Adam,
In your cyrus.conf file, uncomment the lmtp setting and make sure it
looks like this:
lmtp cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="localhost:lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20
That way you dont have to authenticate with a real user. Also, here is
the way I tested with lmtptest and it worked for me:
debian:~# lmtptest -p 2003 -u postdrop -v localhost
>mail from:<someuser at somedomain.tld>
>rcpt to:<user at domain2.tld>
>data
>test
>.
>quit
you might get some error about invalid headers, thats b/c you don't have
the proper headers set, but it will deliver the mail anyway. Hope this
helps!
Jarod
