[Dovecot] deliver errors
Hi,
I am using ver 1.0.1 and getting the following errors in mail.log and auth.log respectively. However I can login to imap and retrieve emails no problem, while sending email is also ok.
Jun 27 23:59:21 webmail sm-mta[1889]: l5RIvhQE001865: Warning: program /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver unsafe: Group writable directory
Jun 27 23:27:30 webmail dovecot-auth: (pam_unix) authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=dovecot ruser= rhost=127.0.0.1 user=azher
Can someone plz suggest what can be wrong.

Then it means you're using two passdbs. PAM and something else. Remove PAM. You can easily check what passdbs you have with "dovecot -n".
Hi Timo,
Thnx one of the error is gone due to duplicate passdbs, thnx. However following error is persistant. I restarted my sendmail, dovecot etc. changed the group permission as you mentioned.

This error comes from sendmail. If dovecot directory isn't group
writable, then I don't really have any idea why it's complaining
about that. Is deliver binary group writable? Or other directories
above that?
Hi Timo,
Following is the directory output, plz suggest.
