    I posted a seperate message with the details of my postfix troubles. I
    have a workaround solution of using the cyrus deliver program. I
    understand that all it does is accept piped input and talk to cyrus-imap
    via lmtp.

    I will work through the "equivs" package and go from there. I still 'don't
    get' how Debian packages are built. I will have to look at that some time.

    Thanks,
    Adi
