Make sendmail reject messages to non existing cyrus mailboxes in reply
to "RCPT TO:" command in SMTP session. It makes host sending you the
message responsible for generating bounce message.

Take a look at solutions described at
 http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/#cyrus
* I suggest "Cyrus Aliases" in virtusertable or aliases for small sites
  or sites with stable list of user mailboxes.
* Otherwise consider deploying "Real Time Cyrus Integration Version 2".
  (RTCyrus2).

P.S.
RTCyrus3 is under development 
 http://groups-beta.google.com/group/cyrus-sendmail
Testers are welcomed.
