You must run /usr/sbin/dovecot as root
The permissions of /var/log/dovecot-deliver.log are 666 (because the
process write as "authenticate user")
The permissions of /var/log/dovecot.log are 600 (because the process
write as root)

Hi all,
I am new to dovecot, i had installed dovecot in RH9 machine and when i tried to
run( as root) it, i am getting the below message in the log file.
dovecot: Jun 11 18:57:16 Fatal: Login process must not run as root
I have done the installation as below ( as normal user):
./configure

sude make install
When i try to run as a normal user i am getting the error like
Error: Can't write to log directory /var/log: Permission denied
Can anybody tell me where i am doing mistake ?
