Hi,

im getting the fallowing error. from dovecot-lda log

Apr 25 17:30:41 lda(jamal@example.com): Fatal: setgid(5003(vmail) from userdb lookup) failed with euid=8(mail), gid=12(mail), egid=12(mail): Operation not permitted (This binary should probably be called with process group set to 5003(vmail) instead of 12(mail))

this error occur if im using different uid and gid part from mail uid.. jamal@example.com:{PLAIN}123:5003:5003::/var/vmail/example.com/jamal/::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir

but if i use mail uid it work fine..
jamal@example.com:{PLAIN}123:8:12::/var/vmail/example.com/jamal/::userdb_mail=maildir:~/Maildir

i tried using multiple uids as mention in wiki2.dovecot.org/LDA bye setting up setuid-root for dovecot-lda but im getting on-there error from sendmail :-
