Hi there Community,

I am currently setting up a Dovecot Mailserver, which works fine with some basic configuration (Dovecot + Sendmail). Sending and receiving Mails is just fine. For improving timings, I wanted to activate the prefetch user database - but apparently it doesn't seem to work correctly - I hope you can help me out!

When I activate the prefetch user database, every time I get a "passdb didn't return userdb entries" from my mail.debug logs.

Here's my config:

passdb { driver = pam }

# (I authenticate via PAM which is itself configured to ask ldap server, ldap returns it back to PAM - so Dovecot only sees the PAM-authentication part)

userdb { driver = prefetch }

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

# My userdb is going over ldap.

Relevant parts of /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext:

. .. user_attrs = uidNumber=50014,gidNumber=2084,modem-quota=quota_rule=*:storage=%$

user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))

pass_attrs = uidNumber==50014,gidNumber=2084

I'm not sure.... maybe it's because of the PAMLDAPPAM? Or am I missing out something other fundamental? Thanks for any insights, Megodin
