<div>Thanks Aki - the trick was finding where that setting
was! Found it in auth-system.conf.ext.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Commented it out and all works perfectly now.</div>

<div>Thanks again Aki,</div>

<div>I'll throw in my 2 cents that it'd be great for a
passdb/userdb block to have a setting to suppress that
message. I've actually changed my mind and *not* used extra
userdbs in the past (despite there being good reasons to use
them) entirely due to that log entry. We've got millions of
mailboxes and the noise in the logs would be unreal. And it
would cause no end of confusion for ops people looking at
logs. I weighed the likelihood that I'd end up being asked a
million times why a login failed, when in reality it hadn't,
and decided it wasn't worth the headache.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Or alternatively only log that error when *all* of the
passdbs/userdbs have failed. Anything would be better than
logging what *looks* like an error but isn't. And, yes, i
see 'info' in the log entry, but 'unknown user' is far more
eye-catching.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is the part where someone points out that there
already *is* a setting for this and I stop talking :) <br>
