Hi!,

I Install dovecot version 2.1.16 on CentOS 6.4 x86_64.
When I try to test the installation (by telnet localhost imap) the
following error occurs: "auth: Fatal: Support not compiled in for passdb
driver 'pam'".
I do not discover what caused this.
Here I leave the configuration data and the log.
Thanks
