Error after installing mail server.

Hi all,

I'm new here. I already install ubuntu 9.10 and mail server
(Dovecot + Postfix + SASL + Squirrel Mail). But after login on squirrelmail. an error message appeared "Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost. 111 : Connection refused". Any solutions?

Thanks

Presumably you've checked "How To" pages like this one:
Debian Mail Server Setup with Postfix + Dovecot + SASL + Squirrel Mail -- Debian Admin
to confirm your installation and configuration?

According to this post it was because dovecot was not running:
