Greetings,
We're in the process of upgrading our Dovecot server to new hardware and new expanded storage. We planned on using an NFS share for the mail storage, as we're running Postfix / Dovecot on a VM and wanted to separate out the mail storage from the VM for backup reasons.
I read as much as I could find on line regarding configuring Dovecot to use NFS, and set it up as best I could, but I'm still running into lock errors e.g.:
Sep 25 10:30:35 triata4 dovecot: imap(user@triata.globalchange.media)<75580>
Also, I have been trying to configure the Dovecot submission service to authenticate with Postfix, but I keep running into errors which are related to how I'm configuring the authentication. How do we set the user@domain and password string for submission in the configs?
Thank you.
Please see doveconf -n below, if you see any other errors in this config, I'd be grateful if you pointed them out:
