[Dovecot] No inbox for user error
Hi, I'm getting 'no inbox for user' error. Set up sendmail, and can send and receive mail using Webmin/Usermin both to internal addresses and external ones. But Dovecot gives the no inbox error. I've tried telnetting in and get:
+OK dovecot ready. USER myob -ERR Unknown command USER myob +UK PASS <password> +OK Logged in. -ERR No INBOX for user.
No idea why the first USER command gives an error.
And, of course, when I try using Evolution I get 'Cannot get POP summary'.
The Dovecot config file, less all the commented out bits is:
imap_listen = [::] pop3_listen = [::] imaps_listen = [::] pop3s_listen = [::] ssl_cert_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/dovecot.pem ssl_key_file = /etc/pki/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem login_dir = /var/run/dovecot-login login_chroot = yes login = imap login_user = dovecot login = pop3 default_mail_env = mbox_locks = fcntl auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = passwd auth_passdb = pam auth_user = root
Any and all ideas very welcome. I'm a total newbie at this server business... Thanks in advance. Ron
