Hi, I have a Dovecot test installation with MySQL userbase and
authentication where I am trying to setup last_login plugin with SQL
dictionary
I figured out I have to use dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext instead of
dovecot-sql.conf.ext

I configured dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext this way:

driver= mysql
connect = {the connect string that works for user lookup}
map {
   pattern = last-login
   table = mailbox
   username_field = username
}

And I defined the plugin this way:

plugin {
   last_login_dict = sql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext
   last_login_key = last-login/%u # default
}

But I still get the same error:

Error: last_login_dict: dict_init(sql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext)
failed: Unknown dict module: sql


It's been said here before, and I'll echo it again -- better documentation for dict would be helpful, a step-by-step guide to its principles of operation, rather than just the anecdotal examples we have, out of which we're supposed to extrapolate.

"The above SQL example uses dictionary proxy process (see below), because SQL libraries aren't linked to all Dovecot binaries. The file and Redis examples use direct access. "

http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Quota/Dict

I guess you have to use the proxy.

So maybe something like

plugin {
   last_login_dict = proxy::lastlogin
}

dict {
  lastlogin = mysql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext
}

I'll try it later myself, thanks for taking it thus far :-) I've been meaning to try this out but was rather perplexed.
