Hi all,
I'm facing a problem when a user (q and g in this example) is logging into dovecot. Can anybody tell some hint?
Thanks in advance.
George

You have passdb, but no userdb.
/etc/passwd: ... g:x:1000:1000:test1,,,:/home/g:/bin/bash q:x:1001:1001:test2,,,:/home/q:/bin/bash
To use /etc/passwd as userdb, you need to add userdb passwd {}
That's it, thanks a lot.
