Hi,

I’ve got some « tweaking » here (using postgresql, obviously) so that
dovecot runs properly with SELinux enabled,

HTH,
Laurent.

module mydovecot 1.0;

require {
        type dovecot_auth_t;
        type postgresql_port_t;
        type dovecot_t;
        type var_t;
        type postfix_virtual_tmp_t;
        class tcp_socket name_connect;
        class file { rename read lock create write getattr link unlink
open append };
        class dir { read write create add_name remove_name };
}

#============= dovecot_auth_t ==============

#!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy
allow dovecot_auth_t postgresql_port_t:tcp_socket name_connect;

#============= dovecot_t ==============

#!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy
allow dovecot_t postfix_virtual_tmp_t:file { rename write unlink open
link };
allow dovecot_t var_t:dir create;

#!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy
allow dovecot_t var_t:dir { read write add_name remove_name };

#!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy
allow dovecot_t var_t:file { rename read lock create write getattr link
unlink open append };
