Thank you! Even setting the /var/run/dovecot tree to all chmod 777s
doesn't help. I'm probably mis-remembering the ownership of auth-master,
in my original note. I haven't seen it since I left my notes at work.
With regard to this maillog entry:
> postfix/pipe[29452]: 60990FA01BA: to=<recipi...@example-receive.com>, \
> relay=spamassassin, delay=6, delays=0.33/0.01/0/5.7, dsn=4.3.0, \
> status=deferred (temporary failure)
It IS a (temporary failure), because soon after I revert to the simple:
>> mailbox_command = /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver
the message arrives to the recipient user's mailbox.
It's the spamassassin => deliver handoff and user SWITCH that seems to be
problematic.
But then, my brain is all garbled, at this point, so I can't really trust
any of my logic. I'll check back in, tomorrow.
Thanks, again.
