Hi all, I'm having trouble getting a new Postfix/Dovecot server up and running.

I'm trying to run v1.0.3, using MySQL tables setup list postfix admin. This is a RHEL5 server. Getting this error tail /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-deliver.log deliver(none@example.com): Sep 04 19:44:15 Fatal: setgid(12) failed: Operation not permitted That 12 being my vmail user.

I'm not exactly sure what's trying to setgid, nor how to fix it, any ideas would be appreciated.

How do you deliver email with postfix ? I have: mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver And what user owns your directory where you store emails? In my case it needs to be the user dovecot runs as.

Cheers, Marcin.
