This will never will work; it does not have suid permission.

Revert to what the Readme file tells you to:

-r-sr-x---   1 cyrus  www    3368  8 Nov 08:19 chgsaslpasswd

You do NOT want www in your cyrus group.  Period.

You can get the script's error output if you run it from the command line:

/usr/local/bin/sudo -u www chgsaslpasswd -p <username>
<password>
