AFAIK Cyrus only stores mail in a custom format. I'd prefer using either
mbox or maildir so I can use standard utils to manipulate them if I ever
feel the need.

In addition, Cyrus is probably more suitable for large sites. I'm just
running this on old hardware for some friends and family, so I prefer a
more lightweight setup.

Thanks for pointing out another alternative though.
