I go away from this plain stuff and it works via kerberos as you can see below. But my main problem is not solved. If I try to create a subfolder via my prefered imap client the fronted server also running mupdate master on it tells me "IOERROR: Mailbox name too long" I enabled telemetry logging on the frontend-master.server and it says <1397735852<7 create "user.pollaktest.testplainmboxr.jaja" >1397735852>7 NO Invalid mailbox name The problem appears after the dist-upgrade from debian squeeze to wheezy. That also means we have a newer cyrus-imapd version (2.4.16) Are there any changes concerning this problem since cyrus-imapd2.2?
