    there seems to be a default auxprop, because saslauthd was configured to
    use pam, not sasldb2.

    There is a lot of mystical in Cyrus, especially because it lacks
    sufficient documentation. I know that programmers don't like to document
    what they worked on, but for new users it is very hard and cumbersome to
    get the information and examples that are required to understand Cyrus
    at least partially from widespread mailinglist posts, some outdated
    howtos in the web and some cyrus manpages.

    Regards
    Marten
