I'll do an update shortly, but...  I've changed the definition to use
MAILER(cyrusv2) which seems to be a bit less traumatic, but...

Only adds the mailer (M) definition.  It doesn't seem to actually
"turn it on" anywhere in the rulesets.  Does one need to add
external configuration (via aliases or mailertable) to get mail
to be delivered via $#cyrusv2 instead?  If so, how?

Thanks,
