Hi Patrick, do you want to use the proxy *without* the director? Then you would need to remove all director_... entries from your proxy config.
The proxy backend is controlled by passdb extra fields. Here is how to setup a proxy without the director: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/PasswordDatabase/ExtraFields/Proxy You need to keep the password database up-to-date and ensure to not return an unhealthy backend IP in the "host" extra field, since the knowledge of the proxy (as mentioned in the blog) is simply read from the passdb database. Database content needs to be maintained by external tools. Regards Daniel
