Quoting Timo Sirainen <t...@iki.fi>:

But in the example for the config file the text reads:

[QUOTE]
service auth {
 unix_listener auth-userdb {
   mode = 0600
   user = vmail # User running dovecot-lda
#group = vmail # Or alternatively mode 0660 + dovecot-lda user in this group
 }
}
[/QUOTE]

Now you've gone outside the "Multiple UIDs" section in the wiki. There are the 3 different sections of how to run dovecot-lda a different way:

 * with a lookup
 * without a lookup
 * multiple UIDs

None of their documentation is compatible with each others.

Ok, I must be misunderstanding. I understand that the multiple UIDs limitation relates to the fact that access to the auth-userdb socket is restricted, is that incorrect? Following that forward, where the example shows that you can set group access to the socket and change permissions to 0660 I took to mean you can now have multiple users so long as they are in the correct group (ie vmail). Which contradicts the statement that you cannot work with multiple UIDs.
Can you put that straight if I got it wrong?

thanks in advance, Andy.
