> Dovecot only sees the PAM-authentication part)PAM does not return userdb-relevant information. You cannot use userdb prefetch.
You could switch to first ask a ldap passdb and then, for users that have another password in LDAP, pam.
I use PAM because of the easyness of blocking specific validated users - you can just add/remove them in a plain text file. Easy administration will be necessary because of the planned huge amount of users on the system (28.000), and sometimes blocking a user is highly time-dependent (e.g. if one answers to a phising mail and sending out his credentials which are then abused for sending spam).
I would go over LDAP if there is an equivalent easy way to solve this over LDAP (easy blocking out users by e.g editing a plain text file) - is there any?
Thanks, Megodin
