Hi All,

I have my initial mailproxy setup with director through to my initial
backend mailstore.  POP3 and IMAP user authentication is working ok
on the proxy and the mailstore.  I just noticed when I do a "doveadm
auth lookup" on the proxy it appears to give correct results but when
I do it on the backend mailstore I get the error below.  Config on
the mailstore below.  Any ideas?
