So what about running deliver as vmail?
sudo su vmail -s /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]
What OS do you use? Do you use SELinux or anything like that?

Timo,
I really want to thank you for taking the time to look at this. I'm a newbie
with a little Linux experience, so I'm in charge of the mail server. It
makes it nice to deal with someone who really knows what they are doing.

When I run deliver with the -d parameter, it does deliver a message to the
intended user. I've tried just about everything I know how to do with the
Dovecot LDA in the master.cf config file for Postfix. Here is the line as it
stands now:
# Dovecot LDA
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe
flags=DRhu user=vmail:mail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d
${recipient}
That line worked just fine up until the update. After some looking, we were
running 1.0 rc 15 so this step up to 28 was quite a move. Fortunately, the
mail server is working with our virtual setup, but our vacation message
setup relied on the sieve portions of the Dovecot LDA. Thanks again for
taking a look at this.

And you gave deliver -d parameter when running from command line? If it works from there but not from Postfix, then the problem has something to do with how deliver is started. Did you try running as the same user as what Postfix runs it with? > Netstat shows the following when running. > > unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 255526 private/dovecot > unix 2 [ ACC ] STREAM LISTENING 1176428 > /var/run/dovecot/auth-master So it should be accepting connections. > It appears that the auth-master is running.

There really isn't any other way than to run deliver. auth_debug=yes will also log something whenever deliver is run and dovecot-auth sees something. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Restart Dovecot. Does it get recreated? When I delete the file and restart Dovecot it is recreated. Does this then happen every time when running deliver? Does netstat show that dovecot-auth is listening in that path? Connection refused means either that no-one is listening on the other side, or that its listen queue got full.

Timo,
Thanks for your time.

Delete this file. Restart Dovecot. Does it get recreated?
When I delete the file and restart Dovecot it is recreated.

dovecot -n shows what Dovecot really uses. It might show something
different than what you thought you had.
Here is the output from dovecot -n:

Some other information that I've learned might be helpful in helping
to troubleshoot this problem:
1. I'm using Postfix and delivering mail to virtual users.
2. The problem presents itself when using the Dovecot LDA. If I go
back to my old virtual settings (not using the Dovecot LDA) then mail
is delivered again.
3. The Dovecot LDA is added with this line in my master.cf for Postfix:
# Dovecot LDA
dovecot unix - n n - - pipe
flags=DRhu user=vmail:mail argv=/usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver -d ${recipient}
