I have also set
unix_listener auth-client {
mode = 0660
user = mail
}
in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-master.conf
I don't understand why dovecot_login authenticator fails though I have given the right username and password to my mail client.
Please help me debug the issue. can i make the error: Incorrect authentication data, more verbose?
