Hi all,

Having problems moving from postfix/dovecot/mysq/maildrop existing intall to dovecot LDA

dovecot -n

master.cf (maildrop line commented. -f ${recipient} in maildrop was working ok)

dovecot unix - n n - - pipe flags=DRhu user=vmail:vmail argv=/usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -d ${recipient}

main.cf dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1 # I haven't found any docs about the following must work, but apparently working. virtual_mailbox_domains = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_domains_maps.cf virtual_transport = dovecot

dovecot.log

I'm using vmail:vmail (5000:5000) for all my virtual users and postfix chrooted. I have read the wiki but I'm not using diferrent uids and gids for every user so, I don't understand why deliver is trying to setuid. sorry for my newbie question but my english is not the best and I'm totally lost.

any ideas?

roger
