From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-DE; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: Using Sendmail together with Cyrus-IMAPd requires at least the 3 following lines in the sendmail.mc as basis for the sendmail.cf: define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')dnl define(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS', `FILE /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp')dnl MAILER(cyrusv2)dnl Those will generate the necessary entries in the sendmail.cf to use Cyrus-IMAPd as the local mailer. Very important is the second line, setting the path to the lmtp socket. By default the cyrusv2.mv macro (usr/share/sendmail-cf/mailer/cyrusv2.m4) points to: FILE /var/imap/socket/lmtp while the Cyrus-IMAPd cyrus-imapd-2.2.3-10 has its socket directory /var/lib/imap/socket and therefor it is essential to define the correct socket path. The 3 given sendmail.mc lines should at least be in sendmail.mc as commented lines to make it easy to activate the combination Sendmail and Cyrus-IMAPd. The site http://anfi.homeunix.net/cyrus/#sendmail has more cyrus macros - offered to the sendmail.org staff, but yet not official part of the Sendmail distribution. Those macros take care for the new features of Cyrus-IMAPd version 2.2.x with virtual domain support. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sendmail-cf-8.12.11-4.6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. by default Sendmail misses any knowledge about Cyrus-IMAPd 2. 3. Actual Results: the combination would fail and mail is lost if having Sendmail and Cyrus-IMAPd installed Expected Results: Sendmail should have pre-definitions for the use of Cyrus-IMAPd (sieve) as the local delivery agent Additional info: http://anfi.homeunix.net/cyrus/#sendmail http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/imapd/install-virtdomains.html
Not sure how much of a "bug" this is but thanks for posting it. It is exactly the information I was looking for!
This is in the fc4 sendmail.mc
