Do you know what is Dovecot's default SQL query time out and with which 
parameter can I maybe increase that timeout?

Thanks for the hint regarding the userdb prefetch, that makes sense and I have 
now put the userdb prefetch before the userdb SQL as recommended.

Doing that I also noticed that in my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf I still 
have the system user authentication enabled with this line:


!include auth-system.conf.ext

although I am using SQL only (PostgreSQL). Can I safely disable this line you 
think?

1st bet is that the SQL query timed out. It is bad sign.

you should place userdb prefetch before userdb sql. The current order 
makes no sense. But this is not the source of your problem.
