[Dovecot] Failed authentication to a mysql database (bug or PEBKAC?)

Hi, 
	dovecot has a little crazy behaviour connecting to a mysql db: if you
specify "127.0.0.1" as host instead of "localhost" it seems to work,
also with a password. BUT, if you assign host=localhost without a
password, it works too (as Ger Visschers says)....

One more question: how I can specify more different mysql-db conteining
different users?
I try in the following way: 
passdb sql {
        args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql_django.conf
        args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql_debord.conf
        }
and also:
passdb sql {
        args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql_debord.conf
        }
passdb sql {
        args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql_django.conf
        }
but it always seems to remember only the last args value and it tries to
connect only one db...

bye
