No, it doesn't.

My bad. I didn't mean to include that. I was going to query the Postfix 
list with that error. There is a nobody user. Also, from the Postfix manual:

default_privs (default: nobody)

The default rights used by the local(8) delivery agent for delivery to 
external file or command. These rights are used when delivery is 
requested from an aliases(5) file that is owned by root, or when 
delivery is done on behalf of root.

Strange. This isn't a new install, but that error is.

You're asking me? I haven't a clue. ;-)

As I said, I don't have a directory at /var/run/cyrus, and I've no idea 
why deliver is looking for one. But I am wondering if it has something 
to do with the Postfix default_privs error, above.

No, nothing at all. Disk space is fine--17GB of space.

OS is Ubuntu (9.04-x86). Kernel 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5.028stab070.7

However ... this is a VPS. I just logged in to the HyperVM cp and saw 
that the resources for disk & inodes are empty, and it's showing 
(erroneous, imho) errors about being over quota for both. I've contacted 
support to ask them to look into it. Maybe the trouble is in there.
