The 'w' flag for the mailer says to make sure that all users it
accepts mail for are in /etc/passwd.
You'll probably need to remove it.
Fortunately or unfortunately, this will also disable ~/.forward file
processing. Since we don't use .forward file processing, it will be
hard for me to immediately tell you how to make both work.

Okay, we just did that and we are still having problems. Mail can be
delivered to the INBOX just fine, but a "user+mbox@address" causes a
user unknown error and bounces the message back.
Can you tell us exactly what your sendmail configuration is?
This is what our cyrus section is in sendmail.cf:
Mcyrus, P=[IPC], F=lsDFMnqAw@/:|SmXz, E=\r\n,
S=EnvFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
U=cyrus:mail, A=FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp
Also, attached is the actual MC file we are using to create our
sendmail.cf file. Any help is greatly appreciated! We are in a lurch
with a partial upgrade and a slightly broken email delivery system :-(
