Re: [Dovecot] Variable similar to %u but providing the username changed by a database lookup?

[...] The doc http://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/SQL#User_database_lookups spells:

SELECT userid AS username

maybe, you override the wrong field?

Hello Steffen,

You helped me to look twice at those matters. So, it seems that variable %u (or, for what matters, even %n) indeed expands to the value as changed thru a database lookup.

In fact, I now understand that I was struggling with a somewhat unexpected behavior of the prefetch database, and that I failed to correctly interpret the behaviors I was encountering. Will be a question for a next post. ;-)

Thanks again, Axel
