hi Andrzej and Everybody

Thank you for the reply.

This is what I did.

Installed procmail.

In my server.example.com.mc file, I  added 
FEATURE(local_procmail_lmtp)   
define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')
MAILER(`cyrusv2')
define(`CYRUS_MAILER_FLAGS','A5 at W')


In my /usr/share/sendmail/cf/mailer/cyrusv2.m4 file,
I modified ifdef(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS',, `define(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS', 
`FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp')')
to
ifdef(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS',, `define(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS', `procmail 
-p /usr/local/etc/procmailrc CYR
USUSER=$u')')

and modified
Mcyrusv2,       P=[IPC], F=_MODMF_(CONCAT(_DEF_CYRUSV2_MAILER_FLAGS, 
CYRUSV2_MAILER_FLAGS), `CYRUSV2'), ...
 to:
 Mcyrusv2,       P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, 
F=_MODMF_(CONCAT(_DEF_CYRUSV2_MAILER_FLAGS, CYRUSV2_MAILER_F
LAGS), `CYRUSV2'), ....

After doing a make, make install in /etc/mail.
my /etc/mail/server.example.com.cf file has this
Mcyrusv2,       P=/usr/local/bin/procmail, F=lsDFMnqXzA@/:|m,
                S=EnvFromSMTP/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, E=\r\n,
                T=DNS/RFC822/SMTP,
                A=procmail -p /usr/local/etc/procmailrc CYRUSUSER=$u

My /usr/local/etc/procmailrc file reads:
/usr/local/cyrus/bin/deliver -a $CYRUSUSER -m user.$CYRUSUSER


But I cannot send anything to my users.
Got this message in the /var/log/maillog

My Sendmail/Cyrus was working fine before I did all this procmail 
modifications.

Can anybody help?

Thank you very much in anticipation.
