I think I found here what I'm interested in: https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/system_users_used_by_dovecot/.

Hi Aki,
Thanks. I was especially interested in documentation related to dovecot and it's users permissions, the way in which dovecot uses users. Till now I found only spread information on different articles from dovecot's website.
Thanks, Mura Andrei

although we probably need to add some words into doc.dovecot.org under known issues.

Hi Aki,
Any documentation on this topic?

This is probably caused by systemd (or selinux or both).
With systemd, you need to add
ReadWritePaths=/home/mail
to the systemd unit.
Then you can check /var/log/audit/audit.log for any selinux specific

Hi,
Dovecot version 2.2.36 In log files I get this error: dovecot: imap(test): Namespace '':
mkdir(/home/mail/domain/test/Maildir) failed: Permission denied (euid=1005(vmail) egid=1005(vmail) missing +w perm: /home/mail/domain, UNIX perms appear ok (ACL/MAC wrong?))
My authentication configuration is this: passdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users }
userdb { driver = static args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/mail/domain/%n
username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users
}
/home/mail/domain/test directory is owned by vmail user. How to fix this?
