http://wiki.ev-15.com/debian:mail_system so I used dpkg-statoverride to

the log file:

What am I missing?
Thanks,
PS: postfix does have access to /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp:
# su postfix
# ls -la /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Sep 3 00:28 /var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp
Hi from the guy that wrote that guide. :)
What are the permissions of the socket directory itself? On my setup
I've got the following:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ls -l /var/run/cyrus/socket
total 0
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Sep 1 12:56 lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Sep 1 12:56 notify
But the directory containing those files has these permissions:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo ls -ld /var/run/cyrus/socket
drwxr-x--- 2 cyrus lmtp 4096 Sep 1 12:56 /var/run/cyrus/socket
So although the lmtp socket itself has full permissions, postfix itself
has to be in the lmtp group or it can't even see inside the directory.
I would start by making sure postfix is a member of the lmtp group
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ id postfix
uid=101(postfix) gid=103(postfix) groups=103(postfix),45(sasl),1001(lmtp)
If it isn't then add it to that group
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo adduser postfix lmtp
If it already is, then check the permissions in the directory chain on
the way down into that socket directory and see if there's something in
there preventing postfix from seeing the socket.
A last thing to do if none of that works is to check the master.cf file
and see if the lmtp agent is running chrooted. It shouldn't be (n in the
fifth column).
Good luck.
