email - How to give permissions in dovecot to receive mails? - Ask Ubuntu


i'm installed iredmail on new server. i'm able send emails i'm not able receive mails. i've checked logs , tried change permissions , group permissions nothing works.

this error comes in mail.log.

error reading configuration: stat(/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf) failed: permission denied (euid=2000(vmail) egid=2000(vmail) missing +x perm: /etc/dovecot, we're not in group 118(dovecot), dir owned 8:118 mode=0750) lda: fatal: internal error occurred. refer server log more information. ) 

i'm not able solve this. how can give permissions dovecot user?

the error message explicitly tells /etc/dovecot directory needs +x permission, should have been first thing tried.

chmod +x /etc/dovecot
