[Dovecot] Errors in dovecot 1 beta7

[Oliver Schulze L.]

Hi Timo,
about bug #:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=154315

That patch adds a warning message, but it does not handle the error.
The problem I have seen is that once a "BROKEN NSS IMPLEMENTATION"
is detected, dovecot can not handle any login anymore.
So, the only solution is to manually restart dovecot.

It would be nice to have dovecot handle the error and return an error or 
something,
so that other users still can login. The affected user should see an 
error like: "try again
later" or :bad password".

I think this will help for old RedHat installations or to have a 
solution while
a patch for nss_ldap is found.

Many Thanks
Oliver
