connect(/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp) failed: No such file or directory

Hi,

I've installed postfix (2.1.5), cyrus (2.1.18) and fetchmail on my
debian server (sarge, Kernel 2.6.9). The system was running fine for a
few month, but suddenly i have a serious problem and neeed some help

1. cyrus login and administration is not possible anymore(via Evolution
or telnet or cyradm)
2. cyrus is filling up my logfiles with incredible speed and megabytes
of messages.

Because i have not changed anything in the configuration files, i'm
wondering what is going wrong.
i removed the complete cyrus package from the system and installed it
again, but the problem occured again

-Maybe a problem with a debian package update ?
-a few days ago i installed websieve, but removed it also.
-file corruption ?

I don't know.

Greetings,

Markus
