Looking for some advise.
Hmmm, I am glad I took the time to arrange a proper ldap infrastructure. What ever gets hammered stays local
What I'm hoping is that dovecot has some way to in case of such "authentication backend" problem scenarios to ignore protocol and politeness and simply disconnect the client, ie, just shut the connection without saying anything, this could even be with a small delay (I'd say 1 second or so, just to avoid tight auth retry loops, up to 4 or 5 seconds IMHO would be fine).
auth_failure_delay = 2 secs ?
