Sendmail no delivering to imap inbox

Hi
I'm having some problems making sendmail and cyrus working together.
Sendmail won't or can't deliver the inbound mails to the user's inbox.
The mail ends up in /var/spool/mqueue/q9SD....  and I just get a message
in /var/log/maillog:

Oct 28 14:05:56 tourist sendmail[1402]: g9SD5tF01400:
to=<peter at tourist.stockholmopen.net>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00,
mailer=cyrus, pri=30849, relay=localhost, dsn=4.2.0, stat=Deferred: 451
4.3.2 cannot create temporary file: File exists:

It just says "cannot create temporary file: File exist:", Has anyone seen
this before? My imapd.conf looks like this:

configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
admins: cyrus root
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd

And my sendmail.mc:

divert(0)dnl
VERSIONID(`$Id: cyrusproto.mc,v 8.7 1999/09/07 14:57:10 ca Exp $')

                A=FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp
LOCAL_RULE_0
Rbb + $+ < @ $=w . >    $#cyrusbb $: $1

I have çreated the mailbox for the user peter by cyradm: cm user.peter and
can login locally to the imap server with pine.
I'm using cyrus 2.1.19 and the sendmail that was shipped with RH 7.3.
Help much appreciated!

/Peter
