Setting auth_debug_passwords=yes and looking at the logs would tell exactly why it's failing. http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging > r...@mail:/etc/dovecot# dovecot -n > # 1.1.11: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf > Error: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf line 1076: > Unknown section type (section changed in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf at > line 1038) In Ubuntu Dovecot is started with -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf, so the dovecot.conf isn't used at all. In your dovecot -n output you'd need to give the same -c parameter. Why they decided to do it like this, I've no idea. Anyway..
