Thanks for your reply, but I still don't understand how to fix my
issue. I had a look at the wiki page and it says: "auth_socket_path =
/var/run/dovecot/auth-master
UNIX socket path to master authentication server to find users."
The file auth-master doesn't exist anywhere on my system, and the wiki
doesn't tell me how to create it or what its contents should look
like. So I still don't understand how I make dovecot provide the auth
socket.
