Re: [Dovecot] could someone check my conf files for dovecot and postfix

I get this error in my log
May 6 20:33:00 craftboard dovecot: IMAP(support.perlygates.com): mail_location: maildir: Unknown setting: mbox May 6 20:33:00 craftboard dovecot: IMAP(support.perlygates.com): Fatal: Namespace initialization failed
I'm not sure what mbox is. But I am using the Maildir/ in conf file Where is mbox set at?

This looks ok.

There's no reason this error could come from that above config file. So I bet your problem is that you installed dovecot-postfix package, and Ubuntu is actually using /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf (or something like that) and that config file is broken.
