Well, considering how well calendaring is implemented, along with contact

Now, Outlook Express? That works, quite handily.

Look into how your OS restricts logins. No doubt pam or whatever can be
configured to specifically deny non-localhost logins to that account. Most
handle root this way too.

hink.
Unfortunately you may be correct. Which may lead me back to using pam_mysql
via saslauthd. Six steps forward, eight steps back, it seems. Here I was
thinking it'd be more efficient to call SQL directly, but n! Yeesh.
Of course by using PAM I get stuck not being able to use cha
ress? While I've gotten auth
working I haven't actually gone to the next step to see that it's actually
'linking up' with an actual mailbox within cyrus.

passes a realm onto the SQL select query.
Is it not possible to pass an unqualified name? What config
Would this help your reverse DNS lookup trouble? Or will using the
unqualified name still trigger a reverse lookup?
It doesn't appear to help my situation, in that I'd like logins without a

Is this possible?

One idea that comes to mind would be to use something like imapsync to move
them. There may be other ways to move them around but if they're mail and
you have two accounts then it might work.
But it really depends on what is you're trying to do. Can you describe the
problem better
solve the problem. Some are good for really
BIG migrations and others are well suited for quick hacks.

We are currently moving away from a POP3-based system (QuickMail Pro server

I think it's a case to too many HOWTO docs spanning too many different
versions all adding up to a mess.
I sort of like how pam_mysql has logging options. Thus I thought using
saslauthd and on to pam was the right means to maintain that functionality.

Good tip on using sed to edit them in place. I'd used grep with

complete but it saves me from having to reload it all should something have
gone horribly wrong. Six of one, half dozen of the oth

what got left behind. But before I turn it loose with the delete option I'd
