  • Dovecot + squirrelmail issue

    Posted on

    Hi group,

     

     

    I am experiencing a strange issue.

     

    With linux users that where on the server before I configured dovecot imap and squirrelmail I can log into webmail without any issues.

     

    But if I add a new user I get following errors, and I do not know where to look for the cause

     

    Nov 10 22:15:28 intel dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, mpid=15421, secured
    Nov 10 22:15:28 intel dovecot: imap(mindtree): Error: user mindtree: Initialization failed: mail_location not set and autodetection failed: Mail storage autodetection failed with home=/home/mindtree
    Nov 10 22:15:28 intel dovecot: imap(mindtree): Error: Invalid user settings. Refer to server log for more information.
     

    What server log is meaned?

     

    Or has anyone experienced this and found a fix.

     

     

    Kind regards,
