Hi,

I'm new to Dovecot. I'm trying to start Dovecot(2.0.9) but I'm getting an error. I think the error is because I'm doing a tutorial for an old version of Devcot(1.x.x).

What I get is the following:

[code] [root@mailserver dovecot]# service dovecot start Starting Dovecot Imap: doveconf: Warning: NOTE: You can get a new clean config file with: doveconf -n > dovecot-new.conf doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:1: protocols=imaps is no longer necessary, remove it doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:1: protocols=pop3s is no longer necessary, remove it doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:5: ssl_cert_file has been replaced by ssl_cert = <file doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:6: ssl_key_file has been replaced by ssl_key = <file doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:8: namespace private {} has been replaced by namespace { type=private } doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:24: add auth_ prefix to all settings inside auth {} and remove the auth {} section completely doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:25: auth_user has been replaced by service auth { user } doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:27: passdb sql {} has been replaced by passdb { driver=sql } doveconf: Warning: Obsolete setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:31: userdb static {} has been replaced by userdb { driver=static } [ OK ]

[/code]

My dovecot.conf have the following:

[code] protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_location = maildir:/home/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir

ssl_cert_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem

namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes }

protocol lda { log_path = /home/vmail/dovecot-deliver.log auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master postmaster_address = postmaster@example.com }

protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv }

auth default { user = root

passdb sql {
    args = /etc/dovecot-sql.conf
}

userdb static {
    args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/home/vmail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes
}

socket listen {
    master {
        path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
        mode = 0600
        user = vmail
    }

    client {
        path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
        mode = 0660
        user = postfix
        group = postfix
    }
}

} [/code]

Any clues on how can I adapt this configuration file to Dovecot 2.0.9?

Best Regards,
