Hello,
I'm new to dovecot, trying to configure a Postfix/Dovecot system.
Got everything in place - smtp with dovecot SASL and imap working fine,
maildir is created, thunderbird logs in successfuly .. but the Dovecot
LDA gives me this error on delivery: "Couldn't create internal raw
storage: Unknown mail storage driver raw".
I tried searching the configuration manual, reference, google and this
list's archives, but found no clue. Checked the source, but it will take
me some time to figure out what is a storage driver and where is the
"raw" one hiding, so if somebody could help, please ..
I did it with userdb static initially - uid=dovecot_mail,
gid=dovecot_mail, home=/usr/local/storage/mail/%d/%n
but after reading, that some passdbs don't work with deliver&static, I
moved everything to the db (found out that prefetch isn't working with
deliver btw - moans about userdb_ entries not present, while the imap
finds them and works happily). It didn't help.
