John,
If you did not install in the "default" location you need to tell
cyrus.conf, sendmail.cf, and potentially imapd.conf. The first two have
the lmtp socket location hard-coded, and if you install into a different
locatin, you need to change them.
I installed into /var/imap, so I had to change the Mailer
definition, under sendmail.cf. and an entry in cyrus.conf.
Good luck,
