I tried to upgrade from dovecot-1.2.15 to 2.0.6 but I can't get it working together with vpopmail-5.4.30-r2 (which works without any problems with dovecot's 1.2.15 version). dovecot always says that my users are unknown (user lookup failure).May be it is a configuration issue but from my point of view it's a bug. /var/log/messages: ...

Please provide the following info: * emerge --info =net-mail/dovecot-2.0.6 * emerge --info =net-mail/vpopmail-5.4.30-r2 * Can you get dovecot to work with vpopmail-5.4.30-r1? * Try switching to mysql authentication if possible. Something like the following should work: driver = mysql connect = host=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock user=vpopmail password=YOURPASS dbname=vpopmail default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT CONCAT(pw_name, '@', pw_domain) AS user, pw_clear_passwd AS password FROM vpopmail WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND pw_domain = '%d' user_query = SELECT pw_dir as home, 1008 AS uid, 1003 AS gid FROM vpopmail WHERE pw_name = '%n' AND pw_domain = '%d' Please note that upstream dropped vpopmail suppport for some dovecot-2.0.x releases and then added it back somewhat reluctantly. It might be dropped still. FYI.
- no difference with 5.4.30-r1 - mysql is not an option, it's a more or less mysql-free system net-mail/dovecot-2.0.6 was built with the following: USE="berkdb bzip2 ipv6 maildir pam sqlite ssl vpopmail zlib -caps -cydir -doc -kerberos -ldap -managesieve -mbox -mdbox -mysql -postgres -sdbox -sieve -suid" net-mail/vpopmail-5.4.30-r1 was built with the following: USE="-clearpasswd -ipalias -maildrop -mysql"
Please see if the following makes a difference: service auth { user = root }
big difference ! this is the solution - thanx. i replaced the default service auth section in 10-master.conf and everything works!
