We received no replies to this email that we sent a few days ago. We're not sure why. If we miss something that is obvious to everybody, kindly point it out. We ẃould like to get iteration working, to be able to mass-delete specific emails from all mailboxes, in case of for example received virusses...

Here is my question again:

Hi,

User iteration doesn't work, we're getting:

auth: Error: Trying to iterate users, but userdbs don't support it

The way I understand it, I need to set iterate_attrs and iterate_filter for iteration to work. I have set it (see configs below) and yet dovecot says "userdbs don't support it". What else do I need to do to enable it?

Our config is against samba Active Directory ldap and generally works fine. Can anyone here take a quick look at the configs below, and tell me how to make doveadm user -u "*" work?

Below are our configs. Any tips would be appreciated...!
