dovecot - Sep 2012 - Syntax for doveadm auth cache

Hello,

	What is the correct syntax of doveadm auth cache command? According to 
command line help:

usage: doveadm [-Dv] [-f <formatter>] <command> [<args>]

   altmove      [-u <user>|-A] [-S <socket_path>] [-r] <search
query>
   auth         [-a <auth socket path>] [-x <auth info>]
<user> [<password>]
   auth         cache

	but when I try to run doveadm auth cache, then I'm asked for a 
password, so I think the command is trying to authenticate cache user.

	Moreover... according to previous mails (thread 
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2012-June/066691.html) there is a 
patch to remove a specific user entry from cache. This patch I think is 
included in dovecot 2.1.9 (which I'm running) and the syntax is (I think):

doveadm auth cache flush <user>
4 cache entries flushed

	So I'm running this command. Whenever I run it, I get the message that 
3 (sometimes, is 4) entries are removed, but user information isn't 
really reloaded and I doubt it is really removed from cache (I have the 
user in a passwd-file and information used by imap processes is still 
the old one, no the new one, changed before the flush)

Yep.

Works in my tests.
