I never seem to get any messages about dovecot in /var/log/messages . I opened a log-file /var/log/dovecot to get dovecot debug messages, but this doesn't get much either. Just a message when dovecot starts of finishes. I tried closing the firewall with "shorewall clear" but this didn't have any effect. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
