Kay, thanks a lot for your kind reply and your insight. I'll take a look
on some development server to see if that was my problem (data_directory
change). It is awfully non-Enterprise to do that withing the same release
(meaning 5, not re-spon 5.11). I was better opinion about RedHat team...

No it is not Selinux (which is off and I have my opinion about
Selinux...). And no, it is not main.cf, rpm does excellent job keeping
them in place and creation ...rpmnew). Thhough in this case it has been
(likely that is the case) defeated by layout of files changed...

You are right, it is dovecot SASL, not cyrus SASL.... just slip of my tongue.

Thanks again!
