After installing a version of Cyrus that actually supports Virtual


Domains (doh!) and getting the sendmail.mc

setup properly, it looks like I got it working. I still would like to be able to get root mail accepted and sent to


the old fashioned /var/spool/mail files, but

still haven't figured that one out yet. I will keep on plugging away


at it. I tried sending it to a Cyrus

account,which I was able to do, but I couldn't get the IMAP client


configured right to login and get the mail.

Thanks everyone for your help.


Hi Chris,


Congratulations!

For sending mail to unix users, you might take a look at Andrzej's page
that he mentioned in a post yesterday:

Andrzej [en:Andrew] Adam Filip:
"I promote a few alternative ways of cyrus and sendmail integration,
all of them use local mailer for some users and curys||cyrusv2 for other
[ e.g. http://anfi.webhop.net/sendmail/localtab.html ]"

I had a look at it, and it looks slick. Although the examples seem to
presume that your default local mailer is "local" rather than "cyrusv2",
it might be able to be used in the reverse sense -- i.e. your default
local mailer is cyrusv2, and you put in the localtable something like:

root local:chris

to send root's mail to your "chris" unix account.

Andrzej, is this interpretation correct?


It is perfectly OK.

Another option is to use LOCALized version of Cyrus Aliases
http://anfi.webhop.net/sendmail/localNalias.htm

I have made a mistake (htm should be replaced by html)


http://anfi.webhop.net/sendmail/localNalias.html

[ A few persons have tried to access wrong (*.htm) URL. ]

P.S.
In bright future ahead sendmail 8.13 will use socketmap protocol [protocol to query external programs] to ask cyrus about valid mailboxes *during* smtp session [AFAIK socketmap support has been added to development version of CYRUS (CVS)]
