Ubuntu 18.04.02 Dovecot configuration problem












-1















My problem surfaced after the Ubuntu 16.04 upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04.02. Both Outlook client and Thunderbird client fail to connect to the IMAP server. I include some information about my configuration, hoping that someone can help.



==========================



$ dovecot -n

# 2.2.33.2 (d6601f4ec): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# Pigeonhole version 0.4.21 (92477967)
# OS: Linux 4.15.0-45-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS

mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
mail_privileged_group = mail
namespace inbox {
inbox = yes
location =
mailbox Drafts {
special_use = Drafts
}

mailbox Junk {
special_use = Junk
}

mailbox Sent {
special_use = Sent
}

mailbox "Sent Messages" {
special_use = Sent
}

mailbox Trash {
special_use = Trash
}

prefix =
}

passdb {
driver = pam
}

protocols = " imap pop3"

ssl_cert = </usr/local/ssl/mydomain/certs/linux.pem
ssl_client_ca_dir = /usr/local/ssl/mydomain/certs
ssl_key = # hidden, use -P to show it

userdb {
driver = passwd
}


Where "linux.pem" is a CA certificate (not self-signed) and working well with Apache 2.



==================================



The /var/log/auth.log doesn't show errors when I try to open the client, but the mail.log shows:



Feb 19 19:23:18 linux dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.2.33.2 (d6601f4ec) starting up
for imap, pop3 (core dumps disabled)
Feb 19 19:23:38 linux dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts

: Disconnected, session=

If I change the passwd {
driver = shadow
}
in authconf-system.con.ext, then the /var/log/auth.log shows the following error:



linux auth: pam_winbind(dovecot:auth): request wbcLogonUser fail

_SUCH_USER, Error message was: The specified account does not exist.



Any idea about the problem, please?



Thanks.
