I had worked with the
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/imapd/install-virtdomains.html and
had followed the steps on the configuration options on
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/imapd/install-configure.html where
it stated to insert the two lines:

  define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')
  MAILER(`cyrusv2')

And especially looked at the real time integration of checking of
receiving users (which I decided was something I would perhaps add after
I have the basic functionality working) which I why I overlooked the
obvious - the solution was exactely what you said - dont define the
confLOCAL_MAILER in the sendmail configuration to be cyrusv2.

All in all - your suggestion to remove my define(`confLOCAL_MAILER',
`cyrusv2') did the trick and it is running perfectly now.

I apologize - I was first very doubtfull about where to post as I
thought this might be more "sendmail" related than cyrus related and did
not think to reference the two.
I will keep this in mind in case I will need to do it another time - but
mostly try to not "cross-post".


Thank you for help it made my month (and not least my wife's).
