So you're using pam_ldap and nss_ldap. See http://wiki.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/Passwd
So I'd suggest upgrading.
Thank you for the quick response. It doesn't look like the problem I'm having though? I don't have problems with people getting other peoples email. I have problems with the Assertion errors that I mentioned.
No, but it could very well be caused by the same problem.
Just to close off this thread....This seems to have fixed the problem.
I upgraded to a newer version and that alone made a huge difference.
However, I didn't make the configuration changes I was supposed to at
that time. The following day, I checked the server logs and saw the
problem happen a couple times within a second and that was it.
Significantly less, but it prompted me to read the dovecot website again
and make the recommended configuration changes.
Running for a couple days now, no problems and positive reports from the clients. Thank you for the resolution and best wishes to everyone.
