Inclusion of cyrus-imapd and mimedefang

[Howard Owen]

Building cyrus imapd from source isn't all that bad. But
you also need sasl2. For my RH 7.3 setup I installed cyrus-sasl-2.1.13 
with a  simple ./configure;make;make install. For cyrus-imapd-2.1.12, it
was ./configure  --with-krb=no --with-auth=unix;make;make install

You then have to create /etc/sasldb2 and add at least one user/password 
with saslpasswd2. Finally, chown cyrus /etc/sasldb2. Set your saslauth
scheme in /etc/imapd.conf and your authentication is set.
