[Dovecot] Fatal: EOF while reading environment from master Error
Hello all! I guess it's a standard reason for joining a mailing list, but I have a problem. For some reason, whenever I try to start dovecot, be it from the xinet.d or from the commandline, I get this rather bizzare error. I can't even work out what it means, so I can't even begin to debug it. There is nothing extra in /var/log/messages, so I'm out of ideas. I've tried it with the default config, as well as with a config that I adjusted to fit the environment. I'm currently out of ideas. I did notice that there is a brief thread on this in the mailing-list archive, but it doesn't seem to point to a solution. Hopefully someone can help. I'm running it with the command /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login I am using the 1.0.alpha1 version, running on RedHat AS 3. thanks in advance.

Start dovecot binary instead. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
