I'm trying to set up a temporary mailserver using Debian Sarge and
Dovecot 1.0 with maildir format. My only previous experience has been
on a simple imap server with mbox format.
I have read the wiki documentation and searched the archives, but can't
tie down my problem. The log tells me
Info: passwd-file(anne) : unknown user.
I have set
auth_userdb = passwd-file /etc/imap.passwd
auth_passdb = passwd-file /etc/imap.passwd
and created the /etc/imap.passwd file as
anne:{plain}mypassword:1000:1000::/home/anne
What have I missed?
Anne
