But 'dovecot -n' will be more useful.

dovecot doesn't seem to like "-n"

It must work.

"dovecot -n" command gives a clean output of the changed settings. Use it

instead of copy&pasting this file when posting to the Dovecot mailing list.

Which service do you use to authenticate users?

saslauthd from cyrus

Sorry, I don't use it, but I think the problem is there.
