Hi,
Today I was testing the last dovecot release 2.3 from the dovecot repo
on ubuntu 16.04. (I upgraded from 2.2.23)
I cannot recall if I noticed it before, but doveconf -n not showing all
changes.
To be able to track my changes, I don't touch the config files provided
in conf.d/ anymore, but I write them in local.conf (I did in the past so
doveconf -n still shows something)
I was testing the new submission service so I added to local.conf:
protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve submission
service submission-login {
inet_listener submission {
# test
port = 588
}
}
submission_relay_host = 127.0.0.1
after restarting dovecot, submission works, mails get relayed. However
doveconf -n shows:
protocols = imap pop3 lmtp sieve
This is very confusing.

Sorry for the noise, local.conf wasn't readable by a normal user, so it wasn't tried (!include vs !include_try) Marc Marc Weustink wrote:> Hi, > > Today I was testing the last dovecot release 2.3 from the dovecot repo > on ubuntu 16.04.

Hi, You could argue that doveconf trying to read a file to which it has no access, could yield a warning in the output along the same lines as invalid configuration lines. I don't know if it does that?
