[Dovecot] failed with uid Permission denied
Hi Does somebody know the workaround I have some users, who are able to log in to dovecot but others not.... even the failpermissions in directories are same. Also mbox folder is excatly same mail
Some settings in /etc/dovecot.conf
first_valid_uid = 500 last_valid_uid = 1500 first_valid_gid = 500 last_valid_gid = 515
default_mail_env = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/spool/mail/%u
So the "someuser" is able to log in but "testuser" not log from testuser logging in
somehost imap-login: Login: testuser [193.x.x.x] somehost dovecot: chdir(/home/guest/testuser) failed with uid 893: Permission denied somehost dovecot: child 8729 (imap) returned error 89
Any idea???

These don't really matter.
So the "someuser" is able to log in but "testuser" not log from testuser logging in
somehost imap-login: Login: testuser [193.x.x.x] somehost dovecot: chdir(/home/guest/testuser) failed with uid 893: Permission denied
Who owns /home/guest/testuser? It should be the user with UID 893. And does that user have execute access to /home and /home/guest?
