AFAIK smtpd is running in a chroot. For this, your config seems to be correct. Have you already tried to set a chmod 777 on the socket? Another point is to check whether dovecot could even open the location -> check the permissions of the topfolders (/var/, /var/spool, ...). Another try would be to check whether it work without a chroot? I dunno whether this helps that much... but often the mistakes are small. Regards raf
