Python stuff for cyrus imapd

[sasl module]

To compile saslmodule for 1.x [deprecated]:

make -f Makefile.pre.in boot && make

saslmodule for 2.x is python native

Usage:

from Sasl import createuser, deleteuser, setpass (for sasl 1.x)
or
from Sasl2 import createuser, deleteuser, setpass (for sasl 2.x)

createuser(user, password)
deleteuser(user)
setpass(user, password)

Sasl2 only:
getuser(user)
getuserlist()

Note since there is a bug in sasl1, I suggest you to create sasldb adding at least one entry before using this module, even saslpasswd will segfault when the first user is added.

[skiplist recovery tool]

Tool to recover corrupted cyrus imapd skiplist files by converting to flat format

Usage:

skiplist.py corrupted.seen > seen.txt
/usr/sbin/cvt_cyrusdb _full_path_/seen.txt flat _full_path_/repaired.seen skiplist

[cyruslib]

cyruslib is wrapped interface for imaplib.py, it adds support for cyrus specific commands. Function naming is the same of cyradm

Note: you can find an updated fork here http://python-cyrus.sourceforge.net/

Usage:

import cyruslib
m = cyruslib.CYRUS()
m.login("cyrus", "mypass")

now m.m is an IMAP4 instance so you can use same method of IMAP4 from imaplib.py
plus:
getsep()                         - Gets mailbox separator . or /
getacl(mailbox)                  - Gets acls on a mailbox
setacl(mailbox, id, acl)         - Sets acl for id on a mailbox
getquota(mailbox)                - Gets quota value for a mailbox
setquota(mailbox, type, limit)   - Sets quota for a mailbox, type should be STORAGE and limit is the quota value

There are also some high level functions:

login/logout
cm(group, username)              - Creates a mailbox
dm(group, username)              - Deletes a mailbox
lm()                             - Lists mailboxes (returns a dict with groups)
lam(group, username)             - Lists acls on a mailbox (returns a dict)
sam(group, username, id, rights) - Sets acls on a mailbox for id
lq(group, username)              - Gets quota for a mailbox
sq(group, username, limit)       - Sets quota for a mailbox

example:
m.cm("user", "sherpya")
m.lm()
m.sq("user", "sherpya", 10000)
m.lq("user", "sherpya")
m.sam("user","sherpya", "cyrus", "c") # needed to delete a mailbox
m.dm("user", "sherpya")
