Hi all,
I have run successfully a postfix/dovecot installation some time ago.
Now, setting up a new server, I am lost with some error messages.
I would appreciate some help.
+++
f42252se dovecot: pop3-login: Error: auth: connect(login) in directory /
failed: Permission denied (euid=113(<getpwu
id() error>) egid=65534(<getgrgid() error>) missing +x perm: /, dir
owned by 5000:5000 mode=0750)
+++
This is the error message I get.
"directory /" is a little bit courious to me.
Here my dovecot config:
+++
# 2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

}

You probably see it immediatly what I fail to see.
Thanks in advance

Possibly some user has its mail_home or home directory set to / Which home is displayed for the affected $username? doveadm user $username Then set mail_home correctly for the user: mail_home = /mail/%d/%n or in the dovecot userdb. Use variables from http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Variables Regards Daniel -- https://plus.google.com/103021802792276734820
