hi...I've a problem with dovecot 0.99.13-3 for fedora core 3. When I start dovecot with "service dovecot start" it seems to start succesful but it is a false message. It don't start and in /var/log/maillog I've this errors:

Apr 1 15:37:00 edim dovecot: Dovecot starting up Apr 1 15:37:03 edim dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Apr 1 15:37:03 edim dovecot: child 9593 (auth) returned error 127 Apr 1 15:37:03 edim pop3-login: fd_send(-1) failed: Broken pipe

That probably means that dovecot-auth tries to use some library that doesn't exist. Check with:

ldd /usr/lib/dovecot/dovecot-auth (or wherever it's installed)
