Please reread the reply you were given. While I understand that you
didn't like the tone of it, Ansgar did give you as much on-topic
information as is possible. You got a pointer to the keywords you
should find in the VIRTUAL_README, along with a Web link thereto.

I will echo Ansgar's sentiments as well. I regret the harshness of
tone, but I don't know how you could get very far not knowing the
answer to your question. If you didn't set it up with user accounts,
how could you have tested Cyrus IMAP? You said it was working. What
does that mean?

If you do manage to come up with a real Postfix question in the
future, please see this before posting again:
    http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail
That way, you can give the list a smart question and hope for an
informed answer.

BTW, VIRTUAL_README.html#local_vs_database has another important bit
of advice, which will help you understand the difference between
Postfix issues and PostgreSQL issues.

Parse error at unknown token: synistic.
