Hi, I hate to have my first post be a bug, but this drove me crazy for a while.

I compiled the latest version from source and followed the instalation instructions. I then copied the xinetd.d entries from the Wiki and proceded to test.

No matter what I did I could not log on. I found that while I was editing /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf, nothing was hapening. I then started it manualy and found several errors in my editing. :-)

After fixing the errors and getting it to work properly, I went back to running it from xinetd. It would not allow me to log on, nor would it use any of the loging options I set.

After making a symlink from /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf to /etc/dovecot.conf, it worked perfectly.

My suggestions:

1.	Change the Wiki to point out the difference in the config
	file location.

2.	Change the inetd version to default to /usr/local/etc.

3.	Add (and/or document) an option to the inetd version to
	specify config file location.

Thanks,

Geoff. ( A very happy Dovecot user, thanks for a good product).
