2.0.19: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf

31 May 2013


      Dear Community,
I've got a weird problem regarding lmtp setup with dovecot 2.0.19 on ubuntu
12.04.2 LTS. My reference of the configuration is at
https://library.linode.com/email/postfix/postfix2.9.6-dovecot2.0.19-mysql ,
and my configuration is identical to it with the exception of opening the
110 pop3 port, and enabling plain text auth. Everything from imap, smtp,
pop3 (including auth) works except for lmtp.
I saw thousands of the following messages in /var/log/mail.log:
May 31 09:05:24 postfix/lmtp[3664]: 2FD80321F4: to=<myaddress@me.com>,
relay=none, delay=0.41, delays=0.41/0/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred
(connect to me.com[private/dovecot-lmtp]: No such file or directory)
And it happens when an incoming email is received.
Here's the output of configuration:
root@prosp:/etc/dovecot/conf.d# dovecot -n

deliver_log_format = msgid=%m: %$
mail_plugins = sieve
postmaster_address = postmaster
quota_full_tempfail = yes
rejection_reason = Your message to <%t> was automatically rejected:%n%r
}
This problem has been discussed here:
http://serverfault.com/questions/512219/dovecot-lmtp-does-not-exist . I've
then tried switching from unix socket to inet listener, and still got the
same result. I cannot get lmtp service to start.
I'm also seeing no errors in the log when dovecot is restarted (see the
above link for the log).
I'm wondering how do I go about troubleshooting this problem? What might be
the possible cause? Is it possible for dovecot to output verbose logs
regarding service startups?
Thank you.
