No, but now I get an interessting new error sometimes when I try to start:

Aug 16 13:51:31 testmail dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test79 starting up
Aug 16 13:51:32 testmail dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting
down
Aug 16 13:51:32 testmail dovecot: auth(default):
net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/auth-worker.13176) failed: No such
file or directory
Aug 16 13:51:32 testmail dovecot: child 13176 (auth) returned error 89

But most of the time I get the old error:

Aug 16 13:52:10 testmail dovecot: Dovecot v1.0-test79 starting up
Aug 16 13:52:11 testmail dovecot: auth-worker(default): mysql: Connect
failed to localhost (mailbas): Access denied for user
'my_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) - waiting for 1 seconds
before retry

Hope that helps.
