Re: [Dovecot] director ignoring director_mail_servers for lmtp connections

how I can redirect incoming lmtp request to backend lmtp servers (and not just one)? what I'm missing here?

director_mail_servers = 101.180.245.101 director_servers = 101.180.245.101

Is this a loop maybe? director_mail_servers should list all your backend dovecot servers, space separated. Here's mine:

director_mail_servers = 192.168.42.7 192.168.42.8 192.168.42.9 192.168.42.10 192.168.42.11 192.168.42.28 192.168.42.29

and director_servers should list all your director servers so that they can share info on where to direct each user, like:

director_servers = 192.168.42.15 192.168.42.17

Then, if this is configured correctly "doveadm director status" should list your backend director_mail_servers:

$ sudo doveadm director status mail server ip vhosts users 192.168.42.28 100 5220 192.168.42.29 100 4733 <snip> $ sudo doveadm director status janfrode@tanso.net Current: 192.168.42.28 (expires 2011-09-13 08:46:42) Hashed: 192.168.42.28 Initial config: 192.168.42.11
