doesn't exist (using built-in default iterate_query: SELECT username,

Why is dovecot trying to "select username, domain from users" when the
"service auth" is setup to "select homedir, maildir, sieve_dir, from
MAILBOXES.... the same with the password query except for selecting
password from mail.mailboxes.

The expire dictionary is EXACTLY like the example you posted in the wiki2.

I can't remember whether I posted this thread before or not; I remember
writing it two days ago but I'm not sure if I sent it as I can't find it
in this "mailing lists" folder.

You need to adjust iterate_query setting in
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext to your needs

See also:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Tools/Doveadm/Expunge?highlight=(iterate_query)



Could you explain the iterate_query in any kind of sql. I'm guessing to just use the query, correctly, that's failing as iterate_query= and put it in the service auth file which includes password_query and user_query. then, I'm guessing to add something like:

iteratedb {
driver = sql
args = /path/to/sql.conf
}

The wiki2 only says:

"When the SQL userdb module is used make sure that the iterate_query setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches your database layout."

it should give an example query. I don't know if its wanting to list the fields or the contents of a field.
