Any reason I shouldn't do it this way? Any better way?
The value of servername is presented after Connecting to your server. If you
move the Configuration to another Server, the real Servername and the
presented can differ. If you can live with that, this is the easiest way.
Actually, the problem is much much worse and incredibly inconsistent.
Like blow me away inconsistent.
Connect from localhost, and the realm used is the 'servername' parameter
from imapd.conf (or FQDN if unset)
Connect from another host, and the realm used is apparently derived from
the hostname! In this case, it's being set to sv.svcolo.com

Seriously, are we just making up different answers based on our mood?
Does the default realm change if the username starts with a capital letter?
This is crazy!
