I have downloaded and built dovecot 2.1.1 using gcc on AIX 6.1. (The output of "dovecot -n" is at the bottom of this email.)
I'm trying "baby steps" to get it up, before I give it the final configuration. (My apologies: I was pointed to RFC3501 and told to get an IMAP server, build it, configure it, and bring it up)
What is currently occurring when I start dovecot is: Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 110) failed: Address already in use Error: service(pop3-login): listen(::, 995) failed: Address already in use Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 143) failed: Address already in use Error: service(imap-login): listen(::, 993) failed: Address already in use Fatal: Failed to start listeners
Edit your dovecot.conf around line 26. By default listen is set to '*, ::' If your host doesn't have IPv6 enabled use:
listen = *Regards, Pascal
