Hello,

I am trying to set up a mail system that should store all informations in a 
MySQL Database. postfix etc. is set up and seems to work just fine, also 
cyrus seems to be configured correctly and a database has been created etc.
My system is a debian woody installation, with the cyrus, postfix packages / 
everything needed to set up this system.
I have set up a domain, and a user account for testing (server0001) in the 
first place. Sending mails itself works - what does not work is receiving 
mails in this system. The point of failure seems to be cyrdeliver. As soon as 
postfix receives a message following is printed in syslog:

I have tried to figure out what the problem was, but could not find any 
answers. I have followed the debian tutorial very closely, the one you can 
find at
http://www.web-cyradm.org/debian/
but no success so far. I have never heard of anything special you have to do 
to the deliver or, under debian cyrdeliver part. If I understand this system 
correctly, the deliver *should* consult the mysql database about whether a 
mailbox exists or not.

This is the bounce I received:

Any clue on what could have been done wrong is greatly appreciated.
