Hello list. I have just a generic question. Exim delivers fine to dovecot-lda. My problems are the logfiles. Whenever I recieve a message Exim writes to dovecot.log as the user who recieves the mail. This forces me to have that logfile world writeable. I don't really like that. How do you guys deal with that? Here my transport: dovecot_delivery: driver = pipe # You may or may not want to add -d $local_part@$domain depending on if you need a userdb lookup done. command = /usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda -f $sender_address message_prefix message_suffix log_output delivery_date_add envelope_to_add return_path_add #group = mail #mode = 0660 temp_errors = 64 : 69 : 70: 71 : 72 : 73 : 74 : 75 : 78 thanks and best regards t.
