Hi all,
I have been fiddling with dovecot and things seem to be stuck on this problem:
Oct 20 11:21:35 mail dovecot: chdir(studiosala.net/federico/) failed with uid 1001: Permission denied Oct 20 11:21:35 mail dovecot: child 22150 (pop3) returned error 89
This is the telnet session that generates it:
mail:~# telnet localhost pop3 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain. Escape character is '^]'. +OK dovecot ready. user federico@studiosala.net +OK pass XXXXXX +OK Logged in. Connection closed by foreign host.
I am stuck: the UID/GID that postfix uses for dropping the mail in /varm/mail/domains/ is 1001/1001. The query string to mysql (the backend where I have stored the users) is (from mysql log, so it is executed):
682 Query SELECT 1001 AS uid, 1001 AS gid, '/var/mail/domains/' AS mail, maildir AS home FROM mailbox WHERE username = 'ale@studiosala.net'
mail:/etc# ls -lad /var/mail drwxrwsr-t 3 root mail 4096 2004-10-19 23:49 /var/mail mail:/etc# ls -lad /var/mail/domains/ drwxr-sr-t 4 vmail vmail 4096 2004-10-20 07:03 /var/mail/domains/
I am not sure of how to proceed from here, any hint appreciated.
thanks stef
