Well I've solved my problem.  Thank you everyone who has tried to help.

The problem seems that lmtp from cyrus-imap 2.0.16 does not like to talk 
on FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE.  I updated to 2.1.12 and got that working.  I 
also updated Cyrus-SASL to 2.1.12 for good measure.  The only thing that 
seems to be strange now is that I no longer can see folders that I had 
under inbox.  Maybe after a reconstruct I will have it.
