If thats not possible, how about setting up a new temporary directory

cyrus to it until after the transition, then point it back?

For instance:

dep1.rutgers.edu (Cyrus domain)
But the actual domain users send mail to is something like:

foo.rutgers.edu...

I've heard this can be done...but how exactly? Does it have something

Jeremy,
I forgot to mention I am also converting the mailboxes.db file to a flat file.
This should help as well. I am a little hesitant to use skip list right now.
These are production boxes.

Greetings,
Does anyone know if the Sasl patch from Sourceforge (Simon & Menard)
supports recursive LDAP searching capabilities - or simply single
context searching.
I am interesting in a sasl-ldap patch that will traverse a hierarchy.
Anyone know of such?
Thanks for your help.

Do the regexs in sieve support checking the body of a message, or just the

or your use.) I have thoroughly tested this
configuration on a server, and everything works well (and fast!) You
can now have 2 users with the same username, in different contexts of an
LDAP directory, and host both of their mailstores on the same system,
without delivery or authentication problems. In addition, all the user
needs to do is specify email server, smtp server, and username (without
fqd or appending anything to it.) We already had a complete
infrastructure in place, and needed a way to integrate Cyrus IMAP
functionality to our setup, without having to modify or add anything to
our Novell NDS directory.
If anyone has any suggestions about how I could improve this design, I
would be happy to hear. Hopefully, someone will find this method
useful. When I have some time, I will write up a more complete
document.

A quick question...
We downloaded the patches form Openldap.org, but looking at the source, there are no
provisions to pass ldap_server or ldap_basedn. Am I missing something here? The
code in the pwcheck_ldap.c suggests that you need to hard-code the ldap information
in, then compile.
