Hi everyone

I am not the dovecot guru and i would appreciate if anyone could help me on my problems.

I am running a mail server on dovecot 1.2 and want to migrate to dovecot 2. I have edited the conf file and now using the new keywords and got everything fixed but the following error message still exists, when i try to start dovecot.

doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 1036: Unknown setting: auth_socket doveconf: Error: managesieve-login: dump-capability process returned 89 doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file ./dovecot.conf line 1036: Unknown setting: auth_socket

My conf file looks like

auth_socket listen { master { # Master socket provides access to userdb information. It's typically # used to give Dovecot's local delivery agent access to userdb so it # can find mailbox locations. path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0600 # Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root) user = vmail #group = } client { # The client socket is generally safe to export to everyone. Typical use # is to export it to your SMTP server so it can do SMTP AUTH lookups # using it. path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth # path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } }

I would appreciate any hints and help.

Mit freundlichem Gruß
