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?

The current order makes no sense.
