Postfix & Cyrus woes on Fedora (FC5)

I'm struggling with setting up Postfix to deliver to Cyrus via LMTP unix socket. 
I receive the following errors and mail just sits in the queue: 

Jul 13 11:32:09 server0 postfix/lmtp[21956]: fatal: match_list_parse: 
open file /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp: No such device or address 
Jul 13 11:32:10 server0 postfix/master[21119]: warning: process 
/usr/libexec/postfix/lmtp pid 21956 exit status 1 
Jul 13 11:32:10 server0 postfix/master[21119]: warning: 
/usr/libexec/postfix/lmtp: bad command startup -- throttling

Initially, I had some problems with SELinux when it was set to Enforce, but I created a policy to allow Cyrus to access the socket. 
Furthermore, after the permission problems went away I changed the policy to permissive to just avoid any possible hidden problems while I figure out what's going on 

I am able to deliver mail via the LMTP unix socket to Cyrus using a simple unix socket "telnet" client I wrote, so it appears the Cyrus side is working fine. 

As for Postfix, here is the lmtp line out of master.conf: 

lmtp      unix  -       -       n       -       -       lmtp 

main.conf: 

mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp 

An ls -lZ of the socket: 

srwxrwxrwx  root     root     user_u:object_r:cyrus_var_lib_t /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp 

And, the directories leading up to the socket: 

drwxr-x---  cyrus    mail     system_u:object_r:cyrus_var_lib_t /var/lib/imap/socket 
drwxr-x---  cyrus    mail     system_u:object_r:cyrus_var_lib_t /var/lib/imap 
drwxr-xr-x  root     root     system_u:object_r:var_lib_t      /var/lib 
drwxr-xr-x  root     root     system_u:object_r:var_t          /var 
drwxr-xr-x  root     root     system_u:object_r:root_t         /

The version of Postfix I'm working with is 2.2.8-1.2. 

Could someone please give me some ideas about what's wrong.
