Hello,
I'm testing passdb auth binds with dovecot 2.0.16, but for some reason dovedm fails to work with the configuration showed below. The network trace shows the successful bind for the administrative user (uid=mailapp), but nothing for the mail user (uid=user001).
what am i missing here?
# doveadm mailbox list -u user001 doveadm(user001): Error: user user001: Auth PASS lookup failed doveadm(user001): Fatal: passdb lookup failed
Are you running this on a Dovecot proxy? It looks like doveadm wants to do a passdb lookup to find out which server should handle this user. Passdb lookups don't work with LDAP binding. But if everything else works then I think you simply shouldn't have enabled doveadm proxying. So, set doveadm_proxy_port back to 0?
