Cyrus IMAP, sendmail and LDAP

[AJ]

Thanks.  I have reviewed the sendmail page numerous times, but my 
question is what is the difference between the way I have things set up 
now, i.e just using cyrus as a local mailer, as opposed to ldap_routing.
I am not sure why one would go one way or the other, just trying to clarify.

Thanks.
