I have
1x proxy/director server
2x backend mail server
The backend servers are using a ldap database and do not have the option
to put a proxy=y value. So I put this as a default in the passdb option
in the proxy/director config. When I do telnet localhost 110 on the
proxy/director, I can authenticate with a test account on svr1.local
1. Will automatically all users be directed to the first server
configured in director_mail_servers = svr1.local svr2.local, when the do
not have a proxy=y or host=?
If this is the case maybe, we should write this somewhere on
https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director
https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/proxies/
2. If I change the host= in the ldap server, I think the proxy/director
has archived the previous host and still redirects to the old value. Is
there a way around this? (stopping/starting dovecot -F resolves this)
3. Do I need the director even in this setup?
