Dear list,
We are finally back to our task of migrating from cyrus to dovecot. dovecot mostly does what we want in terms of POP3/IMAP server. Now we are preparing for migration. The plan is to use dovecot as proxy for not-yet migrated accounts. This works wonderfully for IMAP but not for LMTP. Here's what I find in the logs when I try to deliver e-mail to the dovecot lmtp port:
Jun 25 19:03:06 klee dovecot: lmtp(5037): Debug: none: root=, index=, indexpvt=, control=, inbox=, alt= Jun 25 19:03:06 klee dovecot: lmtp(5037): Connect from IP-address Jun 25 19:03:06 klee dovecot: lmtp(5037): Debug: user USER: Auth PASS lookup returned temporary failure: reason=Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups Jun 25 19:03:06 klee dovecot: lmtp(5037): Debug: auth input: reason=Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups
Delivery works fine without proxy (lmtp_proxy = no). What I would need to do is to configure the proxy part so that POP3/IMAP uses the accounts username/password and LMTP uses a special account to deliver e-mail.
This is dovecot-ldap.auth (the =proxy=y will be replaced by a field from ldap once the tests work):
uris = ldaps://our.ldap.server/ tls = no auth_bind = yes base = dc=mur,dc=at deref = never scope = subtree user_attrs = =home=/srv/vmail/mail/%Lu,=uid=999,=gid=999 user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u)) pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password,=proxy=y,=host=our.imap.server,=starttls=yes iterate_attrs = uid=user iterate_filter = (objectClass=posixAccount)
