Hi all,
Just recently I reinstalled my server box, and having to set it up to receive email
again. I got sendmail working OK I think, and have dovecot setup for imap and pop. But
dovecot won't recognize my login info, so it's not recognizing my default logins,
which I just use a normal /etc/passwd for users and passwords, nothing special. I also
have ssl turned off since it's all local.
So what am I missing in my /etc/dovecot/conf.d dir to configure?
BTW, it is Fedora 21 that I am using, but it shouldn't matter as dovecot should be
same on 20 as well, I would think/hope.
Any help appreciated, thanks.
What do you get if you do....
telnet localhost 143 and then enter ....
a.000 login username password
I don't use dovecot.....but there should be logs and you should be able to do
journalctl -b 0 -u dovecot
