Hi,

What is the correct format to specify multple ports in dovecot 2. With dovecot 1.2 listen = *:143 *:6188 worked fine. I cannot find any mention in the wiki2 about the different combinations of listen, address and port parameters and dovecot complains about the combinations I tried.

Does not seem to work

1. inet_listener imap { listen = *:143 *:6188 }

2. inet_listener imap { address = *:143 *:6188 }

3. inet_listener imap { port = 143, 6188 or port = 143 6188 }

This start dovecot, but roundcube will not connect on port 143, although Thunderbird will connect on 1432 and 6188 listen = *, ::

1. inet_listener imap { port 143 port = 6188 }

This should work:

listen = *:143, *:6188

-- Daniel

I tried that and get doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 68: Unknown setting: listen. Line 68 refers to listen = *:143, *:6188

OK, it seems that it's needed to specify multiple ports this way:

service imap-login { inet_listener imap { port = 143 } inet_listener imap_second { port = 6188 } }

Ok, that works. Is this listed somewhere? What is the syntax if you want to add more ports.
