there is a proc directory in your cyrus folder that lists which users
are logged in through which imap process.
You can look in there. You might also want to check if the user has
any shared mailboxes that other users are accessing.
As for preventing the user from logging you can temporarily disable
their password (at least thats what we've done with kerberos)

Simon,
How do you know if a user is logged in?

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that's apparently extremely out of date.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.
You need 'allowusermoves: yes' in /etc/imapd.conf to make renaming
work.
Then, when you rename, make absolutely sure the user is not logged in
while renaming in cyradm.
