  • 1. What are you using to set passwords? What have you configured in auth-sql.conf ? – NickW Jan 21 '14 at 15:07
  • If you're using virtual mailboxes for your virtual users, what manner of virtual password storage are you going to use? Basically, where is your list of users and where is your list of passwords? – etherfish Jan 21 '14 at 15:08
  • disable_plaintext_auth = no mail_location = /var/spool/postfix/vhosts/ passdb { args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } userdb { args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/passwd driver = passwd-file } – DeepoOoOoz Jan 21 '14 at 15:10
  • I have virtual users in /var/spool/postfix/vhosts/virtual/domain/ – DeepoOoOoz Jan 21 '14 at 15:11
  • I have passwords in /etc/dovecot/passwd in the following format user:{PLAIN}password – DeepoOoOoz Jan 21 '14 at 15:12
  • So any errors in maillog or dovecot log when you start dovecot? – NickW Jan 21 '14 at 17:07
  • user not found from userdb passwd-file – DeepoOoOoz Jan 21 '14 at 19:13
  • This error appears in maillog when I try to login via telnet localhost 110 with a specific user – DeepoOoOoz Jan 21 '14 at 19:40
