Question: if you use an alternate location for the config file, and start dovecot with that config file properly, does plain 'dovecot -n' output what is in the config file that is in use? Or the one in the default location?
It's the default location:
tw@mail2:~$ pgrep -lf dovecot 28900 /usr/sbin/dovecot -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf 28901 dovecot-auth tw@mail2:~$ dovecot -n # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf Error: Can't open configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: No such file or directory Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf tw@mail2:~$
Ouch... that adds a big wrinkle to troubleshooting, especially if a file *does* exist at the default location...
