Anyone got a simple configuration file ( dovecot.conf )
that has simple auth login? like clear text?
Here it is. I use it on localhost to avoid bloating my home dir with mails.

$ grep -v \# /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf|cat -s
ssl_disable = yes
mail_location = maildir:/mnt1/shridhar/dovecot/%u
protocol imap {

protocol pop3 {

protocol lda {
  postmaster_address = postmaster@example.com
}
auth default {
  mechanisms = plain
  passdb pam {
  }
userdb passwd {
  }
user = root
}

$ dovecot -n
