Hi. I have cyrus 2.2.12, config files I'll attach. I need plain authentication without encryption inside the Murder. I know that it's not secure but I need it because of perfomance and compatibility. Security is provided by other things. Imap protocol works with plain, I did it starting imapd with (-p 2 option ) in cyrus.conf on backend. But pop3d doesn't. I have not not tried lmtp yet but it seems the same.When I connect to frontend: Connected to wolf.mail.internal.

I don't believe that pop3d has a '-p' option. You can steal the appropriate code from imapd.c and apply it to pop3d.c. 'lmtpd -a' *may* work for you, otherwise you'll have to patch lmtpd.c with the '-p' code from imapd.c.
