[Dovecot] utime() failed with index file [...] Operation not permitted
Hello,
I'm running the dovecot backports from jones.dk. Everything is working fine so far, but whenever someone is logging in (IMAP or POP 3) I get the following error message in my mail.log:
[...] pop3(frederik): utime() failed with index file /var/mboxes/frederik/.INBOX/.imap.index: Operation not permitted
[...] imap(jako1): utime() failed with index file /var/mboxes/jako1/.INBOX/.imap.index: Operation not permitted
Rights for the ".imap.index" file are:
-rwxrwxrwx 1 Debian-e mailserv 3792 Sep 21 11:50 .imap.index
Thank you very much for your support.

Please tell the dovecot version, not only your source of binary install.
(and don't expect jones.dk source to always be on the bleeding edge...)

I'm using those four packages:
dovecot-common_0.99.11-1.99.jones.1_i386.deb dovecot-imapd_0.99.11-1.99.jones.1_i386.deb dovecot-pop3d_0.99.11-1.99.jones.1_i386.deb dovecot_0.99.11-1.99.jones.1_all.deb
And I just found the problem. The ".imap.index" file needs to be *owned* by the dovecot user.
Thank you four your help.
