Cyrus IMAP OGO authentication problems for some users on openSuSE 10.3

I started checking the IMAP integration in my SuSE install, and it appears 
to be broken.  I can send mail from inside OGO and it reaches the outside 
world (via postfix).  Cyrus is installed and running, and I can do 'telnet 
localhost imap' and get a response from cyrus.

 In the dock it says "Email (inactive)", and when I click on the 'Inbox' I 
see a warning "couldn't login to host: localhost".

I checked in /var/log/messages and here is the error message for user2:

May 21 10:19:48 li24-226 imap[5691]: accepted connection
May 21 10:19:48 li24-226 imap[5691]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] 
plaintext user2 SASL(-13): user not found: checkpass failed

I used the sasl tools to add a user to the sasldb manually:
li24-226:~ # saslpasswd2 -c user1

When I login to the webui of OGO using user1, I can indeed see an inbox 
for this user and not surprisingly /var/log/messages outputs: 

May 21 10:18:43 li24-226 imap[5691]: accepted connection
May 21 10:18:43 li24-226 imap[5691]: login: localhost [127.0.0.1] user1 
plaintext User logged in

This suggests to me that OGO is not creating entries in the sasldb for 
users who are created through OGO.  Maybe I have misunderstood user 
administration in OGO and mail users must be created separately?

For completeness of information, this is what /etc/imapd.conf looks like:

li24-226:~ # more /etc/imapd.conf
autocreatequota: 10000
reject8bit: no
quotawarn: 90
timeout: 30
poptimeout: 10
dracinterval: 0
drachost: localhost
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_plugin_auxprop: sasldb
lmtp_overquota_perm_failure: no
lmtp_downcase_rcpt: yes


And I believe I've put the relevant key values into the Defaults.  Here's 
the output from Defaults read:

ogo@li24-226:~> Defaults read
{
    "ogo-nhsd-1.1" = {
        NGBundlePath = "%{ogo_env_prefix";
    };
    Defaults = {};
    NSGlobalDomain = {
        "imap_host" = localhost;
        "imap_port" = 143;
        "skyrix_id" = "li24-226";
        LSConnectionDictionary = {
            databaseName = OGo;
            hostName = "127.0.0.1";
            password = "";
            port = 5432;
            userName = OGo;
        };
        LSNewsImagesPath = "/var/lib/opengroupware.org/news";
        LSNewsImagesUrl = "/ArticleImages";
        Languages = (
            English
        );
        TimeZoneName = GMT;
        UseSkyrixLoginForImap = YES;
        WOHttpAllowHost = (
            localhost,
            "127.0.0.1",
            "localhost.localdomain"
        );
    };
    skyaptnotify = {
        AptNotifyFromAdress = "ogo@li24-226";
        AptNotifySentResourcesFile = 
"/var/log/opengroupware/sent-resources";
        AptNotifySkyrixPassword = "";
        AptNotifySkyrixUser = root;
        AptNotifyVerbose = NO;
    };
}

Hope someone else can shed some light on this.
