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?
Doh! I can't believe I've missed that, don't know how many times and
hours I've spent staring at the config files.... feeling a bit stupid
atm... ;)
Thanks Timo for spotting it, much appreciated! And Victor was right in
his answer, the
'private/dovecot' showing in netstat is indeed a pipe transport.
THANK YOU!!!
juhis
p.s. everythings working now wrt. my dovecot&postfix co-existence.
