Re: Problem switching from LDA to LMTP (with Postfix)

You are searching for the complete username (%u = user@domain) but it sounds like you only want the localpart (%n). See:

Thank you Alex,

You are right. After switching to LMTP, Dovecot receives from Postfix a fully qualified username, whereas with LDA it was receiving a 'naked' username.

Thus, although I had %u (instead of %n, see below) in my dovecot ldap component, it was working right with LDA.

So, I had to change my dovecot ldap component so that it uses only the username, i.e.:

 hosts = localhost
 tls = no
 base = ou=people, dc=noa, dc=gr
 scope = onelevel
 ldap_version = 3
 dn = uid=auth,ou=Sys,dc=noa,dc=gr
 dnpass = secret
 auth_bind = yes
 user_filter = (uid=%n)
 pass_filter = (uid=%n)
 pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password
 auth_bind_userdn = uid=%n,ou=people,dc=noa,dc=gr
 user_attrs = roomNumber=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,uid=home=/home/vmail/%n
 iterate_filter = (objectClass=*)
