lmtp read error

[Sebastian Konstanty Zdrojewski]

Hi,

I am using similar conf like yours, however it runs on a Linux server. 
These are sthe config file sections I used on main.cf and cyrus.conf files:

fallback_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/imap/socket/lmtp
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/imap/socket/lmtp

and in cyrus.conf

lmtpunix      cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=1

Plus a check on the socket directory:

drwxr-xr-x    2 cyrus    mail         4096 Mar 21 12:10 socket

and inside this directory:

[root at nexus socket]# ls -l
total 0
-rw-------    1 cyrus    mail            0 Feb  5 14:32 imap.lock
srwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            0 Mar 21 12:10 lmtp
-rw-------    1 cyrus    mail            0 Feb  5 14:32 lmtpunix.lock
-rw-------    1 cyrus    mail            0 Feb  5 14:32 pop3.lock
-rw-------    1 cyrus    mail            0 Feb 21 17:41 sieve.lock

As mentioned in the readme files, the group os postfix is the same of cyrus.

This configuration works for me, I also had some problem initially but 
actually I am not experiencing problems.

Hope this can help you!

Regards,
