[Dovecot] Using a BSDI 4.X system for Dovecot

[The Doctor]

It might be old but still worked.


I am using Dovecot 1.2.11 hoping to replace QualComm Eudora and
Cyrus IMAP.

dovecot -n yields

    args: /etc/master.passwd
  userdb:
    driver: passwd
  userdb:
    driver: passwd-file
    args: /etc/passwd    

And running SSL here

In my logs I see

Aug 17 00:35:10 doctor dovecot: POP3(user1): Fatal: setregid(100(user),14(mail)) failed with euid=0(root): Operation not permitted
Aug 17 00:35:15 doctor dovecot: IMAP(user2): Fatal: setregid(100(user),14(mail)) failed with euid=0(root): Operation not permitted 


Question: What are am I not doing right?
