Hi Simon:

I just followed the instruction in the Readme and everything worked
perfectly:
 auth default {
          mechanisms = plain login
          passdb pam {
          }
          userdb passwd {
          }
          socket listen {
            client {
              path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
              mode = 0660
              user = postfix
              group = postfix
            }
          }
        }

That said, I install DoveC and PF from source. I was never able to
configure a SPEC to work but you are FAR more skillful than I.
