Hi, I'm configuring a farm of dovecot proxies redirecting users to backend servers. The decision of which backend server is used for a user is based in its ldap account information. In my previous configuration I was using an inherited director configuration in these proxy servers, but now I was wondering that because the decision is made according to user information, I don't need to run director. Do it? Is there any advantage of running director in this scenario? -- Angel L.

Are your logs detailed enough to show what (if anything) director is doing with your current setup? -- Apple broke AppleScripting signatures in Mail.app, so no random signatures.
Hi, I'm trying this configuration without using director... My problem now is that I can't use doveadm commands in the proxy host. In my previous configuration (with director) I could. Configurations I have found (https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Director) always talk about director. Is there any documentation about how to configure doveadm in proxy hosts without director?
