Now since some update of dovecot it will not be able to authenticate your logins after a restart of the LDAP service is restarted without a reboot of the dovecot server.

Hello,

This sounds more like a configuration glitch. Could you show the ldap related dovecot configuration?

Logs with failure message will also be helpful.

Not much in the logs, just:

............... imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 2 attempts in 8
secs): ....................

Here the very basic config:
