Re: v1.1.beta1 released

So far every thing is up and running well, (OS X 10.4 on a G5 machine).

There are two things:

From the logs:

1. dovecot: fd limit 256 is lower than what Dovecot can use under
   full load (more than 1152). Either grow the limit or change
   login_max_processes_count and max_mail_processes settings

this is of course NOT a dovecot problem, it is just being nice and
saying it can use more than the OS X defaults for open files.

The next come from using the new Dovecot LDA:

in trying to send mail, the following error occurs and I have not
been able to find the setting to change this

2. postfix/qmgr[25767]: 2459A37F612: from=<from-email-address>,
   size=1226, nrcpt=1 (queue active) deliver(to-email-address): auth input: to-email-address deliver(to-email-address): auth input: uid=1000 deliver(to-email-address): auth input: gid=1000 deliver(to-email-address): auth input: home=path/to/ deliver(to-email-address): setgroups() failed: Operation not permitted postfix/pipe[6505]: 2459A37F612: to=<to-email-address>,
   relay=dovecot, delay=984, delays=984/0.03/0/0.06, dsn=4.3.0,
   status=deferred (temporary failure)

The solution so far is to go back to using the Postfix Deliver
option. Where is the setgroups option being set in the LDA?

Thank for you hard work!!
