Hello On 7 sept 2005 I downloaded compiled and installed Dovecot v1.0.alpha1. I get the following error when ever I try to start it using fossil:/usr/local/libexec/dovecot # ./imap-login Fatal: EOF while reading environment from master
The dovecot.err log has the following error: dovecot: Sep 08 18:47:33 Info: Dovecot v1.0.alpha1 starting up dovecot: Sep 08 18:47:33 Error: login: Missing protocol from server name 'imap'
I am not using xinetd to start it. the Alpha version has not worked no version of dove cot has worked since I first reported this problem.
I shall be gratefull for any solutions offered

I have been running dovecot as an imap server since 22nd July 2005. The server was started from xinetd using /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-auth The sever run successfully until the machine was shut down in a power outage on 12 Aug 2005. Dovecot has failed to start since the reboot. When starting it with the imap-auth it gives the following error: fatal: EOF reading environment from master
Running Dovecot from xinetd hasn't usually been working. I guess it works in some releases, but I haven't really tried to keep it working.. Maybe I should fix it for v1.0 release.
