[Dovecot] New problem with migration to 2.0

[Carsten Laun-De Lellis]

Hi Thomas

Thank you very much. To wrap the lines does the trick. But as always my
dovecot -n is now:

root at S000004:/usr/local/etc/dovecot# dovecot -n
# 2.0.0: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic i686 Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
auth_mechanisms = plain login
disable_plaintext_auth = no
log_timestamp = %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S
mail_location = maildir:/mail/%d/%n/Maildir
mail_privileged_group = mail
managesieve_notify_capability = mailto
managesieve_sieve_capability = comparator-i;octet
comparator-i;ascii-casemap fileinto reject envelope encoded-character
vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags
copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date spamtest
spamtestplus virustest
namespace {
  inbox = yes
  location =
  prefix = INBOX.
  separator = .
}
passdb {
  args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf
  driver = sql
}
protocols = imap
service auth {
  unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
    group = vmail
    mode = 0666
    user = vmail
  }o
  unix_listener auth-master {
    mode = 0666
  }
}
ssl_cert = /keys/mail.pem
ssl_key = /keys/mail.pem
userdb {
  args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
  driver = static
}
verbose_ssl = yes
protocol lda {
  auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
  log_path = /var/log/mail.log
  postmaster_address = postmaster at delellis.net
}

No more errors !!!!!

But when i try to start dovecot the following message appears:
root at S000004:/usr/local/etc/dovecot# /etc/init.d/dovecot start
Starting DovecotFatal: service(imap-login) User doesn't exist: dovenull

But i am never using a user like dovenull.

Any ideas ??

Mit freundlichem Gruß
