Ok I added the two users _dovecot & _dovenull to mail group, still get same error "Too many extra groups"
# grep mail /etc/group /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf /etc/group:mail:*:6:_teamsserver,_dovecot,_dovenull /etc/group:_mailman:*:78: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_debug = yes /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_gid = mail /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_location = mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_privileged_group = mail /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_access_groups = mail /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_uid = _dovecot

I'm trying to build on osx so I can try to do some debugging. The INSTALL.md says to do:
$ more INSTALL.md Build Instructions
For most people, the usual:
./configure make sudo make installBut there is no configure file. How would I generate the configure file? Is it generated? Been a long time since I've done open source C code..
Thanks

I did find that page and tried a few things there. My config has all of the settings there except 3:
mail_access_groups = mail mbox_read_locks = fcntl mbox_write_locks = fcntl
I add them to my config, restart and get the same abort

I've tried numerous other settings as well.
Thanks for any further advice

OSX 10.13.6 High Sierra, dovecot 2.3.2.1
dovecot starts up and runs but dies as soon as my mail client makes a request with log and config below.
And advice appreciated.
Thanks
