[Dovecot] vpopmail directory permissions denied
I've moved from a postfix setup to a qmail/vpopmail setup
I've setup the dovecot.conf file for vpopmail
That works fine, users can log in, but the problem is when they go to see their folders.
Nothing is there. INBOX, Drafts, nothing. This is using any imap client, imp, evolution, outlook, outlook express
This is using 99.14 and the latest vpopmail/qmail
I looked at the directory structure and everything is there.
The dovecot log file says something about permissions denied.
I am using freebsd 4.10
Anybody have a clue on whats going on?

Being experienced with both, I can tell you this was a bad idea. What was the reasoning behind it?
This is using 99.14 and
1.0-stable is recommended.
the latest vpopmail/qmail
"The latest qmail" was A.D. 2001.

Then the permissions are probably wrong. The dovecot user has to have permissions to read and write the files and directories created by vpopmail.
I would strongly suggest that you learn the basics of Unix file permissions before proceeding.
mail to this address is discarded unless "/dev/rob0"
