[Dovecot] doveadm doesn't seem to honor mail_location, mail_uid, mail_gid
I am adjusting the recommended ldap configuration to match active directory instead of the standard posixaccount layout. The problem is that doveadm seems to ignore mail_uid and mail_gid along with (possibly) mail_location. This is a setup with all virtual users (all ldap, not system accounts). Everything works in postfix and standard dovecot operation, it is only doveadm which doesn't work. Ldap queries return everything but these entries (as they do not exist in AD). These items I have tried setting in the configuration and in environment variables. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Do you start it as root, or the wanted mail_uid/mail_gid? What is the result, does it give an error message or run as some other uid/gid? Anyway, it should work.
