Bug#494746: cyrus-imapd-2.2: connect(/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp) failed: Permission denied

[Karsten Ohme]

Package: cyrus-imapd-2.2
Version: 2.2.13-14+b1
Severity: normal

I fetch my mails with fetchmail, this mails are send to exim, exim uses 
a procmail transport pipe and this sorts it into cyrus-imapd.

The delivery does not work. For soem strange reason I also get (from 
/var/log/mail.log):

connect(/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp) failed: Permission denied

/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp belongs root:

srwxrwxrwx 1 root  root    0 Aug 11 21:42 lmtp

/var/run/cyrus/socket
drwxr-x---  2 cyrus mail 4096 Aug 11 21:42 socket

is 750.

So I tried out 755 for the socket directory. And this works. But 
everytiem I start cyrus again, this is corrected to 750. So I changed it 
in /var/lib/dpkg/statoverride to 755. But I don't know why this is 
neccessary

ps axu | grep cyrus:

cyrus    10989  3.1  2.3  11072  2924 ?        Ss   21:42   0:00 
/usr/sbin/cyrmaster -d

Actually it should be able to access this directory also in 750 mode. 
But it does not work.
