I may end up with a "real" operating system yet. But I've only had the box for a fortnight, so it seems a little early for gutting it so completely ;) Yes, I've got dovecot and dovenull users. In fact (just to check), doveconf for 2.0.21 complains if dovenull's not there: doveconf: Error: default_login_user doesn't exist: dovenull doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /opt/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: default_login_user doesn't exist: dovenull Interestingly, it doesn't complain about the absence of dovecot.
