Thank you very much for your advice, but that error of postfx I got from the error-log. Dovecot doesn't complain. It only doesn't create the sockets, I have in the service section of 10-master.conf

There should be more somewhere with "permission denied" or similar somewhere - the more useful programs log everything possibly strange.

Additionally you could start 'dovecot' under "strace" - e.g. strace -o dovecot.strace ... and look for the socket() sys-calls for an error.
