Hey,I have recently set up Dovecot on my server but I have trouble with using it.

I'm using Dovecot 1.0.rc15, SQL password and user database with the SQL config files provided on the home page.

I'm using Thunderbird to connect to Dovecot.

When trying to connect it gives me an internal server error: User not found

Is there anything else I need to do before I can use Dovecot?

Here's my configuration, any help would be appreciated.
