Hello Dovecot Team,
I am currently using *Dovecot 2.4.1* with *Windows Active Directory* via LDAPS (self-signed certificate).
I have configured a *bind DN template* for authentication.
Authentication works perfectly. However, when Dovecot tries to perform the *userdb lookup*, it seems to *ignore the DN template*. Instead, it attempts to perform a search using the *ldap_base and filter* I configured...
According to the documentation, the *bind DN template should be sufficient*, and Dovecot should not need to perform this search.
Additionally, if I *remove the ldap_base or filter fields*, Dovecot fails with an error and cannot perform the lookup at all.
This results in doveadm user failing, even though authentication succeeds.
Could this be a bug in the way Dovecot handles bind_userdn for LDAP userdb lookups?
I would appreciate any guidance or confirmation on this behavior.
Thank you for your help.
