To obtain a core dump you should enable them in /etc/defaults/dovecot and then restart the daemon with /etc/init.d/dovecot restart You'll find the resulting core file as /var/run/dovecot/core If you want to allow multiple core files try to execute something like echo "core.%p" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern After that the core files will be named like core.<pid> until the next reboot. > > My dovecot setup is quite simple - it's a workstation setup, so I only have > myself as user, and I only allow access from localhost, so no need to do any > bigger encryption or difficult mechanism. It should be using PAM. > To be sure, please attach the output of dovecot -n command to the next email.
