Hello,
I though this bug should be reported, although there is workaround
already made and in use.
Dovecot 2.2.10 crashes into out of memory error when there is defined
system users (userdb+passdb) and own virtual users (userdb+passdb).
Removing either one solves the issue and Dovecot is working as it
should. When memory leak (I replaced pw_init and gr_init with the
version that is found from 2.1.17) is fixed from lib/ipwd.c source, the
auth worker gets to infinite loop and authentication timeouts(timeout
was increased, but worker does not end what ever it's doing). This far I
got chance to debug this before other passdb was removed due lack of time.
Here's logs, configs and backtrace:
