Hi Marcel, Thanks for reply. 1) I believe that there is no local cyrus database that concerns domain conf. for the accounts (the fact is that I successfully deleted cyrus users with the "dm" command and created them again and no harm done to this user, he could log in again). Anyway, if no one give me accurate answer on it, I'll try it by myself and post here the results.
2) My point on "Allow Free Names" "Allow Free Mail Addresses" options exactly that, no one (except Luc, I think) know exactly how it works. We all can guess but the authoritative answer would be welcomed.

I would 1. backup all mails, 2. create a new account in the new domain, then delete the box from the old domain and 3. copy the backedup mails to the new box. I don't know if you only edit the ids in mysql that there is no problem with the local cyrus database. I think there coul'd be a copy method in cyradm. > > 2) I think someone already asked this question here but didn't get any > authoritative answer. > > When you create new domain, you got "Allow Free Names" "Allow Free > Mail Addresses" checkboxes. > What are their purpose exactly?

The Option free Names allows the Domainadmins to create Mailboxes and put there own names as usernames like domain.tld0001. here a domain admin can edit his own username for login to imap etc. the second Option -> Allow free Mailadresses allows the domain admin to set self the names before the "@". I think if you disable this, web-cyradm would use own named boxes and increment them with a number. I haven't tested it yet.
