Postfix Snapshot 20010808 w/LDAP, MySQL, PCRE, SASL and TLS support.
Cyrus 1.6.25b w/OpenSSL

Are posted here:

<ftp://ftp.froese.org/rpms/ydl-2.0/cyrus-imapd/1.6.25b/>
<ftp://ftp.froese.org/rpms/ydl-2.0/postfix/20010808/>

NOTE: You also need PCRE for Postfix.

<ftp://ftp.froese.org/rpms/ydl-2.0/pcre/2.08/>

To do the basic install (if you have all the dependancies):

rpm -i pcre*ppc.rpm
rpm -i postfix*ppc.rpm
/etc/rc.d/init.d/postfix start
rpm -i cyrus*ppc.rpm
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart

/usr/sbin/saslpasswd -c username
Password:
Again (for verification):

You'll then see a "saslpasswd: generic failure" - that's normal - do it
again.

/usr/sbin/saslpasswd -c username
Password:
Again (for verification):

Then you can test the imap server:

[root@buzzsaw /root]# telnet localhost 143
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK buzzsaw.internal.froese.org Cyrus IMAP4 v1.6.25 server ready
. login username password
. OK User logged in
. logout
* BYE LOGOUT received
. OK Completed
Connection closed by foreign host.

Then create your mailboxes (refer to the cyrus docs for that) and you should
be off and running.

I haven't tested the LDAP, MySQL, PCRE, SASL or TLS support in Postfix but
it receives and sends basic smtp email.

Thanks to Tuomo Soini for the initial Postfix src RPMs that made this
possible.
