If there is something in the conf file that needs to change (that worked in 5.1 and does not in 5.2) let us know and we can add it to the release notes and/or wiki.

It was in the listening section as follows:

# A space separated list of IP or host addresses where to listen in for
# connections. "*" listens in all IPv4 interfaces. "[::]" listens in all IPv6
# interfaces, but may also listen in all IPv4 interfaces depending on the
# operating system. Use "*, [::]" for listening both IPv4 and IPv6.
#
# If you want to specify ports for each service, you will need to configure
# these settings inside the protocol imap/pop3 { ... } section, so you can
# specify different ports for IMAP/POP3. For example:
#   protocol imap {
#     listen = *:10143
#     ssl_listen = *:10943
#     ..
#   }
#   protocol pop3 {
#     listen = *:10100
#     ..
#   }
listen = "*"
#listen = [::]

The listen bit defaults to [::]. I had to change it to "*" as above otherwise I couldn't connect to it. (connection refused)

As it says above, [::] only listens on IPv4 'depending on the operating system'. So something has changed from 5.1 to 5.2 which means that is no longer the case.

That's strange Dunc.

The new config file was written to /etc/dovecot/conf.rpmnew (as expected) for me, so your modified original doesn't get overwritten. I can see no difference between the 5.1 and 5.2 config files wrt the 'listen' directive. Mine was, and still is, set to the default [::] and still works fine. Further, I have IPv6 disabled on the server. I have tested on both i386 and x86_64 platforms and each are working fine both with and without ssl/tls.

Did you restart the dovecot service after it was updated? (I'm not sure if yum update does this automatically or not when updating a daemon service that is running).

Regards,

Ned
