Hi all,
I'm trying to get the sieve plugin to work, but with little result. I'm following http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA, http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Postfix and http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sieve but it won't work. As I have virtual users from several virtual domains, I added the "virtual users - with lookup" section from http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA, but now dovecot fails to start. My dovecot.conf is as follows: # 1.0.13: /etc/dovecot.conf login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3-login mail_location: maildir:/data/mail/mydomain/%Ln maildir_copy_with_hardlinks: yes maildir_copy_preserve_filename: yes mail_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap mail_executable(pop3): /usr/libexec/dovecot/pop3 mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_plugin_dir(pop3): /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 imap_client_workarounds(default): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh imap_client_workarounds(imap): delay-newmail outlook-idle netscape-eoh imap_client_workarounds(pop3): outlook-idle pop3_client_workarounds(default): pop3_client_workarounds(imap): pop3_client_workarounds(pop3): outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh auth default: username_format: %Lu debug: yes debug_passwords: yes passdb: driver: ldap args: /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf userdb: driver: static args: uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/mail/vmail socket: type: listen master: path: /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode: 384 user: vmail group: vmail plugin: sieve: /home/virtual/%u/sieve The problem seems to be in the auth-master path, for /var/log/maillog shows: Apr 14 16:14:44 termserv dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.13 starting up Apr 14 16:14:44 termserv dovecot: auth(default): unlink(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Is a directory Apr 14 16:14:44 termserv dovecot: Auth process died too early - shutting down Apr 14 16:14:44 termserv dovecot: child 12385 (auth) returned error 89 Can anyone point me in the right direction?
