Is the script executable? I'm out of ideas.
Yes, you can set it up exactly the same for IMAP.

Much closer! It seems to run the script, but now I get: Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/imap-postpop) failed: Connection refused
I thought it might be because popuser has no logon capability (/sbin/nologin), but I changed that and connection is still refused.
Can it be my script? It is just: #!/bin/bash echo "$USER $IP
host $IP" > /var/lib/postpop/db/$IP exec "$@"The IP-named file is not being created. popuser owns the folder.
Also, when I get this working, can I set up a pop3 equivalent?

I am running Dovecot 2.0.13 on Fedora 15. I have migrated from a bincimap installation using checklocalpwd. All email is in folders owned by a unprivileged user, popuser. The email users are entirely virtual and have no relationship to actual linux users.
I am trying to implement a Post-login script to register the IP address that the authentication came from. Dovecot seems to be trying to execute the script as the email non-user, which does not work. I have specified that the script should be run as popuser, but it still runs as devnull@dhzone.com for instance. Everything up top that point seems to be happening happily under popuser.
I'd remove the unix_listener directive: service imap-postpop { executable = script-login /usr/local/bin/set_postpop user = popuser }
The equivalent is working for me.
