Abstract
The following sections provide information on installing Cyrus IMAP. It is expected that most people will be able to use binary packages (or rebuilt source packages) for their distribution; however, basic instructions for installing from source are included.
The homepage is currently located at: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/imapd
You will need both IMAP and SASL. Download the latest files here:
ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/cyrus-mail
Download cyrus-imapd-X.X.X.tar.gz
and cyrus-sasl-X.X.X.tar.gz (where X.X.X
is the latest release) into your temporary directory.
I will use /tmp as the directory
I've uncompressed the files under for the rest of the
examples.
