While that may be, the OP's previous spammer-behavior, coupled with very low lack of effort (see post #7.."can you please post your syntax here so that i can coy paste it?"), gives me very little incentive to assist. A mail-server of ANY type in the hands of a spammer isn't a good thing.

Dear bathory,

You are really genius, you caught me right. I am trying to build IMAP/POP3 server not smtp server with load balancing.

You said that haproxy support has been enabled from 2.2.19 version then why so many people had not caught this point and posted the error which i had posted. I am not blaming you but its looking strange that so many people had not got this error in prior of 2.2.19 version.

Let me try on my server by installing 2.2.19 or later version.

Regards,

Dear bathory,

You are really really genius man, As pwr your sugesstion i updated dovecot to latest 2.2.28 version by compiling and WOW it worked. The error gone and dovecot started.

Code:

[root@ip-172-31-21-162 ~]# dovecot -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
[root@ip-172-31-21-162 ~]# netstat -ntlp|grep dovecot

tcp6       0      0 :::995                  :::*                    LISTEN      15439/dovecot

I entered same config which i saw trying before.

Code:

[root@ip-172-31-21-162 ~]# cat /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
haproxy_trusted_networks = 127.0.0.1
dict {
}

!include conf.d/*.conf

!include_try local.conf

and with worked
.
