dovecot - Oct 2005 - dovecot 1.0alpha3 passdb

I upgraded dovecot from 0.99.20050712-2 to 1.0.alpha3-1 (Debian testing).

In /etc/dovecot.conf I had:

    passdb = passwd-file /etc/imap.passwd

I modified dovecot.conf from 1.0alpha3 to have:

    passdb passwd-file {
        # Path for passwd-file
        args = /etc/imap.passwd
    }

Is that correct?

Authentication no longer works, and /var/log/mail.info shows:

Oct  7 22:35:39 XXX dovecot: auth(default): passdb(XXX,XXX): passdb didn't
return userdb entries
Oct  7 22:35:39 XXX dovecot: auth(default): userdb(XXX,XXX): user not found from
userdb
Oct  7 22:35:39 XXX dovecot: imap-login: Internal login failure:
user=<XXX>, method=PLAIN, rip=XXX, lip=XXX, TLS


Help, please.

It seems to be ok. Please show your userdb settings.
