You have to specify the socket path even when you use host/port #15

If you want to use dovecot via HTTP, you radicale-dovecot-auth needs only the host and the port in the config. But in practice, you need to set

[auth]
auth_socket =
auth_host = myhost
auth_port = 8888

And auth_socket must be present, but completely empty, unintuitively. Otherwise, the plugin crashes when trying to access auth_socket, and will never get around to accessing host and port.

I see that this will be fixed once #14 is merged, but here's a documented solution until then ;)
