Ok I added the two users _dovecot & _dovenull to mail group, still get 
same error "Too many extra groups"


# grep mail /etc/group /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
/etc/group:mail:*:6:_teamsserver,_dovecot,_dovenull
/etc/group:_mailman:*:78:
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_debug = yes
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_gid = mail
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_location = 
mbox:~/Mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_privileged_group = mail
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_access_groups = mail
/usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:mail_uid = _dovecot

20180810-113132 imap(mkm)<68466></AfJRhdzHNt/AAAB>: Fatal: 
setgroups(mail,505) failed: Too many extra groups

Thanks
Mike
