Hello all, Trying an Install of Dovecot 1.0rc15. We have previously used 1.0b8 without too many troubles. starting Dovecot 1.0rc15 yields:

Dec 1 16:31:08 mailtest1 dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.rc15 starting up Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: pop3-login: Aborted login: rip=172.30.0.3, lip=172.30.0.30 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: auth(default): Socket already exists: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 last message repeated 7 times Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14664 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14665 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14666 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14667 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14668 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14669 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14670 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14671 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: child 14672 (auth) returned error 89 Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: auth(default): Socket already exists: /var/run/dovecot/auth-client Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: Temporary failure in creating login processes, slowing down for now Dec 1 16:31:09 mailtest1 dovecot: I/O leak: 0x804d720 (47)

and then it dies. Any thoughts on that which I am doing wrong?

dovecot.conf currently looks like such: protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s disable_plaintext_auth = no login_greeting = amigo.net ready. mail_location = maildir:%h/Maildir namespace private { separator = . prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes hidden = no } mail_extra_groups = mail mmap_disable = yes lock_method = dotlock first_valid_uid = 465 valid_chroot_dirs = /var/mail/virtual maildir_copy_with_hardlinks = yes protocol imap { mail_plugins = quota imap_quota trash login_greeting_capability = yes imap_client_workarounds = outlook-idle }

protocol pop3 { pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv mail_plugins = quota pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh } protocol lda { postmaster_address = postmaster@amigo.net } auth_default_realm = amigo.net auth_username_translation = %@ auth_username_format = %Ln@%d auth_worker_max_count = 60 auth default { mechanisms = plain login apop digest-md5 cram-md5 passdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf } userdb prefetch { } user = vmail count = 10 socket listen { master { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0660 user = postfix group = mail } client { path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client mode = 0660 } } } plugin { quota = maildir trash = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-trash.conf }
