[Dovecot] problems implementing dovecot LDA with Postfix
Per the instructions here http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA and here http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix I set postmaster_address = postmaster at hardwarefreak.com in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver in /etc/postfix/main.cf When I restart dovecot I get this: [07:17:00][root at greer]/etc/dovecot$ /etc/init.d/dovecot restart Restarting IMAP/POP3 mail server: dovecotError: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 754: Unknown setting: postmaster_address Fatal: Invalid configuration in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf failed! And after restarting Postfix and sending a test message from a gmail account I get this in the mail log: May 9 07:26:09 greer postfix/qmgr[13384]: AEE976C32C: from=<snugmonster at gmail.com>, size=1628, nrcpt=1 (queue active) May 9 07:26:09 greer dovecot: deliver(stan): Fatal: postmaster_address setting not given May 9 07:26:09 greer postfix/local[13392]: AEE976C32C: to=<stan at hardwarefreak.com>, relay=local, delay=1.4, delays=1.3/0.03/0/0.04, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure) The server is Debian Lenny 5.0.4 with Postfix 2.5.5 and Dovecot 1.2.11 from Lenny backports. Any ideas? Everything I've found via Google relating to this Dovecot startup error has to do with people converting old dovecot.conf files to a new dovecot version. -- Stan
