Right, mail_privileged_group does not work. Setting mail_access_groups = mail does work. The problem is the same in v1.1.11, which is the latest stable version from the atrpms site linked from dovecot.org download for binary packages. Also, how do I get imap to use a dotlock file when accessing the inbox? Similar to pop3_lock_session. Am I confused on how imap works? Mark
