Noted with thanks.

$ cat /etc/cyrus.conf | grep socket
# UNIX sockets start with a slash and are absolute paths
        # (you must keep the Unix socket name in sync with imap.conf)
        lmtpunix        cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp"
prefork=0 maxchild=20
        notify          cmd="notifyd"
listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
* end *


Would it be /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp ?


$ sudo ls -la /var/run/cyrus/socket | grep lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root  0 2008-06-09 21:26 lmtp


$ sudo ls -la /var/run/cyrus/socket/
total 0
drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus mail 80 2008-06-09 21:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus mail 60 2008-06-09 21:26 ..
srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root  0 2008-06-09 21:26 lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root  0 2008-06-09 21:26 notify
* end *


How to link it to postfix config?  Thanks
