    Hi,

    I did the following command to take a look at the mail.* log files.

    egrep -r '(error|fatal|warning|panic):' /var/log/mail.*

    This gave me:
    There is more in the mail log files i uploaded the log files:

    http://www.webcustoms.org/logs/mail.err
    http://www.webcustoms.org/logs/mail.info
    http://www.webcustoms.org/logs/mail.log
    http://www.webcustoms.org/logs/mail.warn

    Are there any other log files to add?

    Kindly regards,

    edit:

    There is nothing listening on port 10025 ..

    also, does /etc/postfix/main.cf contain "smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot" ?

    Which tutorial (URL) did you use to set up the system?

    I have used the ISPConfig 3 Manual to install ISPConfig 3 on the server.
    Its running on OpenVZ.

    But before the provider got DDOS'ed everything was working correctly.

    Can you check the output of

    Code:
    cat /proc/user_beancounters
    ? Maybe you need to raise your VM's limit and/or restart the VM.

    Can you post the client section from your dovecot.conf?

    Have you tried creating /var/spool/postfix/private/auth manually (with the permissions/ownerships specified in dovecot.conf)?
