[Dovecot] MySQL Auth and default_mail_env

Thanks for the responses.

I did a check in every directory and it seems to have been 
the permissions on the runtime directory. 

Unfortunately the logs don't indicate that but it is working now.

Well, you need the mail server and imap server both able to write to these
directories, so I would suggest putting both users in the same group and
setting the driectory permissions to 770 and group ownership to the common
group.
