SoI had a hell of a time converting my qmail install to dovecot 2.0.5, so I thought I'd pass on what I learned.
When using vpopmail, do not use " --disable-many-domains". If you do, you'll need to recompile vpopmail without that setting and use the script found at http://qmailrocks.thibs.com/downloads/scripts/migrate-vpopmail-many-domains to collapse the tables.
Switch to mysql authentication. The following snippet works well.
driver = mysql connect = host=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock user=vpopmail password=YOURPASS dbname=vpopmail default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT CONCAT(pw_name, '@', pw_domain) AS user, pw_clear_passwd AS password FROM vpopmail WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND pw_domain = '%d' user_query = SELECT pw_dir as home, 1008 AS uid, 1003 AS gid FROM vpopmail WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND pw_domain = '%d'
Just a quick FYI: You could just use the vpopmail driver that comes with Dovecot. It's easier to configure, and it does not matter what backend database you use.
