Thank you Thomas for opening my eyes on that matter, I fixed that area as bellow and it solved the Postfix problem 100% service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0600 user = postfix group = postfix } } Now I only have same old issue with Dovecot only: 2011-08-05 07:52:21 imap(contact@mydomain.com): Debug: Effective uid=901, gid=12, home=/vmail/mydomain.com/contact 2011-08-05 07:52:21 imap(contact@mydomain.com): Error: user contact@mydomain.com: Initialization failed: Initializing mail storage from mail_location setting failed: Unknown mail storage driver maildir 2011-08-05 07:52:21 imap(contact@mydomain.com): Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information. Somehow it doesnt like what I have in mail_location or so... but I tried so many other folders, tried maildir also, error keeps showing, I can login to IMAP but once I do I'm dropped :* BYE Internal error occurred. Refer to server log for more information. Connection closed by foreign host. Thank you again for any oppinion or advice.
In the config posted 'service auth' is not configured:

No I noticed Postfix isnt running anymore :( Aug 4 14:49:25 hostname postfix/smtpd[6414]: connect from mail-fx0-f51.google.com[209.85.161.51] Aug 4 14:49:25 hostname postfix/smtpd[6414]: warning: SASL: Connect to private/auth failed: Connection refused Aug 4 14:49:25 hostname postfix/smtpd[6414]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms All I did was a simple system reboot
