I'm trying to enable postfix auth. I'm editing the this section from /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf

# Postfix smtp-auth
unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
    mode = 0666
    user = postfix
    group = postfix
}

But after I restart dovecot I get this error:

Starting Dovecot Imap: doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf line 88: Unknown setting: unix_listener
                                                       [FAILED]

    Make sure to put this `unix_listener` block in a `service auth { ... }` block. –  Sep 17 '14 at 03:26

You should put this unix_listener block inside a service auth block, like so :

service auth {
    unix_listener /some/path { ... }
}
