I have recently installed dovecot on a FreeBSD mailserver running postfix. But when I try to login with imap/pop3, I always get an error "stat failed: Not a directory". I guess it is something wrong with the mail format postfix uses to store the message, but I don't seem to find the correct solution.
Here's the postfix log with the successful delivery:
Feb 17 08:58:24 mailsrv2 postfix/smtpd[75706]: connect from pc17r2.domain.com[10.0.1.17] Feb 17 08:59:07 mailsrv2 postfix/smtpd[75706]: 290F1B81D: client= pc17r2.domain.com[10.0.1.17] Feb 17 08:59:20 mailsrv2 postfix/cleanup[75710]: 290F1B81D: message-id=20080217075907.290F1B81D@mailsrv2.domain.com Feb 17 08:59:20 mailsrv2 postfix/qmgr[75703]: 290F1B81D: from=andrea@vp44.net, size=384, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Feb 17 08:59:21 mailsrv2 postfix/virtual[75711]: 290F1B81D: to=andrea@internal.domain.com, relay=virtual, delay=39, delays=39/0.26/0/0.24, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to mailbox) Feb 17 08:59:21 mailsrv2 postfix/qmgr[75703]: 290F1B81D: removed
And here dovecot:
