Please find, for review, the debconf templates and packages descriptions for the cyrus-imapd-2.2 source package. This review will last from Tuesday, March 31, 2009 to Friday, April 10, 2009. Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated. Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail. When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with "[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag. When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag. Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag.

Description: Cyrus mail system - common files
Cyrus is a fully-featured IMAP daemon, with a number of features not
found in other IMAP implementations, such as:
- scalable to be able to deal with high volumes of mail;
- no need for users to have login accounts;
- virtual domain support;
- POP3 support;
- Sieve server-side email filtering;
- no need for a privileged account;
- support for mail quotas;
- SSL support, including secure IMAP;

The Cyrus::IMAP module provides an interface to the Cyrus imclient
library. These are primarily useful for implementing cyradm operations
within a Perl script; there are easier ways to implement general client
operations, although they may be more limited in terms of authentication
options when talking to a Cyrus imapd.
.
The modules that compose Cyrus::SIEVE are also included, but they are
undocumented upstream.
