Done. Thanks for the quick help. I disabled the code which does the
check and this solved our problem.<br>

For historic reasons, there is no consistency with which username in
individuals mail client. NSS correctly returns the name that dovecot
should use for the purposes of accessing mailboxes etc.
Dovecot-0.99.14 worked fine in this regard - but since upgrading to
1.0beta3 we have this problem. It's running on a Fedora Core 4 server.
It compiled fine with selinux enabled.
Is there a switch to control the response to this NSS behaviour?

Well, you could simply remove the check from src/auth/userdb-passwd.c.
Perhaps I could make this also optional. I'd anyway not want to remove that
check completely because nss_ldap is still not fixed.
