I've checked. There's only one installation on my fedora core 4 and I'm using the 0.99.14.

Is it possible that dovecot came with your system and you have actually two dovocots on your system. Then each one of them is using different config file and thats why its working and not working depending on which one you start. Mike

I've been trying to get dovecot working with postfix with virtual domain setting. I noticed that if I started dovecot with "sudo /usr/sbin/dovecot", everything would work fine. But if I started with "sudo /etc/init.d/dovecot start", I would get the following permission error. I checked "ps -ef | grep dovecot" and didn't find anything different.

Here's the directory for storing virtual domain email.
