Thanks Stephan.

I know it’s not a major thing, it’s just that it is every third line of my log. 

Ie I get the auth-worker unknown user, then successful imap-login, then the imap logout.

So I’m just trying to figure out what is causing the auth-worker lookup failure so I can fix it. I did not have this in my old mail server, just the new one I’ve setup.

Is it a database issue or a Dovecot config issue? If so where?

Thanks,

James.
