marco, Dovecot configurations are split across multiple files. If service imap-login is defined in both dovecot.conf and conf.d/10-master.conf, this can cause conflicts. Fix: Remove the service imap-login block from dovecot.conf (keep it only in 10-master.conf). Ensure 10-master.conf cont

Any reason why the imap-listener port is set to 0 and not 143 or commented out? Have you checked if dovecot is listening on 143? On 21/01/2025 17:50, Marco Fioretti via dovecot wrote: Greetings, I was just tasked with rebuilding from scratch the mail server of an NGO, on a brand new Ubuntu 2
