dovecot - Jan 2010 - ldap login with userid

hi..

Dovecot Version 1.2.9

im trying to login to dovecot with my ldap uid.

currently im using:
user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uid=mail=maildir:/mail/%$
user_filter =
(&(objectClass=gosaMailAccount)(|(mail=%u)(gosaMailAlternateAddress=%u)))
to match the mailaddress and deliver the mail to the users homdir
(/mail/uid_of_the_user)

But i cant login to dovecot:
pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password
pass_filter = (&(objectClass=gosaMailAccount)(uid=%u))

the Log:

passdb lookup succeeds, because uid=%u matches. But then you're doing a
userdb lookup from mail or gosaMailAlternateAddress, instead of from uid
field like with passdb.

Two possibilities I guess:

a) add |(uid=%u) to user_filter

b) Change username to gosaMailAccount's value in passdb lookup, by
using:

pass_attrs = gosaMailAccount=user,userPassword=password

Dunno which one would be correct in your case.
