Hello,

i build the beta3 of dovecot 2.0 on Opensolaris (SunOS sol 5.11 snv_134 i86pc i386), restarted and dovecot logs the following error. I created the directory path /var/run/dovecot/login and voila, imap is starting up without any problems. But as soon as i reboot the PC (it is only a pseudo private server), the new directory gets deleted (as expected and planed, as fa as i know), but not to be (re)created.

Not a big problem, but i think it is worth to mention it. Perhaps i am wrong and messed something completely up, in that case i would be glad to receive a clue. Thanks, bye, jürgen

Permissions of /var/run/dovecot are drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 573 Mär 15 21:03 dovecot
