Both have two (identical) userdb’s in the same order:
userdb {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext
driver = sql
}
userdb {
driver = passwd
}
I have a mix of local and virtual users. Is this likely to be the cause?

Hi,
you have different userdb setup for protocols imap, doveadm and lmtp?
try to check differences in 'doveconf -f protocol=doveadm -n' and 'doveconf -f protocol=doveadm -n'

OK...I have made some progress with this. Looking through the SOLR logs, the query that IMAP is sending has “user:FULL-EMAIL-ADDRESS” whereas the doveadm search has “user:USERNAME”. The indexing was done using just the username.
Is there a way to change the IMAP search command username to match the username used to login?
This is further complicated by the fts automatic update setting: it seems to use the domain-less username when updating SOLR.
Something to ensure a consistent username for indexing would be great.

Using dovecot 2.3.7.2 with solr 8.11.2 when I do:
doveadm search -u user mailbox INBOX subject "something"
I get multiple mail ID's.
When I start a manual IMAP session and login as that user, select INBOX, and try the command:
. search subject "something"
It returns zero mail ID's; this is consistent across all searches using IMAP - no results returned, no matter what I search for in IMAP.
The dovecot -n command returns:
