Download cyrus-imapd-X.X.X.tar.gz and cyrus-sasl-X.X.X.tar.gz (where X.X.X is the latest release) into your temporary directory. 
sasl:

  1. cd /temp
  2. tar -zxvf cyrus-sasl-X.X.X.tar.gz
  3. cd cyrus-sasl-X.X.X

  1. ./configure
  2. make
  3. make install

imapd:
./configure --with-auth=unix
useradd -g mail cyrus
passwd cyrus

  1. make depend
  2. make all CFLAGS=-O
  3. make install

  1. Edit /etc/syslog.conf and add the following lines at the bottom:

             local6.debug    /var/adm/imapd.log
             auth.debug      /var/adm/auth.log

  2. Edit a new file /etc/imapd.conf and place in it the following lines:

             configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
             partition-default: /var/spool/imap
             admins: cyrus root
             srvtab: /var/imap/srvtab
             allowanonymouslogin: no
             sasl_passwd_check: shadow




  1. mkdir /var/adm
  2. touch /var/adm/imapd.log /var/adm/auth.log
  3. mkdir /var/imap /var/spool/imap /var/imap/srvtab
  4. chown cyrus /var/imap /var/spool/imap /var/imap/srvtab
  5. chgrp mail /var/imap /var/spool/imap /var/imap/srvtab
  6. chmod 750 /var/imap /var/spool/imap /var/imap/srvtab
  7. su cyrus

You are now the user cyrus. This is necessary for the files to have the correct owner and group. Continue:

  1. tools/mkimap
  2. cd /var/lib/imap
  3. chattr +S . user quota user/* quota/*
  4. chattr +S /var/spool/imap
  5. exit

You are now root again. The last command:

chattr +S /var/spool/mqueue
