I have spent all day installing postfix, dovecot, postfixadmin, roundcube webmail and webmin.
I thought that I had configured postfix/dovecot correctly, however upon logging into roundcube and trying to send a test mail, it just hangs there with the loading symbol on the browser.
With that, I am left thinking that something is wrongly configured being it IMAP, SMTP, or POP.
I am trying to setup dovecot from this tutorial: http://library.linode.com/email/post...tu-10.04-lucid
When I use Webmin to start dovecot I keep getting this error.
Below is my configuration
# 2.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.0.0-17-server x86_64 Ubuntu 11.10
auth_mechanisms = plain login
mail_location = maildir:/nfs/users/%u/Maildir
passdb {
args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users
driver = passwd-file
}
protocols = " imap pop3"
service auth {
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
group = postfix
mode
Below is my configuration
# 2.0.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.0.0-17-server x86_64 Ubuntu 11.10
auth_mechanisms = plain login
mail_location = maildir:/nfs/users/%u/Maildir

service auth {

I've set up Roundcube using dovecot, postfix{admin,}, and pigeonhole, enabled the managesieve plugin for roundcube, but Filters won't seem to work. I have no idea why.The following is my dovecot.conf.
Followed this tutorial on rackspace.com exactly, but I am not able to start Dovecot.
# service dovecot restart
Stopping Dovecot Imap: [FAILED]
Starting Dovecot Imap: Fatal: service(auth) User doesn't exist: postfix
(See service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { user } }
setting) [FAILED]
well, I got dovecot working in a basic configuration... however, the wikis could only get me so far with the SSL connection. I have certs that I bought from RapidSSL and converted to a .pem so that dovecot could use them. However, here's the error that my logs picked up when trying to connect. I know there was a pass phrase on the cert when it was made, but how can I still use them...
