You said that "cyrdeliver -m shared" works. But your exim command
doesn't use the -m switch; maybe that's the problem? Mine looks like
this:
cyrus:
driver = pipe
command = /usr/sbin/cyrdeliver -m ${substr_1:$local_part_suffix} -- $local_part
user = cyrus
group = mail
return_output
log_output
message_prefix =
message_suffix =
However, not that I'm using exim4; but I think the point is that you do not invoke the cyrdeliver command properly.
Have you tested what:
exim -bt shared
gives you on output?
Or even more information with
exim -d -bt shared
?
