Hello again,

I searched every logfile I could find, but without any results :( How does it usually work? The mail is send by another server and on my server, does postfix receive the email or is it dovecots job? Who puts the mail into that mail directory? I guess it's postfix?

Thank you in advance Bye, Chris

Hello everyone,

I installed postfix and dovecot (imap + pop) on a debian server. I can send emails via postfix and I could receive emails via dovecot before. Yesterday my server got shutdown and restarted and since then, I somehow have some problems. If I send some emails, I don't receive them in /var/vmail/%d/%n/Maildir But the login works fine (pop and imap).

How can I figure out, why there are no mails comming?

Thank you Bye, Chris
