Hello,

I tried to install dovecot 2.0 beta3 and deliver seems to look for its config file in unusual places.
In my exim logs, I get:
010-03-17 13:39:24 [31257] 1NrsWt-0004T0-1K <em...@example.com>: dovecot_delivery transport output: lda: Fatal: User lookup failed: net_connect_unix(/opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf) failed: No such file or directory 2010-03-17 13:39:24 [31257] 1NrsWt-0004T0-1K == em...@example.com (em...@example.com) <em...@example.com> R=local_user T=dovecot_delivery defer (0): Child process of dovecot_delivery transport returned 75 (could mean temporary error) from command: /opt/dovecot/libexec/dovecot/deliver

Dovecot have been started with the following command:
/opt/dovecot/sbin/dovecot -F -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot2.conf
Furthermore, it has been compiled with:
--prefix=/opt/dovecot --sysconfdir=/etc
I don't see why it searches for /opt/dovecot/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf



Also, I didn't really find out how to convert the v1.2 config snippet:
auth default {
  mechanisms = digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm login plain
  passdb passwd-file {
    args = /etc/cram.pwd
  }
  userdb passwd {
  }
  userdb passwd-file {
    args = /etc/passwd
  }
  socket listen {
    client {
      path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
      mode = 0666
    }
  }
  user = exim
}

I tried the following, but it does not seem to work as I get an authentication socket protocol error

service auth {
  unix_listener /var/run/dovecot/auth-client {
    mode = 0666
  }
}

Thanks for you help
