the master.cfg (?) file for postfix says to change the default mailbox
delivery
rule to 'cyrus' to deliver imap mail. Unfortunately, that requires a
binary that
doesn't exist (/usr/cyrus/deliver, or some such). Put it another way: by
default, postfix seems to deliver POP mail. What needs to be changed to
provide IMAP services? The doc files for postfix are not very helpful to
that end.
