Hello there,

Everything was working fine on Dovecot 2.2.10 (on CentOS 7), but after updating 
to version 2.2.36, our director servers are not able to proxy LMTP.

We are sending mail from exim to the local Dovecot LMTP socket, which then used 
to send it to our internal mail servers on port 24.

Besides the update, nothing has changed in the config files.  The configuration 
has been working great for months … Then we had a great idea of doing holiday 
maintenance.

(Currently, we are working around this issue by having exim send mail to the IP 
and port, instead of the socket.)

Doing a tcpdump capture shows no TCP traffic either.  The logs seem to say that 
it is trying to go to port 0, so my guess is that it’s not getting the port 
directive from either static or sql — since the docs state that if these 
settings aren't specified, it will always use the same connection type for the 
proxy that it received the connection on.

Any thoughts?  I can share config if necessary.
