Hi Everyone,
I've managed to get most of postfix and dovecot running using the
howto located on dovecot.org.
So, I went to go test sending a email locally and i am getting this
error which i cannot seem to resolve. Any help would be welcomed.

I usually find this type of message "Operation not permitted" to be a
permissions issue. Check that the user "deliver" running as has the
needed permissions to work in your directories "/var/vmail".
