I was more forced to switch.  I upgraded from Red Hat 7.1 to Fedora 
Core.  When I did that the Washington IMAP was apparently ripped-out by 
the roots and Cyrus was plopped down in its place.

I tried, unsuccessfully, to install it from the source when I started 
running into authentication troubles with Cyrus.  I then buckled-down 
and schlogged through the SASL2 morass and the importing issues already 
described. 

I haven't had it working long enough to have an opinion other than it 
_seems_ to be quicker from click to message display than Washington.

Having all folders hung off of "INBOX" is a little strange too, but I'll 
get used to it.
