Default config from the distro rpm (RL9), was:

passdb {
   driver = passwd-file
   master = yes
   args = /etc/dovecot/master-users
   pass = yes
}


I solved my problem with this config:

auth_master_user_separator = *
passdb {
   driver = passwd-file
   args = /etc/dovecot/master-users
   master = yes
   result_success = continue
}
passdb {
   driver = shadow
}
userdb {
   driver = passwd
}


that I get from the dovecot doc.

I'm not a dovecot configuration expert, so I don't understand exactly 
how the added sections interact in the config, but this solved my problem 
(hoping that I haven't created other problems that I don't see at the 
moment ... ;-) ).

Thanks, B.
