Well, I've been all day yesterday solving this .. and of course a simple
[r...@magenta ~]# chmod a+rx /opt/mailboxes/
allows me to see the mails from scanner user.
The only problem now is when sending mails to that user I still get a
warning: connect #3 to subsystem private/dovecot: Connection refused
I don't think I can set postfix to deliver directly to maildir instead
of passing through dovecot ?
I don't know if the home_mailbox directive allows us to use vars like %u
? or can you see anything wrong in my confs !?

Dear All,
I saw some topics discussed in forums about this, but none with my
problems :(
Currently we have a mailserver postfix with courier-imap-4.1.1, and
courier-pop3 and courier-authlib.
Our Maildir's are written in the users home directory (ex: ~/Maildir)
I'm now migrating the mailserver to other cluster and installing with
dovecot. We're also moving the Maildir's to other directory (ex:
/opt/mailboxes/%u)
I've ran your perl script courier-dovecot-migrate-1.0.pl which worked
just great (as far as I can tell from the OK messages) .. but when
configuring my mail client for this account I get the following:
Mar 16 09:49:27 magenta dovecot: auth(default): master out:
USER 69 scanner system_user=scanner uid=734 gid=100
home=/home/scanner
Mar 16 09:49:27 magenta dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<scanner>,

drwx------ 9 scanner users 4096 Mar 15 11:56 scanner
The second problem is between postfix / dovecot.. When I send an email
to this user I get the following:
Mar 16 09:52:11 magenta postfix/local[19065]: warning: connect #1 to
subsystem private/dovecot: Connection refused
Mar 16 09:52:12 magenta postfix/local[19064]: warning: connect #5 to
subsystem private/dovecot: Connection refused
I've the following on my /etc/postfix/main.cf
## deliver with dovecot
dovecot_destination_recipient_limit = 1
mailbox_transport = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_client_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated
I hope you can give me a hand on this :) If you need further
information, please let me know (perhaps I forgot something)
Best Regards
Daniel
