Re: Dovecot won't start just after fresh installation

As replied in email, you must enable ONLY CentOS official yum repositories while installing iRedMail. Please DISABLE all third-party yum repositories before installing iRedMail.

P.S. To all users, please follow our iRedMail installation guide STRICTLY.
