One day, I'll use the LDAP. But infrastructure I got is quite neglected
and some older admins is hard to convince to innovate. Just, aaaaah :)
I read whole documentation related to userdb a and passdb. Easy to
understand with relation to IMAP or POP3 access. But what I didn't
understand is relation to LMTP. Which one is used and when for
successful delivery.
I'll try to move those settings as global.
Thank you, Milo

Is there some reason why you cannot use LDAP as userdb? Those uid / gid
/ home parameters can be also provided as global settings like
mail_uid=vmail
mail_gid=vmail
mail_home=/data/vmail/user/%n

Hi,
I have the Dovecot (2.2.27-3+deb9u2) with LMTP and Postfix. Static
userdb:
userdb {
driver = static
args = uid=vmail gid=vmail home=/data/vmail/user/%n allow_all_users=yes
}
and passdb by LDAP, only to verify IMAP user password by bind.
Problem is, when someone sends email to non-exist...@mydomain.tld,
Dovecot automatically creates its home directory and Maildir.
Is there any way how deliver only when /data/vmail/user/%n directory
already exists, and reject otherwise?
When I remove allow_all_users=yes, LMTP stops to deliver at all with
550 code. I probably understand why, but I cannot figure how to solve
it. I cannot use LDAP to user lookup.
