Hi Marco,

Thanks for including that detail.  Hopefully someone familiar with RedHat can 
chime in with some insight into the LD_PRELOAD issue!  At a guess, "preventing 
library injection from intercepting syslog calls" might be a security default 
of some sort.

Yeah, this would not really be workable, cause even though an individual 
release of Cyrus doesn't change once it's released, Cassandane changes 
constantly.  We could maybe publish such a list statically at release time, but 
it's potentially out of date days later, and it would be a headache to be 
regularly running Cassandane against all the old builds AND working out which 
new failures are "known failures" and which are "bugs in Cassandane" etc etc.

I think most people don't run Cassandane very often, so it's easier for them to 
just reach out for advice when they do.  And if you run Cassandane half a dozen 
times a day, like I do, you already know which failures can be ignored-for-now 
and which need investigation.

This one should be passing on 3.2.0, the issue above has been closed

3.2.0 passes all the imaptest-20190504 tests for me, and I don't skip any.  But 
I don't see urlauth2 or any of the -binary ones in the output, so maybe 
upstream imaptest has removed the bad tests.  (The issue quoted was reported 
for imaptest-20170719)

The rest of these look like about what I'd expect, no surprises. Whew!

Cheers,
