Hi There,

Here is what I use.

I have added a user in WGM named ‘mailadmin’ given the user a password and enabled mail for this user.

Then you add this user (mailadmin) to the list of cyrus admins. This is done by editing the imapd.conf file in /etc/ (/etc/imapd.conf).

My line would look like this:
admins: cyrus, mailadmin

Save the file.

Then you should be able to use cyradm with:
cyradm -u mailadmin localhost

The password is the password that you set for mailadmin.

Hope that helps.

Regards,

G

Hey,

You should be receiving mail for these accounts (or root) as your self. Make sure you have done this.

sudo vi /etc/postfix/aliases

You should see the following a few lines down
…
# Person who should get root’s mail. Don’t receive mail as root!
#root: you
…

Uncomment the second line and replace “you” with your short name.
Exit and Save

Then run newaliases:
sudo newaliases

Explore the aliases file to understand what you are doing here – it is pretty straight forward.

Try sending a message to root and or postmaster at this point.
