dovecot - Aug 2005 - vpopmail directory permissions denied

I've moved from a postfix setup to a qmail/vpopmail setup

I've setup the dovecot.conf file for vpopmail

That works fine, users can log in, but the problem is when they go to see their
folders.

Nothing is there. INBOX, Drafts, nothing.  This is using any imap client, imp,
evolution, outlook, outlook express

This is using 99.14 and
the latest vpopmail/qmail

I looked at the directory structure and everything is there.

The dovecot log file says something about permissions denied.

I am using freebsd 4.10

Anybody have a clue on whats going on?

Being experienced with both, I can tell you this was a bad idea. What 
was the reasoning behind it?

"The latest qmail" was A.D. 2001.

Then the permissions are probably wrong. The dovecot user has to have 
permissions to read and write the files and directories created by 
vpopmail.

I would strongly suggest that you learn the basics of Unix file 
permissions before proceeding.
