I agree. Make a copy of your master.cf and replace all '-' in the 5th
column by 'n'
Then the possible problem is that master.cf or main.cf could contains
some configuration stuff to run
in a chroot jail. run the folowing command and report the result

# postconf -n


Then in main.cf replace

mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/run/lmtp
by
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp


Restart all, and try to send an email,
look in the postfix log to see what is the next problem :-)
