Auth binding is done ONLY for passdb lookup. After that it's unbound. Userdb lookups can't do auth binding, because they don't know the password. So userdb lookups bind to the "dn" setting to do the lookup. You need to set "dn" setting.

Thank you Timo,
dovecot-ldap.conf works fine - obviously thanks to auth_bind_userdn, so it authenticates as the binding user:
auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,ou=people,dc=example,dc=comI've tried to use a similar configuration (using auth_bind_userdn) in the new configuration in dovecot-usrdb-ldap.conf and in dovecot-passdb-ldap.conf but, as I described, it doesn't work.
So, the question is what may be wrong in dovecot-usrdb-ldap.conf (dovecot-passdb-ldap.conf is identical).
Thanks again, Nick

I am trying to enable per user quotas, but I get the following error:

It seems as if ldapsearch for username/password won't work with my new settings, but I can't find why. Your dovecot-ldap.conf has no dn or dnpass settings, so it's doing the userdb lookups anonymously. My guess is that won't work.
