Hi, I'm trying to set up dovecot 1.1.2 and postfix 2.5.4 on freebsd 7.0.
I'm getting permissions problems on auth-master and I'm not sure of the
correct settings to use.
In postfix's main.cf I have
mailbox_command=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $USER
In dovecot.conf I have:
socket listen {
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0660
user = dovecot
group = postfix
}
...
# ls -l /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
srw-rw---- 1 dovecot postfix 0 Sep 18 18:26 /var/run/dovecot/auth-master=
In maillog I'm getting:
deliver(sumbuddy): Can't connect to auth server at /var/run/dovecot//auth-master: Permission denied
(I'm not sure where it's getting the "//" in the path either ...)
Also I'm confused about whether I need the postfix options:
maildrop_destination_recipient_limit=1
dovecot_destination_concurrency_limit=1
or even whether these are current options in my version of postfix (they don't
appear in main.cf.default)
Does deliver require such limits on concurrency or # of recipients?
Thanks!!
Rich
