No, because I have commented out "passdb {driver = pam} " in the file 
"/etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-system.conf.ext"
What I want is to avoid having to make changes to dovecot original 
files, just have all the self-configuration in local.config.
I have no real users only virtual users, I do not need to check users 
against pam.
