Hi, After upgrading to 1.2 I started getting fchown errors in the log. They look like: Jul 12 18:32:54 jukebox dovecot: deliver(kim): fchown(/data/mail/kim/.lists.mythtv-users/tmp/1247416373.M857540P19162.jukebox.alleroedderne.adsl.dk, -1, 500(k im)) failed: Operation not permitted (egid=12(mail), group based on /data/mail/kim/.lists.mythtv-users) I have tried to get rid of the by changing the group of the files to "mail" but that does not help. I can not find a dovecot option that is documented to set the group to %u which would seem ideal. Any advice? Thanks in advance, Kim % dovecot -n # 1.2.0: /etc/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.i686 i686 Fedora release 10 (Cambridge) ext3 protocols: imaps listen: * login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_location: maildir:/data/mail/%u auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd plugin: sieve: ~/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir: ~/sieve

So either: a) Change .lists.mythtv-users group to "mail" b) chmod .lists.mythtv-users to 0700
