I'm sorry, I'm still having trouble...
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/postfix/deliver -d ${USER}. Command output:
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/postfix/deliver: Permission denied
#ls -la /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/postfix/
drwx-- 2 postfix postfix 512 Sep 24 16:07 ./
drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Sep 24 16:07 ../
-r-sr-sr-x 1 root postfix 676396 Sep 24 16:07 deliver*
The postfix documentation says the delivery agent is run under the
recipient's ID, so I can see why there's a permissions problem.
If I don't specify -d it doesn't access auth-master, so I can
run it without setuid or permissions issues, but will there other
problems?
Thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to set up dovecot 1.1.2 and postfix 2.5.4 on freebsd 7.0.
I'm getting permissions problems on auth-master and I'm not sure of the
correct settings to use.
In postfix's main.cf I have
mailbox_command=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $USER
In dovecot.conf I have:
socket listen {
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0660
user = dovecot
group = postfix
}
leave the master as it was and add a client for postfix:
client {
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot
mode = 0660
user = postfix
group = postfix
}
I'm confused. So deliver doesn't need access to the master socket?
Because it uses the master (not the client) in the default setup ...
Also how does this differ in terms of permissions from my current
setup? In both cases you would have group postfix rw perms on the
socket. And looking at the docs, I'm doubly confused! It says mailbox_command
runs with the userid of the recipient. So how is it supposed to access
this socket in any case? I take it I don't want to give 666 perms to
the socket ...
Sorry for my ignorance ...

[Dovecot] Using deliver with postfix
Hi, I'm trying to set up dovecot 1.1.2 and postfix 2.5.4 on freebsd 7.0.
I'm getting permissions problems on auth-master and I'm not sure of the
correct settings to use.
In postfix's main.cf I have
mailbox_command=/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d $USER
In dovecot.conf I have:
socket listen {
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
mode = 0660
user = dovecot
group = postfix
}
...
# ls -l /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
srw-rw 1 dovecot postfix 0 Sep 18 18:26 /var/run/dovecot/auth-master=
In maillog I'm getting:
deliver(sumbuddy): Can't connect to auth server at
/var/run/dovecot//auth-master: Permission denied
(I'm not sure where it's getting the // in the path either ...)
Also I'm confused about whether I need the postfix options:
maildrop_destination_recipient_limit=1
dovecot_destination_concurrency_limit=1
or even whether these are current options in my version of postfix (they don't
appear in main.cf.default)
Does deliver require such limits on concurrency or # of recipients?
Thanks!!

Re: [Dovecot] thunderbird and email duplication
For what it's worth I had a similar problem with deliver (thunderbird was not involved) for userids whose email aliases were mixed-case versions of the userid (Rich vs rich). It went away when I lowercased the alias. Dovecot 1.0.3. Rich
[Dovecot] deliver net_connect auth-master failed: Permission denied
Ok, I've ALMOST got this working ... I can run deliver as a user, but when I try using it as the default delivery agent from sendmail, I get deliver(userid): net_connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed: Permission denied Does deliver run as root, as the recipient's ID, sendmail's ID or sendmail's GID?
