As you left sendmail and not mention about reconfiguring it I think that
you should do it according to Dovecot wiki:
http://wiki.dovecot.org/LDA/Sendmail
Maciej
I read that, and according to the instructions, it assumes sendmail is
set up for virtual hosting and that local system mail is not handled by
deliver. The way I have it configured now, and the way I want it, I have
no virtual hosting (what would be the point of that with one user
account?), and all mail, including local system mail, is passed through
deliver. This way I only need one mail reader, regardless of where the
mail comes from and which mailbox it's sent to. And since I also have
root's mail forwarded to my regular user account (via
/etc/mail/aliases), I get all mail, whether local system mail or from
the outside world, "transparently" delivered to ~/Maildir, and I can
read it from whichever IMAP capable client I choose.
