Interesting. I checked the webpage of Debian, Ubuntu and could not find 
any information. Nevertheless, I am not a fan of Debian or Ubuntu 
(especially Ubuntu due to lack of updates) and prefer generally rolling 
releases. But that is just a side remark.

The old addons are not working with the current version of Thunderbird 
and sieve scripts are nothing I can hand over to my users. And honestly 
I do not want to be the one switching this all the time for all users.

- Only INBOX is show, including TRASH/SENT/DRAFT but no other folder of 
that account
- Shared folders are not show
- Postboxes cannot be configures (e.g. rights for other users for the 
access of joint mailboxes
- Auto-replys cannot be configured (time out)
- Server-side filters cannot be configures (time out)

I configured the new sieve port (4190) but no change.

Okay, I will have a look at that.

Insufficient documentation. I cannot find how to use it, preferably in a 
form of a "howto". I only finde the manual page on the cyrus website. Is 
there a howto or so?

Not in Aarch unfortunetly.

Will checkou the Git repository.
Thankyou.

Best regards
