Re: [Dovecot] Please help me resolve why mail isn't being delivered to virtual users

What must be done to make sendmail do its thing for deliver?

I use Dovecot in conjunction with Sendmail with Maildirs as the mail store and it works fine. We use "procmail" as the local delivery agent though.

Stuff in the sendmail config file:

define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH', `/ifm/bin/procmail')
FEATURE(local_procmail)

Users mail store is mounted as /home/$USER/Maildir and with an procmail config file (/etc/procmailrc) like this:

# procmailrc
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir/

I should some day investigate on how to use Dovecots own local delivery agent...
