Sorry, the DB_CONFIG is a red herring: I just rebooted and it started
giving me the "Deferred: No such file or directory" for every new piece
of mail, but the DB_CONFIG file is still in the directory.

So now I'm stumped. I can manually connect to my imap server's lmtp
socket (cyrus) and deliver mail by hand, so I know the imap server is
working. I'm not sure how to debug sendmail though. Nothing in strace is
giving me any clues.
