I also managed to fix my dovecot config on my server this morning, and Watchtower is now able to send email notifications again.

#selfhosting #dovecot #linux #watchtower #config #homeserver #server

@Tywele was it broke due to the version upgrade?
@UkiahSmith yes. I was still using 10-auth.conf and 10-master.conf and now I have everything in dovecot.conf. And also managed to configure it to use port 587 instead of port 25.

@Tywele did the config changes go smoothly?

I've been avoiding upgrading due to the breaking changes.

@UkiahSmith @Tywele I wouldn’t call it smooth since I only noticed the changes after it broke and had to fix it afterwards. But you can take a look at my Ansible playbook to see how I configured it now.

@Tywele @UkiahSmith @Tywele it’s in the roles/essentials/mail task
@UkiahSmith @Tywele ahah, me too! maybe after VPS's (HW) upgrade, which is supposed to happen in 20 days, I'll migrate to #mailcow.

@Tywele

Hurray!

Emai is so much more fraught than its users think.
