Which kernel version do you use? As I already mentioned in a previous comment, 4.14.0 and 4.14.1 have a known bug, so please use 4.14.2 (from Kernel:HEAD until it reaches Tumbleweed). I wouldn't be surprised if you have the broken kernel, and this is a side effect of that bug. (Nevertheless, the dovecot profile might need some signal rules added - but for sure not for rtmin+772495128 ;-) > type=AVC msg=audit(1511799100.748:51): apparmor="DENIED" operation="capable" > profile="/usr/sbin/dovecot" pid=1713 comm="dovecot" capability=2 > capname="dac_read_search" That means the dovecot profile (/etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.dovecot) needs (probably because /var/spool/postfix/private/ is postfix:root 700) capability dac_read_search,
