One thing that has changed is the configuration is in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf instead of /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf . You may need to need to edit that.
Sure, I saw that, thought that since the file name is given in the main config file I wouldn't modify the file name but would edit the file instead, compared the two, decided it would be easier to insert the values I knew in the new file, and thus painstakingly doublechecking everything I modified dovecot-sql.conf with the values from dovecot-mysql.conf while leaving dovecot.conf pointing to dovecot-mysql.conf. Whimper. Edited dovecot.conf to point to dovecot-sql.conf, and now everything is up and running OK, and I've got my Courier UIDLs. isync complains about uidvalidity having changed, but I'll research that.
The, ummm, error message *could* be improved somewhat though :-)
Especially since it was brought about by using .99 config files with 1.0 binary, and that's likely to happen to others than me! Some .deb "pre" scripts could come in useful.
Thanks for the help (and for the software!)
