LMTP error, mysterious

you mean i should define another, "fallback" userdb service if prefetch
doesn't work for some reason?
is it the problem that it's a chicken and egg scenario and with LMTP
address verification (from postfix) there is no login beforehand so then
dovecot needs to consult the userdb once again and having no fallback
mechanism, it gives up? i can understand that, but then it would need to
be emphasized in either the prefetch document or the lmtp document on
the wiki.
i've tried it and now it works, thank you ever so much. (but please make
a mental note to add this info on the wiki.)
cheers,
