You would make the final step call Cyrus' "deliver" program to inject the 
mail into Cyrus.

However, it is recommended instead to use Cyrus' Sieve filtering instead. 
Here at OSU, our mail relays accept mail from the outside world, run it 
through amavisd (which runs it through Spam Assassin), and then send the 
mail on to Cyrus over LMTP.  We pre-create Sieve rules for our users that 
discard mail with a Spam Assassin score over 10, and filter scores over 5 
into a junk-mail folder.
