[Dovecot] Error by POP3 login
Hello!
After the success to get Dovecot finally running i have now another problem, but don't know what is wrong there, this is the message i got:
pop3(contact@maddy.cc): Failed to create storage with data: /var/vmail/maddy.cc/contact/
What does it mean?
Thanks for help!

sounds to me like some kind of user/group permissions problem...

I guess you're using 0.99.x Doveocot? 1.0betas give better error messages and work better in general, so I'd suggest using them instead.
This error anyway means that your default_mail_env (or mail from userdb) doesn't tell Dovecot what /var/vmail/maddy.cc/contact/ is. Is it a mbox or maildir? So prefix the path with mbox: or maildir: and it should work.
