I continuously get user authentication errors. I suspect that the problem is

# doveadm pw -s SHA512-CRYPT
Enter new password:
Retype new password:

Looks OK.
I have this at the database:
sqlite> SELECT * from users;
lev|logonex.eu|$6$1cCNWIMCTpuqmexO$cCq7nDEga1xza3967nZ.BFZaGWNoYwjnNfSCvZE/jGzYAY1hLWE1iHR1KYaO.mvVE4WVdDSrvPNtfwAUn/yk3/|/home/lev|1001|1001
I'm not too hip about SQLite and schemas so I don't know about all
the other fields you have and whether you're parsing it correctly.
Need doveconf -n to see your SQL query.
I've tried adding this to the database, but still no luck. :-(
{SHA512-CRYPT}$6$kbUEfz/Mcgpctv/s$uNQGOL/2F01Br.vx0twozVi6v.KJAHZV0OQ7yOFwD9YCloh7UJmeFe7WrgUez9Q5xXdrNOU5q9H8fE3FU2ok9.
How does it relate to the previous hash? Same password but another salt
and prepended with {SHA512-CRYPT}?
The other thing I want to avoid is the home directory and UID and GID. Is
there any way for dovecot to use logical, non UNIX users so there's no need to
have a user database and an sqlite database?
Yes, you want a virtual user setup.

You still need a user/password database of some sort unless you're
contemtemplating some wild free-for-all access with a single shared
password.
