Hi,

In bug #494746, you added instruction form unix sockets lmtp delivery

"
  Use dpkg-statoverride to make sure your configuration for the socket
permissions will not be overwritten by the Cyrus packages.  Do remember that
Postfix usually runs the LMTP transport as user "postfix" (configurable in
/etc/postfix/master.cf).  Also, do not run the postfix lmtp transport 
chrooted
if the socket is not inside the chroot.

1. Create lmtp group

...

4. Restart Postfix ..
"

Could we add a third instructions like this:

3. Change in /etc/postfix/master.cf lmtp chroot column to 'n'
lmtp      unix  -       -       n       -       -       lmtp

If this step is not made, "No such file or directory" will be showed in 
logs (about /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp)

Thanks
