What error are you seeing in syslog with this configuration?
Try running master with '-D'.

Do you see port 26 open in the output of:

netstat -an | grep LISTEN

Do you experience the same problem if you use:

lmtp          cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="lmtp" prefork=5 maxchild=200

and then update your /etc/services with an lmtp entry for port 26?
