[Dovecot] LDAP timeout

Hi,

we recently hit an issue where one (of the three configured) LDAP
servers dropped an index on an attribute due to a misconfiguration,
which caused all/most queries for passdb to take a very long time
(several 10s of seconds). 

The other servers would have been fine, but it seems like Dovecot does
either not set a timelimit on the query or uses a very high one. I could
not find any place to control that either.

Is there any knob to tune the LDAP timeout?

Bernhard
