This is my planned usage.  I am migrating mail services from one machine 
to another on a different network, and would like to just move delivery 
of messages to the new machine while DNS info updates.    However, I am 
having troubles getting lmtpd to listen to anything.

This is my prefered method once all mail is accepted by the local MTA. 
 However, sockets don't seem to be working either.

I have tried configuring lmtp via tcp listening on both 
localhost(127.0.0.1) and the public interface.  I would prefer not to 
use the public interface for long as it poses some security risks.  Both 
configurations result in a "read error" message from the MTA.

 I have also tried using sockets, but get a "connection refused error". 
 What could possible causes be?  

As far as system setup goes,  I am running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE, and have 
built both postfix and all Cyrus software from the ports collection.  Is 
there an incompatiblity with any of this?  It would be great if all I 
needed was to rev a version.  Is there a configuration option I should 
check?  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If anyone has Cyrus + Postfix 
running on a FreeBSD 4.7 box, I'd like to hear how you have it configured.
