I look forward to the day when he switches back to thunderbird and be able to fix the problem.

cyrus-imap authorization confusion
I see in the documents mention of the four types of authorization supported by Cyrus-IMAP. I also see a --with-auth compile option in older versions that no longer appear in newer versions. I understand that authentication is handled by Cyrus-SASL. Is authorization now also handled also by Cyrus-SASL with userid and authid being equal?

Re: Inaccessible emails
Outlook is known to have the same problem with large mailboxes. Large as in many messages, not bytes. Recommend keeping inbox under 15,000 messages, so the client can maintain its local index file without corruption. He may ignore you, and when he gets tired of the failures then he will change. It's not a cyrus problem. Cyrus's capacity exceeds that of all the popular clients.
