Greetings!

My ultimate goal is to have fetchmail/getmail poll from POP3/IMAP servers
and deliver mail into Dovecot mailboxes.  This does not work because the
Dovecot LDA for some reason fails.

I believe I have narrowed down the problem to dovecot-auth not finding my
userdb.  But, I am able to connect to dovecot via IMAP in my MUA and preform
operations (read, delete mail, create folders).  This leads me to believe my
userdb is setup correctly.

Does anyone have any idea as to why dovecot-auth would not find my userdb?
(Configuration is below).

The package is from Ubuntu Hardy, but I can build from source if you think
it'll fix this.

Thanks for any responses,
Carl
