I have solved at least another part of the problem that was causing the setuig error. I changed my postfix/master.cf file from this:
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f ${sender} -d ${recipient}
to this:
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f ${sender} ${recipient}
taking out the d flag. Now dovecot doesn't complain. *However*, I've *still* got this devil plaguing me:
Oct 25 10:49:18 myserver postfix/pipe[3712]: 0423257901AB: to=<foo@bar.com>, relay=dovecot, delay=109318, delays=109318/0.14/0/0.1, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure
Ya know, I know I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to programming, but I have *never* worked *so hard* on an installation as this one with so little success! It took me a day to install qmail the first time around. I've been a week on this!! Please help me figure this mess out. For the record, I did rebuild dovecot but that obviously didn't help. I did change the posfix files to pump out a bunch of debugging info:
adding a -D flag to every smptd service in master.cf This in main.cf: debug_peer_level = 3 debugger_command = PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin xxgdb $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5 debug_peer_list = 127.0.0.1 #debug_peer_list =
and it doesn't give me any output like it did the first time, so I assume (perhaps incorrectly) there are no errors.
TIA, Jack
