I can see the private/auth socket created when dovecot starts, with postfix:postfix permissions. Also, netstat shows it:

bash:# netstat -ln | grep dovecot
unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 111791 private/ dovecot

I don't see it there. What is that private/dovecot anyway? Maybe netstat -lnp | grep dovecot would have shown the socket though.

Oh. That's actually it. Dovecot is listening on private/auth, but Postfix is connecting to private/dovecot. But what is listening on private/dovecot then? You've added some kind of a "dovecot" service to master.cf?
