I would guess that the Dovecot example should work. What's referred to as an Administrator should be the equivalent of a proxyservers entry in imapd.conf. e.g.: proxyservers: mailadmin For the proxy authentication to work, you will need to enable sasl authentication, and offer a mechanism which supports it: http://www.cyrussasl.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/mechanisms.php -- Dan White Thanks very much Dan, it is working now. After enabling SASL and adding the superuser account to proxyservers in imapd.conf I was able to format the CSV file using the Microsoft example. So for anyone who comes across the problem, this is the CSV format that did the trick. EmailAddress,UserName,Password,UserRoot student1@xxxxxxxxxx,superuser,password,studentaccount1 student2@xxxxxxxxxx,superuser,password,studentaccount2 student3@xxxxxxxxxx,superuser,password,studentaccount3 You saved me an awful lot of time, so thanks again. ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
