Ofcourse, and Update chroot is also yes
There's your problem, edit /etc/cyrus.conf like this # lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd -a localhost" listen="/var/spool/postfix/public/lmtp" prefork=1
why not place the following to /etc/imapd.conf lmtpsocket: /var/spool/postfix/public/lmtp
So the questions what am I not seeing here ?
You're not reading the docs on cyrus. Cyrus is opening the socket in /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp and Postfix is looking in /var/spool/postfix/public/lmtp for the socket.
That I do understand. However this yields to the point question the README.SUSE is wrong
Have you defined username-ANYTHING in cyrus? Cyrus is doing the authentication and looking for mailboxes, so if it can't find the mailbox for username-ANYTHING it can't deliver.
No and I do not intend to do so. The main logic I have is I can define any combination like user1-SUSE and user1-BANKS yet at the end of the they they all need to go to the same box user1 At the end I have solved it with defining it in the virtual table, though I am not so sure if that is the correct place to do so
Can't answer that, haven't used it, but I suspect you're reading into it more than it's intended to do. I could be wrong. Solve the connection between Postfix and Cyrus first, then go to subscribe to the postfix list and ask there. If you're expecting it to work like qmail, then you are on the wrong track, it doesn't.
I have no idea how qmail works and I am not interested in learning. I m already subscribed to postfix, nevertheless thanks for the suggestion. Since the first part was related to SuSE documentation, I thought of asking here as probably I am not the first one to run cyrus along with postfix which is chrooted Anyway thanks at least you gave me a direction to look into -- Togan Muftuoglu | Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer | Please reply to the list; http://susefaq.sf.net | Please don't put me in TO/CC.
