[Dovecot] dovecot 2.2.1: lmtp running in base_dir

[Andy R]

Evening all,

I'm running into an issue with lmtp trying to store user mail in 
'base_dir' ( same as this ( 
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2011-January/056736.html )) however 
I'm just using PAM for auth. I've tried with chroot, without chroot and 
'chroot'ing lmtp directly in ' service lmtp {  } ' which just lead to 
lots more errors.

I've not included anything of the current config so far, as I don't know 
what is needed here yet.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I can't spot it for the life 
of me. Can anyone offer any new ideas?


Many thanks

Andy R.
