I wish to use the _push_ method, as described in

I have been searching but haven't ben able to deliver NetNews via Cyrus.

imapd.conf is managed with the following lines:

partition-news: /var/spool/imap/news
newsspool: /var/spool/news
newspeer: news-in.newsfeeds.com:119 news-out.newsfeeds.com:119
newsprefix: Usenet

I then ran /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/nntpd but no articles are delivered in the correponding mailboxes e.g. Usenet/comp.mail.imap.

Please, could you help me ?

The newsspool option is deprecated and not needed.

Have you created the "Usenet.comp.mail.imap" mailbox on your "news" partition (/var/spool/imap/news) and given at least the "anonymous" user the "p" right? You probably want to grant your newsgroups "anyone lrsp".

Have you told your news provider to send you articles?

Do you have a local NNTP client that can access your Cyrus server and LIST newsgroups and POST articles (you can do this with nntptest if you know how to use NNTP manually)? If not, you need to fix this before worrying about accepting articles from the outside.
