From my 'master.cf' file:
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe
flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver
-f ${sender} -d ${user}@${nexthop}
From 'main.cf' file: (snippet)
virtual_gid_maps = static:1002
virtual_minimum_uid = 100
virtual_transport = dovecot
virtual_uid_maps = static:1002
Obviously, I have that user:
pw showuser 1002
vmail:*:1002:1002::0:0:Virtual Mail User:/nonexistent:/usr/sbin/nologin
My log file is has 0600 permissions and its owner/group is 'vmail'.
