It is trying to login with what's entered in config/conf.php in
the $CYRUS array. And the PASS needs to match what's in the
"accountuser" table for the user listed in the $CYRUS array.

So, suppose that there's:

$CYRUS = array(
         'HOST'  => 'localhost',
         'PORT'  => 143,
         'ADMIN' => 'cyrus',
         'PASS'  => 'Geheim'     // Kennwort aus der "accountuser" Tabelle
);

Then the entry in the "pass" column for the "cyrus" user in
accountuser, needs to be ENCRYPT("Geheim").
