To me it seems that dovecot-lda is just ignoring all my LDAP
configuration. I now added
=mail=maildir:%{ldap:mailMessageStore}/Maildir
to user_attrs, but dovecot still logs
Home directory not set for user. Can't expand ~/ for mail root
dir in: ~/Maildir
Do I have to include the configuration somewhere else? It's only
referenced in auth-ldap.conf.ext twice (passdb, userdb):
root@mailtest:/etc/dovecot# grep ldap /etc/dovecot/conf.d/*
conf.d/10-auth.conf:!include auth-ldap.conf.ext
conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext: driver = ldap
conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext: args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext
conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext: driver = ldap
conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext: args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext

Ok. The problem seems to be something different. I found out that even if
I pass the real username (foo-example.com) to dovecot-lda, dovecot tells
me
Error: User initialization failed: Namespace 'INBOX.': Home directory
not set for user. Can't expand ~/ for mail root dir in: ~/Maildir
Why does dovecot find the home when accessed via IMAP, but not when
accessed via dovecot-lda?
actually good question. I have to admit I only use LMTP and for that it
works for me.
I left out some more settings which might be important for you:
pass_attrs = uid=user
user_attrs =
uid=user,=uid=600,=gid=600,=home=/srv/dovecot/%n,suseImapQuota=quota_rule=*:storage=%{ldap:suseImapQuota}M
since obviously the search itself it not sufficient. You need to make sure
that the right mailbox is addressed in the end via the uid=user
In your configuration you do not return a user at all so this can be a
problem IMHO.
