This seems to be the permissions of every folder and file below vmail1:
drwx------ 3 vmail vmail 4096 Aug 19 11:08 dccathome.com
Update:
I changed the permissions on the /var/vmail folder to this and it is working:
drwxr-xr-x 5 vmail vmail 4096 Aug 21 21:24 vmail

Now I need to get it to send and receive mail.

Please check permissions of all directories in this url:

/var/vmail/vmail1/dccathome.com/p/o/s/postmaster-2015.08.19.10.55.15/Maildir/

Which means, check
/var/vmail
/var/vmail/vmail1/
/var/vmail/vmail1/dccathome.com/
...

Re: iRedMail 0.9.2 installed but won't run in Debian Jessie

I made some changes and this is probably all wrong now.
Here is what I have for the directories now:
/var/vmail drwxr-xr-x vmail vmail
/var/vmail/vmail1/ drwxr-xr-x vmail vmail
/var/vmail/vmail1/dccathome.com/ drwxr-xr-s vmail vmail

Fix it with this:
1) login as root
2) cd /var
3) chmod 700 vmail
4) cd vmail
5) find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 700
6) find . -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 700

I have tried many settings for chmod and chown for the permission denied error and can't figure out what is causing this issue.
I don't know if that is why it won't receive email or not.
Any help is appeciated.
I have also looked at posts in this forum and they didn't seem to help unless I missed something.
Thanks
Dan

It also looks like now that it is sending mail out someone or something is trying to send mail out through google that isn't me.
I am getting several of these from differnent sources. Some are junk mail that looks like it is coming into my server and then trying to go back out.

Re: iRedMail 0.9.2 installed but won't run in Debian Jessie

Although this does not help you directly, I strongly recommend reinstalling Debian and starting with fresh iRedMail. I use the same configuration and it is flawless, out of the box.

Migrate mails and accounts afterwards as described in the wiki.

Did you restart Dovecot service and try again?

I have reinstalled debian 8. I left my /home partition intact. I hope that is ok.
I am now going to install iRedMail again

Re: iRedMail 0.9.2 installed but won't run in Debian Jessie

You can close this thread.
iRedMail is up and running.
Re install of OS and install of iRedmail worked.
Now it is time to learn all about this system. Make some tweaks.
