Fix missing /usr/sbin when User unable to change password

User unable to login into the mail server (webmail as well) if password has been changed after a mailbox has been created.
After some checking, discovered that /usr/sbin/dovecotpw was missing.

Here is a fix that worked for me:

cd /usr/sbin
touch dovecotpw
chmod 755 dovecotpw
chown root:root dovecotpw


Put the following contents into dovecotpwd

#!/bin/sh

/usr/bin/doveadm pw $*

Тоже самое и у меня. После смены пароля почтового ящика. В почтовый аккаунт не зайти.

Thank you for the hot fix. It was a know bug and I thought that I fixed it already, but it looks like I forgot about password change function.

rpm with updates is on the way.
