Hi all there - sorry I have to repeat the mail since I got the message it was not delivered correctly.

Hi all, I have run successfully a postfix/dovecot installation some time ago.

Now, setting up a new server, I am lost with some error messages.

I would appreciate some help.

+++ f42252se dovecot: pop3-login: Error: auth: connect(login) in directory / failed: Permission denied (euid=113() egid=65534() missing +x perm: /, dir owned by 5000:5000 mode=0750) +++

This is the error message I get.

"directory /" is a little bit courious to me.

Here my dovecot config:
