Hello!

Your packag depends on postfix | mail-transport-agent. Exim (v4) is generally
considered the default mta in Debian and is also the package providing
mail-transport-agent which has the highest priority.
Is there any particular reason why your package needs to deviate from
which mta is pulled in by default? If not, could you please consider
streamlining your package with the rest so we have a uniform behaviour in
debian?

I'm guessing that postfix is there for hysterical raisins. I do know that everybody on the packaging team does use postfix so that may be it.

I really think this bug doesn't matter as Cyrus is a mail server, and needs the MTA to be configured. I find it extremely unlikely that anyone running a mail server is just going to use whatever installing Cyrus brings in. Since the admin is going to manually install one and the "| m-t-a" is there, I don't think this is really a bug, but I'm just going to knock the severity down until others have a chance to comment. (really, I think it should be wishlist, but I'll compromise with you and drop it to minor).
