: Permission denied - that is reason why mailbox is unaccessible. Of
course maildir files cant be created if permission is denied. Check
premissions of /home/aandt.co.uk/sales/Maildir/

Uldis


As far as I can see the Permission are correct, all the other username 
domain combinations are working correctly . However to enable my client 
to get all his emails, I have  (in  Exim) sent the sales emails to 
another user. I will reproduce  the same conditions on a couple of 
domains I use for testing and report back


Thanks all for help

[Dovecot] User with multiple domains

2009-06-02 Thread Peter Sparkes

Hi,

I am running Dovecot on Linux Debian with Exim4 with a number multiple 
domains.


I have a new user who want to use a single username with more than one 
domain eg:


t...@domainone.com
t...@domaintwo.com
t...@domainthree.com

Exim is working fine with mail correctly with mail going to

/home/domainone.com/test/Maildir/new/
/home/domaintwo.com/test/Maildir/new/
/home/domainthree.com/test/Maildir/new/

The  Dovecot password files are in

/home/domainone.com/etc/passwd.dovecot
/home/domaintwo.com/etc/passwd.dovecot
/home/domainthree.com/etc/passwd.dovecot

When trying to retrieve email using Dovecot for t...@domaintwo.com the 
password is not recognised although it is for t...@domainone.com.


Help Please

Peter
