Correct me if I am wrong, but IIRC, these files are read after
privileges are dropped... so quick guess: is the file readable by the
service user itself?
If your service runs with "dovecot" as user, try the following:
sudo -u "dovecot" test -r "/etc/dovecot/master-users"; echo $?
where 1 == error and 0 == success.
On many installations and setups, the /etc/dovecot/ directory is owned
by root with 750 permission. So it might make sense to place the file
somewhere else, e.g. beside instead of inside the /etc/dovecot/ dir, so
you do not need to soften the permissions of the more important config
files:
# ls -lah /etc/ | grep dovecot
drwxr-x--- 4 root root 4.0K Jan 17 22:06 dovecot
-rw-r----- 1 dovecot dovecot 76 Jan 8 00:06 dovecot-masterusers-passwd
