Problem was not dovecot login, but roundcube itself. I misunderstood what:

$config['auto_create_user'] =

meant, that this was the roundcube user, not the dovecot/postfix user (which was already created). Changed it from false to true and it works now.

Even though the install test succeeds...

From the roundcubeinstall webpage, I run the Test IMAP Config and I can log in.

I try the same userid and password (full ID@doman as above), and it fails. maillog is unhelpful:

1st is from install page and 2nd from webmail login page.

And why method=PLAIN? (I think I asked this question over a year ago when I was last testing Roundcube...)
