Hi, based on commands below, anyone know why i would get these errors ?
Jun 29 12:05:02 mail2 dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<cec-support-comment>,
method=PLAIN, rip=137.99.24.120, lip=137.99.90.68, mpid=6752, TLS
Jun 29 12:05:02 mail2 dovecot: imap(cec-support-comment): Error: user
cec-support-comment: Initialization failed: Initializing mail storage from
mail_location setting failed: mkdir(/home/cec_support_comment/mail) failed:
Permission denied (euid=593(cec-support-comment) egid=594(cec-support-comment)
missing +w perm: /home, euid is not dir owner)
Back story, user wanted names to have dashes and not underscores, I guess I may
need to delete user accounts and just create them again...
usermod cec_support -l cec-support
usermod cec_support_comment -l cec-support-comment
from man page
-l, --login NEW_LOGIN
The name of the user will be changed from LOGIN to NEW_LOGIN.
Nothing else is changed. In particular, the user´s home directory or mail spool
should probably be renamed manually to reflect the new login name.
mv cec_support cec-support
mv cec_support_comment cec-support-comment
groupmod -n cec-support cec_support
groupmod -n cec-support-comment cec_support_comment
-n, --new-name NEW_GROUP
The name of the group will be changed from GROUP to NEW_GROUP name.
