Messages now sitting in my queue appear to only be sitting there because there is capitlization somewhere in the email address. I've added: lmtp_downcase_rcpt: yes to the imapd.conf file, as well as added: flags=Ru as opposed to flags=R in the master.cf file, but to no avail.

Showing messages 1 through 1 of 1.

  Not the preferred solution, but it works ...
  
  1. Put the following shell script in the file "/usr/local/bin/deliver":
  
  
  

  
  
  # This is a front end script for the Cyrus "deliver" program
  
  # that forces the username to lowercase
  
  #
  
  # usage:  deliver $USER
  
  #
  
  if [ -n "$1" ]; then
  
   user=`echo $1 | tr A-Z a-z`
  
   /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/deliver -e -a $user -m user/$user; 
  
  fi
  
  

  
  
  2. Change the last line of the file "/etc/procmailrc" to ...
  
  

  
  | /usr/local/bin/deliver $USER
