Now we use Webmin to create and manage Cyrus mailboxes, quotas, and so on. Saslauthd authenticates against LDAP (recently migrated to Active Directory). Postfix uses the AD server to distribute mail to groups. Users manage their sieve scripts via a Roundcube plugin. We have to manually synchronize Cyrus mailboxes with AD accounts when we create or delete users, but otherwise all the pieces fit together very well. -- Jules Agee System Administrator Pacific Coast Feather Co. julesa@xxxxxxx x284 ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
