Since you're using my cyrus-imapd rpms and I guess you are using the
postfix from RH9, permission should not be a problem here. I think your
problem is that postfix lmtp runs chrooted. Maybe you just to change
this in master.cf so postfix/lmtp doesn't run chrooted:

#
==========================================================================
# service type  private unpriv  chroot  wakeup  maxproc command + args
#               (yes)   (yes)   (yes)   (never) (100)
#
==========================================================================
lmtp      unix  -       -       n       -       -       lmtp
