I'll give this a whirl tomorrow during off-mail time. I'm thinking there was a reason I did vmail:users, but it's not coming to me at the moment. I'm also puzzled by why lda is using dovecot:dovecot rather than vmail:users. Does it drop back to dovecot:dovecot and retry if the requested uid:gid fails to work? I can't imagine where postfix would get uid:gid of dovecot:dovecot to call with, so I don't think it's a postfix problem. Thanks for your help! Chris
