What does deliver log to dovecot.log? If nothing, does it have enough permissions to write to it?
Oh, /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log of course. :)
I just had a problem similar to this. I turned on all the debug (logging) in dovecot and discovered that I had to the default 0600 permissions on auth-client and auth-master, as shown below. After restarting dovecot, all went well.
srw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0B Oct 4 15:43 auth-client= srw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 0B Oct 4 15:43 auth-master=
I am confused. The permissions above look like 0666 to me. Do I make my file look like what is above, or set it to 0600?
Sorry about the confusion. I had to change the settings to 0666 in order to make it work. It might work with just 0660; however, I did not have time to test it. The default 0600 definitely does not work on a FreeBSD-7.2 system (at least not mine).
