Should I try increasing LMTP_PROXY_DATA_INPUT_TIMEOUT_MSECS, or do you have any other ideas for what might be causing it ?
The backend server didn't reply within LMTP_PROXY_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_MSECS (30 secs).
It's actually 60 sec in v2.0

- LMTP_PROXY_DATA_INPUT_TIMEOUT_MSECS is not LMTP_PROXY_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_MSECS
It still shouldn't have crashed of course, and that crash is already fixed in v2.1 (in the LMTP simplification change).
Do you think we should rather run v2.1-rc* on our dovecot directors (for IMAP, POP3 and LMTP), even if we keep the backend servers on v2.0 ?
Yes, I've done a lot of improvements to proxying and error handling/logging in v2.1. Also I'm planning on finishing my email backlog soon and making the last v2.1-rc before renaming it to v2.1.0.
