I have noticed several issues with dovecot, trying to run it without <br>
root. Which is preferable in any container environment. Maybe you would <br>
like me to document these somewhere? So at some point they can be <br>
applied.<br>

Hi, I can see those values correctly with the doveconf -nc command. Here <br>
is the part of output:<br>

    Can you check with `doveconf -nc /path/to/director.conf` that the <br>
values are actually set correctly? <br>

        The conf.d files are not included. I have added !include <br>
conf.d/*.conf to director.conf and reloaded the dovecot and director <br>
services. <br>
<br>
        conf.d/10-logging also has the following lines: <br>
<br>
        log_path = /dovecot.log <br>
        info_log_path = $log_path <br>
        debug_log_path = $log_path <br>
<br>
<br>
        The /dovecot.log file still shows empty. Nothing is being <br>
logged to that file. <br>
<br>
<br>

            Do you have !include or !try_include in director.conf? <br>
The conf.d files are not included otherwise. <br>

                        Hello, <br>
<br>
                        We need help with an issue that we are <br>

                        Also how do we enable debugging for <br>
dovecot. Logs doesn't show any info about the issue. <br>
