Hi Sven,

local mails are delivered via the mailer:

/etc/mail/sendmail.mc
...
dnl # Enable the Cyrus mailer
define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')dnl
dnl # Path to Cyrus LMTP socket
dnl define(`CYRUSV2_MAILER_ARGS',`FILE /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp')dnl
MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl
LOCAL_RULE_0
R$=N			$: $#local $: $1
R$=N < @ $=w . >	$: $#local $: $1
Rbb + $+ < @ $=w . >	$#cyrusbb $: $1
LOCAL_CONFIG

I think this is the intended way.. I din't setup that system but it
looks as it is supposed to look.

Could you reproduce the problem?

Happy Xmas
