I'm trying to run Postix and Dovecot on a Mac OS X, but somehow, it doesn't work. I probably messed up the privileges or something else. Hopefully someone of you, can help me figure it out. So far, Postfix is delivering the mail into ~/Maildir. But as soon as I add the line:
mailbox_command = /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda
in /etc/postfix/main.cf
I get the following entry in the mail.log.
Feb 27 16:08:02 Nils-iMac.local local[53237]: fatal: execvp /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda: Permission denied Feb 27 16:08:02 Nils-iMac.local postfix/local[53236]: B246837BE40: to=marc@localhost.local, orig_to=marc@localhost, relay=local, delay=1185, delays=1185/0.01/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure.

Here are the rights of dovecot-lda:
-rwxrwx--- 1 root certusers 32144 Dec 5 04:41 /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda ^^^^^^^^^^
Only root and users in group certusers may exec the program, as what user postfix tries to run the LDA? Maybe check any directory in path as well.
