference.
On a different list, someone flippantly suggested I just rename the
user in cyradm. Is this prudent? If she has a lot of sub-
mailboxes, will they all make it over in the newer versions of
cyrus? As I recall, this wasn't completely functional at the time
the book was written.
I'm running version 2.2.8 on RHEL ES3 with the 2.4.21 kernel.
TIA
