I'm still searching but hoping someone can offer a clue-stick.
Long story short! I had a server crash suddenly and all I can get at
are the files. Built a new host and copied the data and config files
over, correcting ownership and permissions (hopefully) as I went.
But now I can't get logged in.
Messages in /var/log/dovecot/dovecot-info.log, without saslauthd
running, are like this.

The passwd file exists and I'm using the correct password.
dovecot -n as an attachment.
More info this is a semi-good attempt at a mail server for virtual
domains. _It was working._
Any ideas as to why dovecot says the file doesn't exist?
TIA,
Rod
