[SOLVED] Dovecot Systemd Service Fails

Hello all, I can't find the reason for why my dovecot fails. My journalctl doesn't provide output for the PID I give it.

$ systemctl status dovecot.service

* dovecot.service - Dovecot IMAP/POP3 email server
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dovecot.service; enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2014-08-04 17:53:27 UTC; 1min 4s ago
  Process: 4580 ExecStart=/usr/bin/dovecot -F (code=exited, status=89)
 Main PID: 4580 (code=exited, status=89)

$ journalctl -b _PID=4580
-- Logs begin at Fri 2013-03-29 01:07:20 UTC, end at Mon 2014-08-04 02:50:51 UTC. --

Thank you for the help.

========================

EDIT:
ran the process described above: dovecot -F which gave me the dovecot error message. I had a misconfigured file (spelling mistake).

Thanks for the help!
