Im sorry to ask another basic question, but Ive tried to find this answer for several hours now and it eludes me. Im getting the following when dovecot tries to deliver an email:

May 6 19:29:21 mydomain dovecot: lda: Debug: auth input: jeff home=/opt/imapdata/j/jeff/INBOX uid=1001 gid=999 May 6 19:29:21 mydomain dovecot: lda(jeff): Fatal: setgid(999(vmail) from userdb lookup) failed with euid=999(vmail), gid=500(jeff), egid=500(jeff): Operation not permitted (This binary should probably be called with process group set to 999(vmail) instead of 500(jeff))

I cannot seem to find where its trying to call dovecot-lda with uid(jeff) at? AFAIK Ive set everything up to use/deliver as 'vmail'. 'jeff' is the only person on this box with a unix account which is uid 500, but how do I make it use vmail instead?

Thanks for the help! Jeff
