Is the script executable?  I'm out of ideas.

Yes, you can set it up exactly the same for IMAP.

Much closer!  It seems to run the script, but now I get:
Error: net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/imap-postpop) failed:
Connection refused

I thought it might be because popuser has no logon capability
(/sbin/nologin), but I changed that and connection is still refused.

Can it be my script?  It is just:
#!/bin/bash
echo "$USER $IP `host $IP`" > /var/lib/postpop/db/$IP
exec "$@"

The IP-named file is not being created.  popuser owns the folder.

Also, when I get this working, can I set up a pop3 equivalent?

I am running Dovecot 2.0.13 on Fedora 15.  I have migrated from a
bincimap installation using checklocalpwd.  All email is in folders
owned by a unprivileged user, popuser.  The email users are entirely
virtual and have no relationship to actual linux users.

I am trying to implement a Post-login script to register the IP address
that the authentication came from.  Dovecot seems to be trying to
execute the script as the email non-user, which does not work.  I have
specified that the script should be run as popuser, but it still runs as
[email protected] for instance.  Everything up top that point seems to
be happening happily under popuser.


I'd remove the unix_listener directive:
service imap-postpop {
   executable = script-login /usr/local/bin/set_postpop
   user = popuser
}

The equivalent is working for me.
