Hi

Im a newbie, and im trying to setup postfix to deliver mail to cyrus, 
and i have setup this in my postfix config:

mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp

In mi maillog i get this when receiving mail:

--- maillog ---
Oct 12 13:31:28 moso postfix/lmtp[7607]: 6E60C10FC89: 
to=<soeren at localhost.moso.dk>, orig_to=<soeren at neigaard.com>, 
relay=none, delay=12, status=deferred (connect to 
/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp]: Permission denied)
--- maillog ---

So i have a permission problem, but what is it? ls -asl 
/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp gives this:

4 srwxrwxrwx  1 root root 0 Oct 12 09:09 /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp

So everyone should have write permissions, right?

imapd runs as the cyrus user.

postfix runs as the postfix user.

How would i fix this permission problem, what am i missing?
