I don't understand why it would cache negative lookups if I set negative_ttl to 0, even if the setting isn't suppose to work that
way currently, it should.Hmm. Maybe.
This is still a rather big support issue for us. We have customers who are essentially blocked from their accounts because of the above auth cache "functionality". Is this something you are willing to look at?

SIGHUP to dovecot-auth is enough.
