Dan... Thanks!
A couple of follow-ups if I might (inline, below)...

Which leads to several questions:
- what's going on being the obvious one - is this a Cyrus SASL
behavior, or is there some caching going on elsewhere (i.e, by the
postfix smtpd)?
- what's the default setting for the cache timeout?
- is there a way to flush the credentials cache?
See the manpage for saslauthd, specifically the '-c' and '-t' options.
The default timeout is:
saslauthd/cache.h:#define CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT 28800
yup.. saw the man page, thanks for pointing out the default - can I
assume that's in seconds?
Restarting saslauthd should flush its cache.
That's a critical piece of info.
To better understand the scope of the problem, try trouble shooting with
imtest, smtptest, testsaslauthd (with '-s smtp', and '-s imap'), and
pamtester.
Which I had thought to do testsaslauthd differentially with -s smtp and
-s imap - to see if they gave different responses. Thanks for the
pointers to the other tools!
