I am having permission / ownership issues with Postfix / Dovecot. Here is the error message I'm getting Jan 10 17:39:01 backend postfix/local[1101]: EEC06115E845F: to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.43, delays=0.42/0/0/0, dsn=5.2.0, status=bounced (maildir delivery failed: create maildir file /home/sales/Maildir/tmp/1294702741.P1101.mydomain.com: Permission denied) What can I post to give you more information about the source of my problem? TIA
What's the output of Code: ls -la /home/sales/ ? How di you set up the mail system? Did you use a tutorial from here? If so, what's the tutorial's URL?

I saw the permissions errors and gave it those permissions. The Maildir directory that's in there now was created successfully by vmail, and I may have done a chmod +x on the directory after looking through the logs. As far as which tutorial I used, it was a combination of many unfortunately. I can give you some more information about the system if you need it. Server is running CentOS 5.5 [[email protected] ~]# uname -a Linux backend.mydomain.com 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Nov 9 12:54:20 EST 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Falko: It's looking like I am going to have to do a full reinstall of ISPConfig so that we can configure it for multiple servers. As a result, I will probably just end up reinstalling Postfix (w/ MySQL support) and dovecot with it. I have purchased your ISPConfig manual and will be going through that. I will be back with additional questions if need be. Thanks
