Well, I get a valid proxy config on passdb-ldap return pass_attrs like
that (in the opossite way to
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields#LDAP )

pass_attrs = uid=user,=proxy=y,=nopassword=y,=port=1143,=host=192.168.13.100

But, if I remove the "host", and leave director to fill it, director never acts.
