You should configure your MTA do deliver to cyrus, preferably using LMTP.

Look for instance on:
http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/CyrusImap
for exim, or
http://anfi.homeunix.net/sendmail/rtcyrus2.html
for sendmail.
With postfix it's easy too:
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp
in your main.cf could just be sufficient.

If you just need a simple IMAP daemon, you could use dovecot that is 
available with RH 4 too.
