Description

I encountered a problem while migrating the physical in which I could not connect to the server using my mail client, Thunderbird. As the server is virtual and configured with a bare minimal OS there was no advanced logging facilities. So I installed rsyslog:

sudo apt-get install rsyslog

I found that Dovecot was not loading the mysql driver. So I looked to see if the package was installed:

dpkg -l dovecot-mysql

To find that the module was not installed, so I simply installed the package:
sudo apt-get install dovecot-mysql

This allowed normal connections to resume.
