Olivier,

Thanks for the reply.

Seems you had issue with your passwd file.

I'm faily sure the format of the file is not the issue. To clarify, with:

-rw-r----- 1 root opensmtpd  314 Aug 15 16:58 passwd

the server is working perfectly. With

-rw-r----- 1 root mail_auth  314 Aug 15 16:58 passwd

the smtpd daemon fails to start with the previously described error. The only difference is the group owner of the file. The opensmtpd user is a member of both groups.

As an update to this - it works if I set "mail_auth" as the <primary> group of the opensmtpd user (rather than a secondary group). Not sure if this is a feature or a bug but I'll file something over on the github project page. In any case I consider this an acceptable fix to allow opensmtpd and dovecot to share the file.

Jeremy
