What about this: > Dec 23 12:08:49 mail1 dovecot: IMAP(geoff.sw...@test.com): > open(/home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir/dovecot.index.log) > failed: Permission denied (euid=5000(vmail) egid=5000(vmail) missing > +r perm: /home/vmail/test.com/geoff.sweet/Maildir/dovecot.index.log) Is that file also owned by vmail:vmail? The error message shows that vmail user doesn't have read access to the file. If that file is also owned by vmail, I have only two ideas: a) You have multiple vmail users. See that ls -ln shows the uids to be actually 5000 and not something else. b) SELinux or something similar is preventing the access to the files.
