Hi,

But this harmless is spamming logs, so how to disable it:

grep auth-client-connection.c:338 maillog | wc -l 1259

Actually this specific event leak isn't a known issue. I don't really understand how it could happen. These event leaks are supposed to be checked only at process deinit. Is the auth process constantly being shutdown and restarted? What's your doveconf -n? Are you using Dovecot for SMTP authentication or some other external auth?
