hi,

I have set up dovecot in lenny. I have also set up postfix with virtual 
mailboxes. Postfix uses dovecot as the LDA and dovecot has no difficulty 
delivering mail to /home/vmail/user. The vmail user has uid:gid of 5000:5000. 
However when I try to telnet into pop3, I get this error:

May 18 09:34:43 greenchilly dovecot: chdir(/home/vmail/example.com/john) 
failed with uid 5000: Permission denied
May 18 09:34:43 greenchilly dovecot: child 24557 (pop3) returned error 89

the owner of /home/vmail/user is shown as vmail:vmail and the user with uid 
5000 has read/write permissions.

any clues?
