Ah ... got me thinking about the .forward file: >> In /home/pete, the .forward file is: >> | "/usr/libexec/dovecot/dovecot-lda" Adding the -k flag (Don't clear all environment at startup) to dovecot-lda fixes the problem. Not sure why the environment was cleared though beforehand. Perhaps to do with the addition of the import_environment variable in 2.0.11 ?!? Anyhow ... problem now looks solved. Thanks for the assistance. Pete
