Actually, I discovered the cyrus-imapd /pop agent works without doing anything to it. I figured at least it would have to be told something, but connecting to port 110 seems to bring it alive. Whether or not it will actually work when thunderbird or evolution connects to it is yet to be seen!
Frankly, I am a bit astonished about that statement (Cyrus-IMAPd working without any configuration steps). I explain that to me that you so far didn't try to receive email from outside. Be aware that Sendmail from default setup - what you pasted as your sendmail.mc - will not hand over any incoming mail to Cyrus-IMAPd. This is not because you would have made a setup mistake, but because you so far didn't configure both to interact. Though you can contact your IMAP/POP3 server with your mail client it is a dumb thing so far. Even your mail client should tell you that there is no mailbox for the user you are logging in with: because with Cyrus-IMAPd the administrator (user cyrus) has to create each top-level mailbox (given you didn't configure and enable the autocreate feature).
