I am trying to enable rawlogs. I made a directory /home/dovecot/dovecot.rawlog/, changed dovecot.conf to have

Made sure the /home/dovecot/dovecot.rawlog/ could be written to. Even made it 1777 as a test.

Made sure the FreeBSD user database points /home/dovecot as the dovecot user's directory (left shell as nologin).

Should work I think. Does it leave a rawlog process on the background? If not, it didn't think /home/dovecot was the home directory. You can check with auth_debug=yes what it logs as the user's home directory. If that doesn't help, you can ktrace -d the dovecot process and see what path the lstat(<home>/dovecot.rawlog) call uses.
