hello everybody! This's my very first post in dovecot. I'm installing a new server for backup site, with qmail + vpopmail 5.4.32 + dovecot. Production server, more or less outdated, runs with Couier Imap, but everybody know the history.. I've been fighting for several days...And no luck with version 2.0.4, 2.0.3 neither. My first asumption was to review things thousand of times due to newbie condition... This morning I've tried version 1.2.14 and voila! , it works perfectly! The error log with version 2 was the famous unkown user one: dovecot: auth: vpopmail(test4 at adomain.com,10.206.16.10): unknown user test4 user worked perfectly with pop3... Just FYI, is this can help. Regards!
