I had the config files in the conf.d/ directory as *.conf instead of *conf.ext. When I renamed the files to include .ext that seemed to fix the problem. Coming from Dovecot 1.x I never used extended config files in the conf.d directory, apparently they have to be named .ext.
Thanks, Paul

Hi, after deciding to use Dovecot 2.0.8 as a postfix LDA using mysql DB I'm running into some issues. I started to follow, http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DovecotLDAPostfixAdminMySQL but noticed that the auth settings on the config changed, after looking through the dovecot wiki I think I have that issue fixed. However I still can't get the SQL part to work right, below is what I have on the conf.d/sql.conf and the error I get.
service dovecot status
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/conf.d/sql.conf line 1: Unknown setting: password_query
Where do I put the sql connect string, in the URL above that along with the driver type went on the sql.conf file but that is no longer the case. If anyone has a better reference/suggestions for what im trying to do I would appreciated it.
Thanks, Paul
