 So socketmap daemon works as expected.
 
 Sendmail's maps traditionally turn looked up key into lowercase.
 It can be (usually) turned off by adding -f switch to map definition.
 [ I have reported missing -f in socket as bug myself :-) ]
 

Thanks ! It works now that I have added the -f swith to Kcyrus in
mrs_cyrus m4.

 What about imapd and pop3d daemons, which also consume resources?
 Are limits a good idea here too?  Users will complain to the help

I typically set the lmtpd limits very low, i.e., just above  
provisioned demand, because, as you say, inbound mail can queue.   
Setting imapd  popd limits at somewhat higher than peek demand  
causes a fairly user friendly service degradation: mail delivery more  
or less stops, mail reading can continue, but that too will stop  
before load is so bad that nothing can be done.  I also tend to  
actively monitor server load, so in extreme situations I can, e.g.,  
stop or severely limit mail delivery or other lesser services to  
favor more important services.  At some point, tho, you just need to  
add more capacity.
