Hello,
I'm using proxy_maybe and auth_default_realm. It seems that when a user
logs in without the domain name, relying on auth_default_realm, and the
"host" field points to the local server, I get the Proxying loops to
itself error. It does work as expected - log on to the local server
without proxying, if the user does include the domain name in the login.
(IP's and domain name masked below)
No domain:
Dec 29 11:49:07 imap01 dovecot: pop3-login: Error: Proxying loops to
itself: user=<jedi(a)----.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=00.00.52.18,
lip=00.00.241.140
Dec 29 11:49:27 imap01 dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1
attempts): user=<jedi(a)----.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=00.00.52.18,
lip=00.00.241.140
With domain:
Dec 29 11:52:13 imap01 dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<jedi(a)---.com>,
method=PLAIN, rip=00.00.52.18, lip=00.00.241.140, mpid=19969
Dec 29 11:52:18 imap01 dovecot: pop3(jedi(a)---.com): Disconnected: Logged
out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/1, size=731
Otherwise, e.g. when the proxy host is indeed another host,
auth_default_domain works fine, including or not including the domain
seems to make no difference, and everything works.
I'm using mysql, and I'm able to get around this problem including the
following in the password query:
IF(host='' or host='00.00.241.140', NULL, 'Y') as proxy_maybe

# dovecot -n
