How to delete "proxy" attribute in passdb lookup?
Hi,
I have a complicated SQL backend with stored procedures to generate passdb/userdb queries. This result have the proxy-attribute set and it's very complicated to change that procedures.
On one system I tried to override/delete the proxy attribute:
passdb { driver = sql
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext override_fields = proxy=n }
Looks like that doesn't work. "proxy" is always set.
doveadm auth lookup username passdb: username user : username host : mailserver proxy hostip : xx.xx.xx.xx
Is there any way to override/delete an existing true/false attribute like "proxy"?

Not right now, because any value at all is treated as "true" (and I'm pretty sure even empty value). I suppose the best solution would be to finally change all the passdb/userdb/plugin boolean values to actually support "no" value as not being enabled. It's something that we're thinking about for Dovecot v2.3.
It would probably also be useful to add support for removing a field entirely, such as returning "-proxy" (where the =value would be ignored). I'm not entirely sure how useful that would be though.

Okay, I expected that, thanks for clarification.

Why don't just enable
override_fields = proxy=
so, just use "attribue=<nothing>" to delete it?

There could be some settings which are wanted to be explicitly cleared. For example in dovecot.conf have "mail_plugins=foo" while in passdb it could be disabled with "mail_plugins=". There are probably some better examples.
