if i do a saslpasswd2 -c -u evilcoder.org remko
and type in my password, i get a file in /usr/local/etc/ named sasldb2
with permissions for cyrus (rw) and for the group mail (r). My postfix 
user is in the group mail.

The problem you are describing seems to me that the postfix user does 
not have enough permissions to get access to the db. Check them out.. :-)

Cheers
