I think the actual syntax would be:
sasl_pop_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_pop_auxprop_plugin: sasldb
The documentation (which needs improvement, and since you're getting
free help on the cyrus list I hope you'll open a bugzilla with some
suggested improvements) is mostly in the imapd.conf man page. In
particular:
sasl_option: 0
Any SASL option can be set by preceding it with
"sasl_". This
file overrides the SASL configuration file.
There are a couple of other examples, e.g.:
sasl_pwcheck_method: <none>
The mechanism used by the server to verify plaintext
passwords.
Possible values include "auxprop", "saslauthd", and
"pwcheck".
What's mentioned in the SASL documentation (which is considerably
worse than the IMAP documentation, IMHO) is that you can put the
service name between sasl_ and _option. Also missing is what Cyrus
IMAP uses for the service names -- I looked in the code to decide
that "pop" was probably right and "pop3" is probably wrong.
