Hi List,
I am trying to set up dovecot on my mail server and am
having some difficulties…
I want to use virtual mailboxes and so have set up a
passwd-file for userdb and passdb and created entries for a user but they don’t
seem to be working… I have included the relevant lines from all three files
below…
Dovecot.conf…
auth_userdb = passwd-file /etc/dovecot/users
auth_passdb = passwd-file /etc/dovecot/passwd
users file…
phil@topazaccommodation.co.uk::503:503::/var/mail/vhosts/topazaccommodation.co.uk:/bin/false::
passwd file…
phil@topazaccommocation.co.uk:$1$G/FqlOG5$Vj0xmc9fKY.UVr8OWr/7C1
As far as I know the password is the word ‘test’ encrypted
with MD5 (is there anyway to have these as plain text?)
Finally the entry from the log file…

Any ideas?
Thanks
