I find this in my /etc/dovecot.conf, immediately after a similar
commented out example:
# This was set up by PH for testing
auth default_with_listener {
mechanisms = plain
passdb pam {
args = "*"
}
userdb passwd {
}
socket listen {
master {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
# WARNING: Giving untrusted users access to master socket may be a
# security risk, don't give too wide permissions to it!
#mode = 0600
# Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root)
#user =
#group =
}
client {
path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
mode = 0666
}
}
}
I suggest you search your conf for default_with_listener.
