Thanks for the report. Unfortunately, I'm unable to reproduce this in a clean stretch environment, so I'm downgrading to normal for the time being. > Mar 04 15:34:10 utopia dovecot[55800]: Error: service(imap-login): > listen(*, 143) failed: Address already in use So, there's something else listening on IMAP port 143 and > root@utopia:/etc/exim4# netstat -lapute | grep 143 ^ this command will never show it, because the port will show up as "imap" and not 143, since you didn't pass the -n flag.
