how exactly is the syntax to override a userdb field within the passdb configuration? I cannot find any documentation on this in the wiki.

Let's say, I'd like to override the userdb extra field "chroot" with /var/mail. How exactly would be the notation?

could you post a complete conf and how/where you use the value?

My auth-sql.conf.ext looks like this:

passdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext } userdb { driver = sql args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext }

I already tried these modifications within the passdb area: override_fields = userdb_chroot=/var/mail override_fields = userdb:chroot=/var/mail override_fields = %{userdb:chroot}=/var/mail override_fields = %{userdb_chroot}=/var/mail

but none of the above returned /var/mail when I tried to hand %{userdb:chroot} to an external script.

Thanks for your help, Thomas Möhle
