Hello listmembers, we have some trouble connecting postfix to dovecot. after a lot of hours the transport and delivery is working but dovecot can't get the correct user.
postmap -q [EMAIL PROTECTED] ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap-aliases.cf first returns: someuser The mailbox someuser exists and i can login with this user on imap and i can deliver directly using deliver -d but on mail delivery thrue postfix dovecot is not looking for someuser. It looks for [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---8<------ May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/pickup[24686]: C94251DB23E: uid=0 from=<root> May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/cleanup[24769]: C94251DB23E: message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/qmgr[24544]: C94251DB23E: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=322, nrcpt=1 (queue active) May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): master in: USER 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] service=deliver May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): ldap([EMAIL PROTECTED]): user search: base=dc=domain,dc=com scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=posixAccount)([EMAIL PROTECTED])) fields=mail,homeDirectory May 3 16:18:42 mail dovecot: auth(default): master out: USER 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] home=/var/mail/dovecot/someuser uid=100 gid=12 May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/pipe[24772]: C94251DB23E: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, orig_to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=dovecot, delay=0.04, delays=0.02/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered via dovecot service) May 3 16:18:42 mail postfix/qmgr[24544]: C94251DB23E: removed ---8<------ It seems that postfix or dovecot appends the hostname to the mailboxname. But i cant figure out which of both. If i change the uid to [EMAIL PROTECTED] on ldap-server anything works fine. how can i fix this? i dont know if anyone needs config files for diagnostic. if so - please tell me and i post the needed informations. best regards Andre Hoepner
