Salam Munzir:
Postfix will not deliver to cyrus spool in this setup. Cyrux will.
in main.cf only add
mailbox_transport = cyrus
and comment out home_mailbox = .Maildir/ this is not used by cyrus
in master.cf make sure that cyrus is defined as:
cyrus unix - n n - - pipe
user=cyrus argv=/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/deliver -e -r ${sender} -m ${extension} ${user}
The above are from my working mail servers. It is a redhat server. I don't know about your setup but use them as pointers.
Good luck to you. :)
Abdallah
