I've finally been able to track down the problem to this: the mailboxes are 
being created as user.username which results in a directory user.username 
being created and the mailbox being added to a DB file (as far as I can see 
from the source code). However, lmtpd is looking for user^username (^ 
instead of . as the seperator). Why is Cyrus trying to use another 
seperator when delivering incoming messages?
