The FAQ lists some reasons: http://www.cyrusimap.org/docs/cyrus-imapd/2.4.6/faq.php LMTP has the advantage of not executing a new process with each email delivery, allows you to run your smtp mta and cyrus lmtpd daemon on separate hosts, and allows you to make use of single instance store for multiple lmtp recipients. deliver/cyrdeliver has the advantage of working with more MTAs - those that aren't lmtp aware. It also may fit more flexibly into existing procmail or virus scanning environments that know how to pipe an email but don't know how to speak lmtp. -- Dan White ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
