I did the selfupdate and it still told me it can't fetch 2.3.8 - same  
errors. I did the selfupdate again and this time it worked. It  
finally connected to the server and downloaded and installed cyrus- 
imapd 2.3.8.   Thanks for your help!

Now I just gotta figure out how to get Cyrus to work with  
webmin...but that's an issue for another list. :)
