Hello!<br>
<br>
While searching for an explanation for the fact that after updating
to Dovecot 2.3.17_1 (FreeBSD 12.2) I suddenly stopped receiving
emails and following error messages appeared in the dovecot.log,<br>
<font size="2"><br>
<i>Error: lmtp-server: conn unix:uid=125 [1]: rcpt

<br>
<font size="2"><i>Problem confirmed. This is a 2.3.17 regression.

<br>
<br>
But what exactly does your answer mean for those affected?<br>
<br>
That all users who use Dovecot and use the whole thing without
"mail_home" and only with "mail_location", must wait until a BugFix
appears to be able to receive emails again?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance and have a nice advent sunday<br>

<br>
P. S.:<br>
In my case dovecot -n shows<br>
<br>
<i>mail_location = maildir:/var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n</i><i><br>
</i><i>mail_home = /var/mail/vhosts/%d/%n<br>
<br>
</i>so mail_home is even set!<i><br>
</i><br>
