One more thing: I think dovecot-shared file is pointless. It can be implemented by taking the rw-permissions from the Maildir directory (or mbox file). Only problem that I see is if Maildir unintentionally has too wide permissions, this change would make the created mails have too wide permission

Well, I've really no idea. I know it works for many people and I couldn't get it to break when stress testing with hundreds of connections per second. More info: In the 5 minutes between when Nagios flagged IMAP as down (and we tested it as down) until we restarted Dovecot, 103 authentications

Some ideas from the peanut gallery here -- if you run 'ldd dovecot-auth', what openldap library is it linked into? The system libldap_r library, which is a 2.2.x release. Have you tried compiling dovecot against this new 2.3.32 openldap install? Nope; that's on my list of things to try today
