It doesn't start because your configuration (likely /etc/cyrus.conf, but 
perhaps /usr/local/etc/cyrus.conf) lists 'http' in the SERVICES section, 
but it cannot find the binary.  Since it lacks the requirements to run, 
it shuts down.  If you're not using Caldav or Carddav, then you don't 
need 'httpd' and you can solve the problem by simply doing as Marco 
suggests, and comment out the line(s) in SERVICES which refer to 'http' 
or 'https'.  Otherwise you need to install the correct package.

As to whether you need to "completely reinstall" that depends upon a lot 
of other variables, so is best left to your judgement.

Lastly, if diagnosing sendmail is really necessary, please do so on a 
sendmail mailing list, and not here, since it's not a Cyrus problem.

Cheers,
