Changes since rc1:
- mail_extra_groups setting was commonly used insecurely. This
setting is now deprecated. Most users should switch to using mail_privileged_group setting, but if you really need the old functionality use mail_access_groups instead.
Timo,
When I set...
mail_privileged_group = mail
...dovecot refuses to start. We are NOT using mbox here, only Maildir.
mail_access_groups = mail works as before just fine.
Output of working 'dovecot -n' (with mail_access_groups set as above)
