My main reason for selecting cyrus over courier is that cyrus is able to
receive mail via lmtp as well as smtp, using a local socket for lmtp. The
reason that is useful is that I retrieve mail from my outside maildrops using
fetchmail, and fetchmail can deliver the mail to cyrus via lmtp so I don't
need to run an smtp server at all. If you are already running smtp, that may
be a less important feature for you.
I've been using courier about 6 months & I love it. I'm not sure what the lmtp you use is, but I use fetchmail & maildrop to grab mail from external POP3 accounts - it works very well.
I simply use this line at the start of my .fetchmailrc: mda "/usr/bin/maildrop -d $USER"
Hence no local socket delivery system is required.
