Hi,

sounds very complicated. I wrote two Q&D scripts to fetch
the local_parts from the Cyrus imapd via Perl. The first
uses the IMAP-Admin package from CPAN:

---
use IMAP::Admin;
use strict;

sub imapusers {
        my $server      = shift;
        my $port        = shift;
        my $user        = shift;
        my $pass        = shift;
        my $mailbox     = Exim::expand_string('$local_part');


        if ( $server && $port && $user && $pass ) {
                my ($imap, @list);


                $imap = IMAP::Admin->new( 'Server'    => $server,
                                             'Port'      => $port,
                                             'Separator' => ".",
                                             'Login'     => $user,
                                             'Password'  => $pass
                                        );


                @list = $imap->list("user.$mailbox");
                $list[0] =~ s/user\.//g;


                $imap->close;
                return $list[0] || "";
        }
        else {
                die "missing parameter\n";
        }
}

The second uses the perl Interface that comes with Cyrus 2.0:
---
use Cyrus::IMAP::Admin;
use strict;

sub imapusers {
        my $server      = shift;
        my $mech        = shift;
        my $user        = shift;
        my $pass        = shift;
        my $mailbox     = Exim::expand_string('$local_part');


        if ( $server && $mech && $user && $pass ) {
                my ($imap, $lasterror, @list);


                my $imap = Cyrus::IMAP::Admin->new($server);
                $imap->authenticate( -user      => $user,
                                     -mechanism => $mech,
                                     -password  => $pass
                ) or die "cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with
$mech as $user\n";
                @list = $imap->list("user.","$mailbox");
                if ( defined($lasterror = $imap->error()) ) {
                        die "$lasterror\n";
                }
                my $list = ${$list[0]}[0];
                $list =~ s/user\.//g;


                return $list || "";
        }
        else {
                die "missing parameter\n";
        }
}
---


My transport is like:
cyrus_pipe:
    driver            = pipe
    bsmtp             = none
    command           = /usr/cyrus/bin/deliver -q -e ${local_part} -a
${local_part}
...


My director is like:
cyrus_director:
    driver        = localuser
    transport     = cyrus_pipe
#   local_parts   = lsearch;/etc/exim/imapuser
    local_parts   =
${perl{imapusers}{localhost}{143}{admin}{admin_pass}}


For the latter case of script replace 143 (the port) with login (the
mechanism
used to connect to the cyrus imapd).

Maybe the Perl code could be improved. You need to load the Perl code
with
something like
perl_startup = do '/etc/exim/imapusers.pl'

cu,
Jan
