Timo--
Actually, I did figure that out. It's been a long weekend. The problem I'm having now is the fact that I can login with POP3 and everything works but when I login with IMAP I get the following error:
PLAIN authentication failed. None of the authentication methods supported by your IMAP server (if any) are supported on this computer.
I'm using Outlook Express 6.x since that's what most all my clients use. Under auth_default{} I have it set with:
passdb passwd-file { args = /mail/%d/etc/passwd }
I have it set like that in both spots listed under auth_default, do I need to uncomment auth default_with_listener and set things up within there?

If you're authenticating from passwd-file, you probably should remove passdb pam from the config file?

I'm guessing you've configured it like:
passdb passwd-file { args = /mail/%d/etc/passwd }
In which case Dovecot expects the users to be in the passwd file without their domains. Use %.0d (or was it %0.d) instead of %d and it should work.
