I have the same.
meine-oma ~ # exim -bP log_file_path
log_file_path = /var/log/exim/exim_%s.log
meine-oma ~ #
It seems dovecot-lda runs as the user the mail gets delivered to. I can
dovecot-lda configure like that:
protocol lda {
# Space separated list of plugins to load (default is global
mail_plugins).
mail_plugins = sieve
log_path = /var/log/dovecot-lda-errors.log
info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot-lda.log
}
but then those logfiles need to be world writeable.
thanks and cheers
