Hi!
I've set up postfix(2.4.1) + dovecot(1.0-cvs) + dovecot-lda(1.0-cvs).
Dovecot's deliver is running as vmail:vmail (according to postfix's
master.cf).
Now the problem (when receiving mail):
deliver(leva): auth input: leva
deliver(leva): auth input: uid=8006
deliver(leva): auth input:
Because deliver is delivering as uid:gid and it has to change its uid.
