ARGH!!!

The disk broke right 2 days before a deadline, so sunday and monday my
brain wasn't really lucid. When I restored the mailboxes, I had completely
forgotten about Selinux. So I saw I couldn't read them, sent the help
request to the dovecot list and then had to forget the whole issue to
finish restoring everything else and the work I was supposed to finish on
monday.

That's the only excuse I have for not thinking myself to this. I checked
the maillog, not the selinux log.

Yes, it was Selinux. With Selinux disabled that problem disappears. Now I
only have problems like this:

rename(/home/z/email/marco/.2009.12/dovecot.index.tmp,
/home/z/email/marco/.2009.12/dovecot.index) failed: Operation not
permitted

so I still have to debug this, but now it is more likely a dovecot-only
problem

THANKS!
Marco
