Hi,

I see a very peculiar Dovecot (2.3.21.1) authentication failure that concerns exactly one user:

Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Debug: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: Handling PASSV request Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Debug: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: passwd(REDACTED_UID,84.136.89.217,<yZxQxMA8uL1UiFnZ>): Performing passdb lookup Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Debug: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: passwd(REDACTED_UID,84.136.89.217,<yZxQxMA8uL1UiFnZ>): lookup Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Error: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: passwd(REDACTED_UID,84.136.89.217,<yZxQxMA8uL1UiFnZ>): getpwnam() failed: Resource temporarily unavailable Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Debug: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: passwd(REDACTED_UID,84.136.89.217,<yZxQxMA8uL1UiFnZ>): Finished passdb lookup Aug 20 02:08:05 Bounce dovecot: auth-worker(13245): Debug: conn unix:auth-worker (pid=3029,uid=81): auth-worker<24>: Finished: internal_failure

This used to work, until a few months ago it stopped. The user can still authenticate to send mail through the same server. Changing the password didn't make a difference.

Any ideas?

Cheerio,
Hauke
