Hi,
Thanks for your response. The error/warning log was indeed not included.
I looked it up now, and dovecot only printed the following error:
Aug 1 21:31:55 xcx dovecot: auth: Error:
ldap(info@xxx.com,xxxxx,
This shouldn't really be a problem, because the user does indeed not exist in ldap, but only in the passwd-file. The problem also exists with auth cache disabled.
And my doveconf (the passdb order is the working order here): # 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 7.6 auth_cache_size = 2 M mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir mail_plugins = virtual managesieve_notify_capability = mailto managesieve_sieve_capability = fileinto reject envelope encoded-character vacation subaddress comparator-i;ascii-numeric relational regex imap4flags copy include variables body enotify environment mailbox date ihave namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk } mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use = \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } mailbox virtual/Flagged { special_use = \Flagged } prefix = } passdb { args = scheme=CRYPT username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/users driver = passwd-file } passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext driver = ldap } plugin { sieve = /var/vmail/%d/%n/.dovecot.sieve sieve_dir = /var/vmail/%d/%n/sieve } postmaster_address = postmaster@xxx.com protocols = " imap lmtp sieve pop3" service auth { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix-mailing/private/auth { mode = 0666 } unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth { mode = 0666 } } service lmtp { unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot-lmtp { group = postfix mode = 0600 user = postfix } user = vmail } service managesieve-login { inet_listener sieve { port = 4190 } } ssl_ca =

Today I upgraded my dovecot to a newer version (2.2.9 debian wheezy-backports) At that moment I also reconfigured the whole thing a bit nicer.
Now I stumbled on the following issue. .. The only thing I changed here was the order the passdb backends.
It works fine now, but it not clear to me why the order is so important. Could somebody explain this? Or is this some bug?
I can't reproduce it. Also did your log contain also the errors/warnings? It appeared that it was failing with some internal error, which you didn't show in the log. Also does it work if you disable auth cache? Full doveconf -n output may have been helpful also.
