Missing processes

Hi list,

I'm new on dovecot mailing list, this is my second dovecot
installation.

I'm using Debian 8, dovecot packages cames from repository. I'm
using it with Postfix - postfix uses dovecot as virtual
transport.

Looks like everything is fine: dovecot starts, and I see this
line in syslog:

Dec  4 00:57:04 myserver dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.2.13 starting up for imap, lmtp, pop3 (core dumps disabled)

but there isn't any imap nor pop3 process:

# ps ax | grep dovecot
23723 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/dovecot -F
23732 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/anvil
23733 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/log
23735 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/config

In logs, there isn't any relevant info. If I send a mail to
Postfix, it uses dovecot/auth, ant it starts _only_when_ postfix
used it:

# ps ax | grep dovecot
23723 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/dovecot -F
23732 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/anvil
23733 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/log
23735 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/config
25049 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/lmtp
25050 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/auth
25052 ?        S      0:00 dovecot/auth -w


But there still isn't the dovecot/imap...


Why?


Thanks,


a.
