We are running Cyrus at PEAK.
It does some things nicely.
However, it has broken all of the procmail and .forward
based mail filtering. And so has broken many people.
I have chosen to take spam instead of moving to cyrus personally
because I process on the order of 4000 messages a day. And
with Cyrus breaking all the tools that I currently use, I would
not be able to function.
Cyrus uses a specific structure for message storage. And
as such, samba would not work underneath it.
I would leave an escape for the onid users who try to filter
mail. Loosing procmail is a big loss. The cyrus filter tools
are not nearly as flexible nor as powerful.
