In rc28 or the upcoming rc29?

For the second test, I created $HOME/.imap and $HOME/.imap/INBOX
directories with the owner and group set to that of the user (just
to make sure the code handled things the same).  Again, I received
the vacation message, but the message which was supposed to be

I have been trying to get a core, but haven't succeeded thus far. I have set "mail_drop_priv_before_exec = yes", but I'm not sure this applies to the LDA... I ran a find to locate the core, but there isn't one. I do

mail_drop_priv_before_exec doesn't affect deliver. Also I don't know if Postfix preserves ulimits.

You could also try running it manually:

echo hello | deliver -d username

Doing so yields this error:

Mar 28 13:41:37 myhostname deliver(myuser): net_connect(/var/opt/ dovecot/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: No such file or directory Not sure how my environment is different than when Postfix calls deliver...

Is the deliver binary the same? What is the correct socket path? Maybe they're using different config files.
