dovecot - Jun 2011 - Extra plugins vía extrafield in ldap

Hi all,

I'm using dovecot 2.0.9 and I have a config like this:

dovecot.conf:

passdb {
   args = /etc/dovecot/conf.d/passwd-ldap.conf
   driver = ldap
}

mail_plugins = $mail_plugins quota

plugin {
  autocreate = INBOX.SPAM
  autocreate2 = INBOX.NoSPAM
  autosubscribe = INBOX.SPAM
  autosubscribe2 = INBOX.NoSPAM
  quota = maildir
}

protocol imap {
   mail_plugins = $mail_plugins imap_quota autocreate
}


And in passwd-ldap.conf I have some like this to add extra plugins:

user_attrs =
homeDirectory=home,uid=user,mailQuota=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$,mailPlugins=mail_plugins


With this. I can see that dovecot load all plugins from settings, but
in the user session, I can get only the plugins that I have selected
in mailPlugins field

If i check some like this:
  mailPlugins=mail_plugins=$mail_plugins %$,

The imap session user is aborted after login.


How can I add extra plugins by ldap without put on ldap all user plugins?

This completely overrides mail_plugins setting..

$mail_plugins variable works only inside dovecot.conf while the settings
are being parsed.

The best you can do now is:

mailPlugins=mail_plugins=plugin1,plugin2,plugin3,%$

i.e. list the global plugins in here as well as in the global
mail_plugins setting.
