Hi, I'm trying to configure Dovecot 2.0.1 to deliver email to users in /etc/passwd using the Dovecot LMTP service. So far, I can sucessufully do POP3 for system users, but when Postfix tries to deliver email to the Dovecot LMTP service the LMTP reject the job with:
"User doesn't exist ale@centos54.mydomain.com"
Any suggestions?
The user 'ale' is a valid user:
# grep ale /etc/passwd ale:x:500:500:Alex:/home/ale:/sbin/nologin
This is the dovecot -n output:
