Not worked configuring this in 10-director.conf, but this worked for my
stuff
Configured iterate_ stuff in dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
Uncommented !include auth-ldap.conf.ext in conf.d/10-auth.conf
In 20-imap.conf
protocol imap {
...
passdb {
driver = static
args = proxy=y nopassword=y
}
}
in 20-pop3.conf
protocol pop3 {
...
passdb {
driver = static
args = proxy=y nopassword=y
}
}
in 20-managesieve.conf
protocol sieve {
...
passdb {
driver = static
args = proxy=y nopassword=y
}
}
Now everything is working ok, director, doveadm etc, well... I guess, I will
continue testing and let you know the results guys
best regards
