Just to add what Simon has said, the cyrus admin command is called
'cyradm', at least on my system.
Regarding the location of the mailboxes, once you've created them,
they're in subdirectories of the directory specified by the
'configdirectory' option in imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/imap
As to how to read the mailboxes:
- Each email is stored in a separate file in the mailbox directory. You
can read the raw data using cat / more / less
- If you want to read the formatted messages, you'll want to attach your
IMAP or POP3 client to the server.
