I purchased the license for the Dovecot Object Storage for Dropbox to 
test this functionality on a personal domain.

Unfortunately I can not make it work, I create the token for my Dropbox 
account from here https://dropbox.dovecot.fi/ and setup in dovecot 
configuration.

When I try to login with an user I found these errors in log file:

I do not think it's a problem of my configuration, if instead of 
Dropbox use AWS S3 works fine, seems to be a token problem (401 
Unauthorized).

The plugin configuration is this:

### Dropbox
plugin {
         obox_fs = fscache 
10G:/var/lib/dovecot/cache:dropbox:https://XXXX:YYYY@dropbox/
}

Anyone successfully used this setup?
