I have a mailing server setup based on Debian Stable that uses
postfix for IMAP and SMTP and dovecot for internel mail handling,
You mean, Postfix for SMTP, Dovecot for IMAP.
Possible.
like filtering, sorting into users inboxes etc. I now wanted to
set dovecot to not write to syslog, but to dedicated files in
/var/log/dovecot. While everything indicates that this happens
successfully, postfix will soon start logging complaints:
May 13 20:55:37 mail postfix/local[2824184]: 95BCF1000A9:
to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=3.2,
delays=1.9/0.29/0/1.1,
dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output:
lda(user): Error: net_connect_unix(/run/dovecot/stats-writer)
failed: Permission denied Can't open log file
/var/log/dovecot/error.log: Permission denied )
That is a DOVECOT error message from the DOVECOT local delivery agent
(lda).

Why does it say postfix/local though? So you are sure this error can't
have been caused by any interaction with postfix?

Hi Richard
though probably not relevant to your current issue, one thing to watch
out for with the approach you are using is the value of postfix
parameter postfix mailbox_size_limit. This value applies to all files
written by the lda process that postfix spawns, not just the mailbox
files, so also applies to log file sizes.
