When the Sieve plugin tries to send a vacation message or redirect
a message to another address it fails.

dovecot: lmtp(6412, user at example.com): Error: lmtp client: DNS lookup of orange.example.com failed: connect(dns-client) failed: No such file or directory
dovecot: lmtp(6412, user at example.com): Error: dAIOClYSJE8MGQAAhQ0vrQ: sieve: msgid=<4F241255.2060900 at example.com>: failed to redirect message to <admin+user at example.com> (refer to server log for more information)

But the dns-client sockets are created when Dovecot starts up:

# find /usr/local/var/run/dovecot -name dns-client -exec ls -l {} +
srw-rw-rw- 1 root staff 0 Jan 28 16:15 /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/dns-client
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root  0 Jan 28 16:15 /usr/local/var/run/dovecot/login/dns-client

Hum, is it Dovecot or Pigeonhole (dovecot-2.1-pigeonhole 1600:b2a456e15ed5)?

Pascal
