I ran into this problem too. In my standalone Cyrus config, I was using
"lmtpd -a" (preauth). When I tried to setup Murder, I couldn't make
preauth work with lmtpproxyd. I had to turn off preauth on the backend
server and configure Postfix to use lmtp auth when it connected to the
frontend server. I actually posted this to the list about a week ago, but
here is what I did:
In postfix's main.cf:
lmtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
lmtp_sasl_password_maps=hash:/etc/postfix/lmtp_passwd
lmtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
In /etc/postfix/lmtp_passwd:
cyrus-fe1.onid.oregonstate.edu cyr_lmtp:password
In imapd.conf on the frontend server:
lmtp_admins: cyr_lmtp
proxy_authname: cyr_proxy
In imapd.conf on the backend server:
lmtp_admins: cyr_proxy
proxyservers: cyr_proxy
