Hi,
I'm running a postfix smtp relay server on which users are getting
authenticated trough sasl via the dovecot authentication service. This works
without problems.
Recently I extended my configuration to authenticate users with the PLAIN
mechanism against Azure AD B2C with oauth2 in the future.
Important to mention is that currently no users are stored in Azure B2C. I only
prepared the hole configuration and authentiucation falls back to
mysql database.
Now sometimes I get the error below in my logs (not permanently):
...
Dec 7 11:36:49 relay-out1 dovecot: auth: Panic: file oauth2-request.c: line 201
(oauth2_request_start): assertion failed:
