Hello,
I'm using Postfix with Dovecot 2.3.13, and trying to get LMTP proxy to work for authentication and delivery in the following scenario:
Incoming Mail -> Postfix (server A) -> LMTP to Dovecot (server A) -> LMTP to Dovecot (server B)
I'm using MySQL for authentication.
I've created a user on both server A and server B, test@domain.tld On server A, host parameter in password_query for test@domain.tld is set to server B's address, and proxy_maybe is enabled.
Delivery and authentication to Server A works fine. Authentication and IMAP proxy to server B works fine as well. I can connect to IMAP on server A with credentials for test@domain.tld and access the maildir on server B. This works surprisingly well, and is about half the battle for me..
What I can't figure out, is how can I get Postfix to deliver mail using LMTP via server A to server B.. Currently, mail still gets delivered to the user's maildir on server A.
Is this possible with Dovecot alone, or do I need to use another method to get messages to hop to server B via server A?
Any help would be appreciated..
cheers, Vlad
