Hello,

I'm experiencing a serious issue with dovecot rc15.
When using dovecot as mail delivery agent with ldap account and
auth_bind=yes, dovecot gets broken and all deliveries are deferred.
After a chat with the main dovecot developer on IRC, he told me theses
bug has been fixed in rc18, however it's too late to get rc18 into etch.
It's time to speed up and include the upstream fix for this bug
into etch package !

Here is the two fixes which MUST be included into rc15 debian package :
http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2007-January/007447.html
http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2007-January/007453.html

My justification for setting this bug 'serious' is dovecot is used by
many people in huge infrastructures, where user accounts are often stored
into a ldap directory. Current version won't work.

Best regards, Adam Cécile.
