I've had a problem that might be in under FBSD 3.5stable.
I haven't implemented Cyrus yet, but under load testing I
see a large number of sendmail processes that are in a
"Client Greeting" state. I presume that sendmail is trying
to talk to lmtpd and not getting a response.
I've gotten around the problem by using the "O DeliveryMode=q"
option in the cf that that has been mentioned here several times.
