... I debated writing a gui for Cyrus for administration, but I realized that people implement Cyrus in so many different ways. Kerberos, LDAP, *SQL, various forms of PAM. Then you add in virtual domains, and how you might want alias's and might not, and different MTA support... and I just caved. Creating a basic way to support Cyrus is extremely easy in ruby, has the ability to create mailboxes easily, delete them, set permissions and set quotas. That would be the basics, but once you create a web-ui to support the basics. You could write it up in Ruby on Rails in a couple hours to cover the basics and get the job done. But it's tying the authentication system and MTA into the app that would be the hassle. :( (now I write this i don't know why I did... but I did) J.
