Thanks to everyone for the valuable help with Cyrus/sendmail.

As pointed out by more than one individual, I was missing the define:

  define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrus')

(Which I never did see in any of the docmentation that I read!  What's
this, an IQ test for sendmail administrators? :-)  Also, when all was said
and done, I also had to create a /usr/etc/imap/deliverdb directory and
change the owner to cyrus:cyrus, to avoid complaints about lockfiles from
sendmail.

Scot Hetzel also suggested the following:

  LOCAL_CONFIG
  FN /etc/mail/sendmail.cN

... which appears to be the way to prevent messages from going through
cyrus (and, thus, not into local mail).  For example, I added root to this
file so that root can receive his messages from /var/mail once again.
I'll likely add a few more important ones to the list.

Now I'm off to set up some group mailboxes for my staff role accounts.
QPopper is going to stay in the ports tree this time around :-)
