Configure Dovecot Master User

[Clovis Tristao]

I'm using this setting in dovecot:

# dovecot -n
# 2.0.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 2.6.32-431.29.2.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.5 (Final)
auth_debug = yes
auth_debug_passwords = yes
auth_master_user_separator = *
auth_mechanisms = plain login
auth_verbose = yes
auth_verbose_passwords = plain
disable_plaintext_auth = no
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
mbox_write_locks = fcntl
passdb {
   args = /etc/dovecot/passwd.masterusers
   driver = passwd-file
   master = yes
   pass = yes
}
passdb {
   driver = shadow
}
ssl = no
ssl_cert = </etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem
ssl_key = </etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem
userdb {
   args = allow_all_users=yes master_user=%u
   driver = static
}

I still can not authenticate with the master user, any suggestions or tips?
