Hello
After latest update/upgrade I get this for me strange error on the
boot up screen :

dovecot error:t_readlink(var/run/dovecot//dovecot.conf) failed: readlink() failed: No such file or directory
Then : Starting dovecot

Dovecot seems to work as usual and I can't find anything in any logfiles.

Googled it, and found this : https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg73108.html

Anybody else experienced this ? Or know how to fix ?

Best Regards
Geir Svalland
