Hi Steffen,

248 is a dovecot, 202 is dovenull, both users are in theirs groups 
across. If I change ownership of /usr/local/dovecot to dovecot.dovecot, 
then dovecot is correcting it to root.root for some reason. Does it mean 
that dovecot should be running as root only?

What does it mean / here? is it / in filesystem or it is / for dovecot 
in /usr/local/dovecot ?

May 01 14:36:00 master: Warning: Killed with signal 15 (by pid=37695 
uid=0 code=kill)
this was caused by restarting of Dovecot.
