Hi folks,
Sorry for bothering you. I found the solution for my problem just now!
The point is to tell sendmail to pass _ALL_ mail that can't be deliverd
locally to cyrus.
So (see below) I inserted the line
define(`LUSER_RELAY', `cyrus:localhost')dnl
into my mc file and everything works fine.
---------------------------------------------------------
VERSIONID(`@(#)mozart.mc based on main-v7sun.mc V1.0 03/04/2002')
OSTYPE(solaris2)dnl
DOMAIN(mydomain)dnl
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
define(`confTO_IDENT',`0')dnl
define(`LUSER_RELAY', `cyrus:localhost')dnl
MAILER_DEFINITIONS
Mcyrus, P=[IPC], F=lsDFMnqA5@/:|SmXz, E=\r\n,
S=EnvFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix,
A=FILE /var/imap/conf/socket/lmtp
LOCAL_RULE_0

test test_user works fine since test_user exists in cyrus (mailbox, sasldb
entry..) mails -s test root returns 550 >"User unknown" (neither mailbox nor
sasldb entry)
