[Dovecot] major pop3+ldap problem with alpha3 and alpha4

[Udo Rader]

hi,

For some of our customers we provide a pop3 access, and after an upgrade
to alpha3, it is not working anymore.

All of our data is ldap based and everything is working as before for
our IMAP customers, but our POP3 users fail.

Obviously the pop3 login process does not read the data correctly that
comes from ldap.

after enabling mail_debug, I saw the following error in our log:

--------CUT--------
dovecot: Nov 02 18:01:32 Info: pop3(some.one.at.work): mbox:
data=/virtual/at.work/home/some.one/mail/:INBOX=/var/mail/some.one.at.work
--------CUT--------

The INBOX should be /virtual/at.work/var/mail/some.one.at.work, yet the
POP3 process obviously uses the default_mail_env settings.

the relevant line in our dovecot-ldap configuration looks like this:
-------CUT--------
user_attrs = uid,homeDirectory,MailMessageStore,,uidNumber,gidNumber
-------CUT--------

As I said, the IMAP process uses the ldap data correctly.

any ideas?

Udo
