dovecot - Dec 2019 - Suddenly sieve no longer working

Hey,

I have a successful setup with dovecot and sieve and since a few days 
sieve is all of a sudden no
longer working.
I am on OSX and my mta is an older version of postfix (apple supplied).

Has anyone gone through that and has some hints on how to best debug 
(and fix) that?

Thanks a lot
    Heiko

Some more information would be useful, but try setting mail_debug=yes and then
check your log files for more information.

Yeah,  would have provided more if I had more info.

What I needed was to set min processes for lmtp

service lmtp {
   process_min_avail = 1
}

Otherwise there was no lmtp process available

and 2nd in postfix' main.conf I had to add

local_transport = lmtp:unix:private/dovecot-lmtp

I *guess* that this is due to the latest update of
macOS that may have brought new postfix binaries
(at least the time stamps suggest this), where some
settings/defaults have changed.

Thanks for your time
   Heiko
