Simple and basic setup NEED: use virtusertable within Sendmail so that
the MTA already knows about valid mailboxes. Else spam with faked sender
addresses hits innocent third and you soon may get blacklisted.
Or setup real time interaction between Sendmail and Cyrus-IMAPd with one
of the solutions Andrzej kindly documented:

P.S: The proper mailinglist for Cyrus-IMAPd questions would be cyrus-info
