Hi Christian, I tried to amend the acl the last time but it kept giving me error stating "=" was needed. Could you please just help me amend the file below with where you have the acl plugin appended .

Thanks Kevin

Hello, I have some email authentication error with dovecot. Could someone tell me what is the problem that is indicated below? Is it due to some plugin?

yes as the log says

...

you should load the acl plugin... seems the "acl" entry from your last mail is now missing.

Dear Christian, Yes. It works now. Thanks a bunch. Kevin

Thanks Kevin

see http://wiki2.dovecot.org/ACL

# Listen addresses. # - '*' means all available IPv4 addresses. # - '[::]' means all available IPv6 addresses. # Listen on all available addresses by default listen = * [::]

#base_dir = /var/run/dovecot mail_plugins = quota

you should probably add acl after the quota
