Hi Thomas

Thank you very much. To wrap the lines does the trick. But as always my dovecot -n is now:

root@S000004:/usr/local/etc/dovecot# dovecot -n

2.0.0: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

OS: Linux 2.6.32-24-generic i686 Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

auth_mechanisms = plain login disable_plaintext_auth = no log_timestamp = %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S mail_location = maildir:/mail/%d/%n/Maildir mail_privileged_group = mail managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = comparator-i;octet comparator-i;ascii-casemap fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date spamtest spamtestplus virustest namespace { inbox = yes location = prefix = INBOX. separator = . } passdb { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf driver = sql } protocols = imap service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { group = vmail mode = 0666 user = vmail }o unix_listener auth-master { mode = 0666 } } ssl_cert = /keys/mail.pem ssl_key = /keys/mail.pem userdb { args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes driver = static } verbose_ssl = yes protocol lda { auth_socket_path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master log_path = /var/log/mail.log postmaster_address = postmaster@delellis.net }

No more errors !!!!!

But when i try to start dovecot the following message appears: root@S000004:/usr/local/etc/dovecot# /etc/init.d/dovecot start Starting DovecotFatal: service(imap-login) User doesn't exist: dovenull

But i am never using a user like dovenull.

Any ideas ??

Mit freundlichem Gruß

See except from ' /etc/dovecot/conf.d/auth-static.conf.ext'

#userdb {

driver = static

args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/home/%u

#}

Not sure why it is not applied, as 'doveconf -n' gives parsed output, so it seems it does not understand the syntax used below:

...

...

userdb { driver=static args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes }

Maybe wrap it to a new line like:

userdb { driver = static args = uid=10000 gid=10000 home=/mail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes }
