How do I get sendmail to store mails on cyrus?

[Søren Neigaard]

Yes true, sorry about that guys - I will try and test before asking again ;)
Im just trying to learn the concepts at the same time as learning the
details on the products, and I get confused every 5 minutes or so :D

Oh I would love to hire some expert to do this work for me, if only that was
an option...

Søren, just about all Linux/Unix systems have some differences in
paths and names, there is no guide you can follow without making
apropriate changes required for your system. For example on my
system the file is /var/imap/socket/lmtp

I suggest that you try make a clever guess, see if it works, and
if not then write. Otherwise you will find yourself recieving a
lot of RTFM responses. If you don't like that approach consider
paying a profesional to walk you through the setup.

Note: Better start setup some mailaccounts first, redirecting
all mail to imap with no mail accounts will result in the mail
being rejected.
