I believe you, I'm not getting it...

from servers.php

$servers['cyrus'] = array(
snip...
    'admin' => array(
        'params' => array(
            'login' => 'cyrus',
            'password' => 'MY_PASS',
            'userhierarchy' => 'user.',
            'protocol' => 'imap/notls',
            'hostspec' => 'localhost',
            'port' => 143

this ain't rocket science

and it shows this error in /var/log/messages
Feb 15 17:51:39 srv1 imap(pam_unix)[22355]: authentication failure;
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost=  user=cyrus
Feb 15 17:51:42 srv1 saslauthd[22355]: do_auth         : auth failure:
[user=cyrus] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error]

I have changed saslauthd 'MECH' from "shadow" to "pam" as shown above,
but it has made no difference.

and users can log onto imap - no problem either and they are getting
mail, etc. - the only thing that seems to be affected is 'enumerating
users / quotas'
