Heh, I hate to tell you this, but you didn't need it.  SquirrelMail does
not use PHP's IMAP routines.  We rolled our own.

It all depends on where Cyrus is getting the authentication information. 
Cyrus uses SASL, which has about a million different possibilities.  It's
really a broad topic, so you're going to need to do some research in that
department.

To simplify your debugging, I suggest using telnet or cyrus's imtest
program until you're sure you've got authentication working properly. 
Then add the next layer of complexity, which in this case would be
SquirrelMail.

For your reference, here's what a telnet session would look like with a
successful IMAP login.
