Fedora pushed out an update to Dovecot 1.0 rc 28 today. After upgrading, mail isn't delivered to local recipients. My log file is full of error messages similar to the following:

Apr 2 12:56:32 mail deliver(user@domain.com): net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Connection
refused

Delete this file. Restart Dovecot. Does it get recreated?

When I delete the file and restart Dovecot it is recreated.

Does this then happen every time when running deliver? Does netstat
show that dovecot-auth is listening in that path?

Connection refused means either that no-one is listening on the other
side, or that its listen queue got full.
