Re: Bug#230077: cyrus21-imapd: IPv6 support broken

The problem turned out to be a documentation problem. cyrus knows about
services "tcp", "tcp4" and "tcp6". "tcp6" means IPv6 only and not both
IPv4 and IPv6 as the submitter expected. Changing the service from "tcp6"
to "tcp" fixed the problem. The current version of cyrus IMAP in Debian
has a better documentation in the man page.

Thanks,
