The problem is most likely that login process is running chrooted.
login_chroot=no would help.
It does - thanks a lot, I had been struggling for hours!
Another way would be to do this in dovecot-auth, but if it's done there it should be done asynchronously (or in auth worker processes) and doing async dns lookups would require some async dns library..
Now, I think I understand why you had not done something like this already.
- Copying some files into the chroot may be one way...
- When you say auth-worker processes, do you mean I need to create a separate helper program just to do DNS lookups?
Let me try... :-)
There is one more thing I need to do - create a config variable/file which contains the list of 'host' values which refer to the local system - then we will be set.
