Hi everybody,
I have been long (for 2 days) trying, but I really need some help.
I would like to use virtual static users.
I configured my file as indicated in the documentation and then I
created the following directory, with the needed rights (mail account)
and leave them empty :
/var/mail/virtual/<mon_domaine>.fr/toto/
I am not sure that it is the good method, but I understand it as
follows : dovecot looks up in the directories and takes them as
usernames and domain names.
When I try to open the imap box from a client (evolution), I get a
"Unknown error - the server closed the connection" message, that
doesn't
appear in the server's syslog.
My dovecont.conf :

Thank you in advance for any help.
