[Dovecot] how to configure dovecot, Error
Hi,
we are using Squirrelmail, imapd is dovecot. OS is Debian Sarge.
When I want to login with Squirrelmail the connection to the imap-server
is aborted. /var/log/mail.log gives the these log-entries:
Oct 25 14:39:36 webserver dovecot: imap(rs.messegrafik-schreiber.de):
mbox: Can't create root IMAP folder
/home/rs.messegrafik-schreiber.de/mail: Permission denied
Oct 25 14:39:36 webserver dovecot: imap(rs.messegrafik-schreiber.de):
MAIL environment missing and autodetection failed (home
/home/rs.messegrafik-schreiber.de)
Oct 25 14:39:36 webserver dovecot: imap-login: Login:
user=
Need help, thanks.

Does /home/rs.messegrafik-schreiber.de exist? What do you use as passdb and userdb? Are you maybe using SELinux which isn't allowing Dovecot to access /home?
