Good idea to check. But I don't have anything in my apparmor setup for
either postfix or dovecot. I don't know about Romer Ventura's config. I do
know the error trying to open the log files that I got is because the userid
Postfix ran dovecot deliver as was not allowed to open files there (before I
did chmod 777). So it's definitely an issue of what userid dovecot/deliver
is running as (it runs as the LHS of receipient, not "vmail" as preferred).
